Re: Do you believe in Karma? [Re: Asante]

I wish there were such a thing as karma, but unfortunately that's not the way the world works, as anyone with any significant life experience will confirm.

I however do believe in being respectful and nice to others and I try (oh, how I try) to treat other people how I would have them treat me. Not because I believe in Jesus Christ as my savior or because I'm afraid of karma, but because it just MAKES SENSE.

Without reincarnation or some form of afterlife it is very clear that there can be no justice. Some are born in wealth and others in poverty, and some have no chance to change that.

Pending the hard facts about life and death, anyone's firmest belief is but an assumption.

i picked other because i didn't understand the use of the word balance as it relates to karma.

i think karma is defintely real but i would say it acts instantly.
although you do get other life karma, the instant one if the only one you should be worried about. or at least its the one i'm worried about.

I don't believe so much in "karma" as in some overriding force governing people and making sure they get their dues, but more so in projection, if you put good out your more likely to receive good because you put it out.

to me, karma sounds like a guilt system that tries to force people to act nice.

So who says there has to be justice? Justice is arbitrary. Unfortunately, I don't believe the universe is inherently just even though the concept sounds nice.

I think that some kind of awareness is there after we die, but I don't think we personally suffer for the karma that we make in this lifetime. I mean, we are suffering from the karma of our ancestors and they are of the same essence so I think of it as that kind of deal.

i have to say i like the idea. and when i am good good things happen, but also when i am bad good things happen, i answered probably yes because i have yet to be punished by "karma" for my sins.

i fear the day.
