I guess “tamantha” is similar to certain buddhist ideas, right? Dharma, as define as “law” or ‘teachings’ is sometimes used to refer to the natural order, like, “The dharma of a coffee cup is to hold coffee.”
Of course, the line about iniquity made me think of Karma, so often misunderstood. Pretty much like Miss Anthem here (so either she never bothered to study it or Tamantha is different than Karma). The way I understand it, it’s not about punishment. It’s just …”Actions have consequences.” That’s Karma.
Tamantha is a bit like karma if it had been created by a Puritan’s interpretation of the Old Testament God; karma mixed with a lot of moral designations (“this is clean; this is unclean”) and a fondness for sevenfold vengeance.
But Vish can probably explain it better than I can–We’ll have to wait for the next page. 🙂
Woo! New site! Shiny!
