Not the reflection of a mob, family, neighborhood, institution, nation, humanity or any of the other imaginatively manufactured connections observers create to take the heat off themselves so they can cling to their self-righteousness and other erroneous beliefs but, the observer's own reflection.
Yes, there are group dynamics as individuals are used to reflect back and forth to one another but those dynamics are based on similarities in the karma of the individual members of said group. Not their physical proximity to or personal relationships with one another.
Not all observers succumb to disaster.
