cosmic law
Order governing existence
Cosmic law refers to fundamental principles believed to govern the universe—forces operating beyond human legislation or social convention.
The term appears in spiritual, philosophical, and New Age contexts to describe concepts like karma, divine order, or the idea that certain moral truths are woven into reality itself: Cosmic law ensures that cruelty returns to the cruel.
In science fiction, cosmic laws may be the physics of fictional universes.
