So under the nose of a king, who exists, we patronize people. There is no respect for even a king.

The reason is clear. It has to do with the aura of the king.

But what does a king believe to be allowed to be a king?
 
What are you talking about?

I'm sorry, but this makes no sense at all.

I understand that English is not your first language – but are you Dutch? Those who I have spoken to have a good command of English – way better than this...

There is little point in posting when your posts make no sense.

Nose. So yeah I am from the Netherlands. What is wrong with the word nose?
 
And I am told to call it The Netherlands. It's only that those whoI have met in the UK and in the Netherlands, have a good command of English.
 
So trying to understand i googled nose of a king and found this

The King's Nose: An Ecological Fairytale: A book about a king who plots to kill bees and other flying creatures after being stung on his nose by a bee. The king ignores the warning of Alexander, the smallest man at arms, who tries to explain the connection between pollination and flying creatures. The king's actions lead to famine in the kingdom.

I thought it was interesting as her name is spiritualbee

(IMO) it's a lesson to those in 'high' positions in all walks of life, should not regard themselves as above anyone else and should consider their advice.
In the above story, the king should , at least, have investigated the information from Alexander, but his ego prevented him.
 
...being stung on his nose...
...can easy lead to aversion. That's why simply stick to precepts, virtue: not killing living being, not taking not given, not speaking untruth, no useless talks and low topics, no speech intended to break people appart, no rude words of the lane, no illicitly sensual pleasures, not taking intoxication causing shamelessness.

The more power, the more dangers of wrong deeds.

The story lacks of right judgment, suggesting that wrong could be justified and so the advices of Alexander had been actually biased and defiled. Actually not supporting the well-being and good future of the King by encouraging toward harmlessness, but just having his own gains and lose in mind.

A good example was played out in the Australian parliament while the King was here in Australia. The respect was lost during the colonisation process.
The reason is clear. It has to do with the aura of the king.
Not so clear, as a King may not be agreeable to past actions that brought disdain to a monarchy, but peoles feelings carry over to the new King/Queen.
But what does a king believe to be allowed to be a king?
Their best foundation is that of being humbled in God's Law and the wisdom to impart God's Love and Justice to humanity.

Interesting.
 
What is the need to bring in God here? The king should be humane, wise, so that he know what he is doing and his actions should not create problems for the future.
I THINK WE MUST UNDERSTAND OUR SYSTEM FIRST. We have the outchosen people as the elected seen as power of the fittest. In other words no God, no religion, no out chosen people, no elected no king, no monarch no heritage. The question remain if that would be so bad. I do also not know how important morality is. In this case I do not understand much about with what they mean about good and evil, also a biblical aspect that I think our system is based upon. So I don't know whif that is important or not and if religion actually is based on power and power on money and wealth to control the world. I think this is a very complecated case to begin with. I don't know where to start, I don't know where to begin. I think many people prefure atheism but on the other hand seek a legal way to rule even if that would mean being evil and corrupted and not really believe in a God but call themselves the elected to claim that biblical right to proof their point as if it is true to make it legally accepted. And how would society be with no system at all as they teach us in all religions and philosophies for the need of virtue to make things seem honest and fair to legalize their political deeds.

Mainly because Kingship was given by God. Baha'u'llah has also allowed the continued appointments of monarchs and offered the Queen of England had done well to allow the rule by parliament.

"Although a republican form of government profiteth all the peoples of the world, yet the majesty of kingship is one of the signs of God. We do not wish that the countries of the world should remain deprived thereof. If the sagacious combine the two forms into one, great will be their reward in the presence of God."

And to the Queen,

"We have also heard that thou hast entrusted the reins of counsel into the hands of the representatives of the people. Thou, indeed, hast done well, for thereby the foundations of the edifice of thine affairs will be strengthened, and the hearts of all that are beneath thy shadow, whether high or low, will be tranquillized. It behoveth them, however, to be trustworthy among His servants, and to regard themselves as the representatives of all that dwell on earth."

Why then feeling not protected and haunted?
What unfair if sure that getting the results of right and wrong without possibility of interfere. Not knowing of what right, what's wrong, does of course also not exclude simple principles and falls into the very wrong category, good householder.

A simple som teaches us that in the end good becomes bad or evil En evil becomes white as white in the end becomes black and black in the end becomes white. For so far that the knowledge of good and evil is very complex.

No, it isn't, it's simple and sure. Maybe good householder confuses "like and dislike" with "right and wrong". This moment liking, the next hating... that's normal worldly thing, which newer could be generalized for common folk: eg. demo-crazy and pseudo-liberalism.
And where is there and end or beginning traceable?

Maybe good householder likes to give this an liberating read (of course it depents on whether currently liking or disliking, angry or confident): Wisdom over Justice and/or Justice vs. Skillfulness

For one caught in common sense, not knowing something beyond preferences, it's not easy to imagine that maybe disliked is actual not hostile at all, even a good and an immeasurable gift. Preoccupations always act wrong and harmful for one, turn then into the opposite quick, again and again.

That uneducated 19th Century Iranian?
That is called licking the shoes.

Indeed, because that is what philosophy is all about.
