Karma

[Nullific]

I'm trying to think of some hypothetical situations, it gets difficult since usually karma is very complex.

In high school you're a bully. Ten years later you go to a job interview, one of the individuals you picked on happens to be the boss.
That is a more direct example with entities A and B, A affected B negatively...in the future it is up to B whether A is benefited.

I don't agree completely with this page but it does give some examples.

Also, I don't believe the laws of physics change from planet to plant, galaxy to galaxy or even universe to universe. The only change may be in the variables.

kronik, I know that it doesn't have anything to do with what I was explaining.. I was just using it as a way to explain what I meant, which is this: I dont believe in karma (ie, our negative actions coming back later to haunt us, and our positive actions coming back in a good way, in some kind of 'cosmic conspiracy'), but i do believe that all of our actions have an effect on the world around us. now ima go listen to some chili peppers

so those explainations of karma, are just to describe it right? 99% of the time....they kid you picked on, wont end up being your boss....wheres the karma in that? if its possiable for him to be the boss in the future....its just as possiable(and more likely) for him not to be the boss. there's your flaw. if every one dosent get whats comming to them...how can you say with definative proof that it exists? seeing as some people "go through the cracks" id hardly call that fair, in this so called "karma world". so sometimes...."what goes around, dosent come back"!

Think of the events of your life, how might something that has happened to you in the present come from your actions of the past?
All I can give are actions with immediate consequences. Play with fire, you get burned. Put a fork in the toaster, electrocuted. Cut class, get suspended. Find someones wallet and return it, get a reward. Do good work, get a promotion. These are physical actions with consequences, and there are plenty of them occuring in your everyday lives.
I never claimed to have definitive proof, just a possible explaination of things that occur to us throughout our lives. If some physical and mental actions have immediate consequences, then other physical and mental actions must have delayed consequences, even if these consequeces are facilitated by other factors. Think of every single action you make, everyday. There are a lot them, most of them insignificant but even if the probability of that action having a consequence is small they may add up to something eventually.

Goin to smoke another bowl.

What about instant karma anyone had that?
But i do believe in the law of karma because really in life if you do something bad it always comes back to haunt you even if it is years later.

I absolutely agree. I've seen karma in action and it was almost scary, kind of like I had "powers". I know I don't , I'm just saying I told somebody once that they would get what they deserved, and they did, and it was about 30 seconds after I said it.

ok....the term for "what goes around comes around" is karma...but thats all it is....a term...i highly doubt its because of a higher power doing all the work.

True, but that can be said for a lot of things. Who said they had proof? I didn't read a post from anyone who said that they had absolute proof. It can't be proven...sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. In my experience, most of the time it does come back to you, good or bad. I think the idea of the kid you picked on not becoming your boss is broad and general. More like this, you pick on the kid, later on you trip and fall in front of group of other kids and look like an ass. That's more like what I was thinking.

I'd rather just try to put out positive energy (not that I do all of the time ) just because I'd rather not have any bad energy come back to me.

ya but people definatly get away with more stuff, than people that get it "comming to them".
