If prayer worked....

@gemswinc if karma worked too… 😑

@MotherDucker @gemswinc Karma works fine. It's just that people think karma means something other than what it does.

@AskTheDevil I would just like to see it, before I die. In fact, possibly seeing it happen strengthens my will to live longer. Other than that, good life, I'm ready @MotherDucker

@gemswinc @MotherDucker Now, the fact that you feel that way, and someone did something that causes you to feel that way - the ripples of attachment and connection that happen when someone causes changes in the world, that's karma.

When all those ripples bounce back to where they started, that is a karmic cycle.

TFG has generated a lot of "bad" karma. But bad karma doesn't go find a person and punish them. It impacts all the people it touches, including the source. That's what makes it karma.

@AskTheDevil Do you have a resource which you can link? Karma is not a personal proposition? Of course someone's evil affects us all, but is that the same as personal Karma?

@gemswinc That's the thing about karma. It isn't ever just personal. It is about attachments and interactions. Your karma is karma when it is between you and something or someone outside you. It is attachment.

It's ony personal in that you started it, and it also impacts you.

I'm not sure what resource I would point to. This is my thoughts based on lots of input from lots of sources and contemplation over a long period of time.

There's people who ascribe some supernatural force to it, like there's some ghost somewhere weighing hearts on scales and dispensing consequences.

But it's not really like that. It's the web of connections among people, and between our inner and outer worlds.

@AskTheDevil So you are the resource. Again, thank you for your input & thoughtfulness
