well recently I have been on some rollercoaster. And Kuro I do in ways have to say thanks I have been getting to know Inari Sama better then I ever have been. She has been stern at times but also such a Mother figure I often times feel like I can cry. Anyway thanks. Yes I am still new in many ways. But even doing deep research and helping another who is  a Nogitsune, he asks a question that I try and answer but sometimes, it seems its not good enough the question about a Myobu code not directly interfearing in "human affairs" he always asks why and what exatacly does it mean? I say something like you cannot say but it when a husband and wife are fighting most is common sence then he asks about aint it still interfereing even if a baby is rolling down a hill even if your protecting someone your still "intervening" so can another Myobu help me on this? what exactly does this code mean?

We can do things to help people, but only what we as humans are able to do.  We should not, cannot at the moment, and must not use our abilities nor ask Inari-sama to intervene in how humans interact with each other, as this can lead to an "elitist" state of mind.  If we try to control the way people live, they'll begin to hate us, hunt us.  This cannot happen, so we avoid doing so.  That's what the "code" means.

:) thanks for a clearer meaning of what that code means.  I did not want to all of a sudden one day get the code wrong.

how or if humans intervene in how humans interact with each other is a doubtful thing

some have the rule not to interact at all as long as not asked for.
asking for is not cool. now that's play safe.

regulations everywhere. and no, i do not mean to say mix yourself into stuff and screw whatever code you cherish.
i simply see the same idea with different names in many, many places.

never change a running system

:determined:
However, just because you don't want to repeat past mistakes doesn't mean that you should avoid repeating past virtues.
 -.-
And by the way, do you really have as little confidence in your fortitude that you fear you could develop an "elitist" state of mind even though you are fully aware of it?
 :conf:
That being said, the decision itself is yours alone.

What's the difference between following and following? But yeah, that's the word.

Lead, follow, or get out of the way.

     As long as life is not at stake, a Celestial Myobu should not interfere. However, it is still their choice. They also have to wait until a prayer for intervention is made to make it legal for the Myobu to interfere, which is when all Hell breaks loose. Angering a Celestial Myobu is NOT a good idea.
