Maybe karma is short term
Like if I do something bad now, in 10 days something else negative will happen to me
This is rather than long term where it carries over into the next life which sounds very fear-based to me.
Ex. 'I have SZ because I acted psychotic in a past life, killing many people.'
No.
Also, some reincarnation believers feel that, even short term, you’ll get what comes back to you three times.
So someone made fun of you so you gain three compliments.
This would mean the karma keeps building and building, and our entire lives would be influenced by it.
No.
I believe that, if there’s a creator, they would be about perfect balance, look at our universe. but maybe it’s not even equal karma.
Maybe its forgiving karma, right?
Ex. I have SZ, so the only actions I take which would have been made if I didnt have this illness count for/against me
If you’re bad eventually someone will see you, same as good . It’s not individual things but the sum of your actions that get noticed. Atleast that’s my idea. Bad things do happen to good people too . Definitely not some magical force. Blah blah blah
What if there was only one soul that the deity made, and it was us. Only us.
And we lived as all the people on earth, at the same time, one life at a time, but each person’s lives parallel to ours?
Each person we have been mean to, kind to, evil to and loving to, was, to us as a different person, yet still us.
Everything we experience, is from us, by us and because of us, then reborn again to live the life as another person here on earth.
Ever meet someone, then instantly hate or like them, feel kinship with them without reason?
Maybe we have been both our mom and our dad, brother, sister, stranger,friend, each in a loop of coming back to this earth, to be “one more time” to learn what it’s like to feel love, hate, sorrow, joy?
What if the experience gives us insight on how not to treat each other, because after all, we are one and the same.
Maybe this is how we do learn to all get along, to forgive and be one, and each time we die, we come back until we have the knowledge to be all loving, forgiving, and one with our god, because we are.
Wouldn’t that be a hoot?
Think of the chances you get each time, when a situation presents itself, to have the choice to be nice, or to be mean to someone, then on your next life, you are that person that was the recipient of your good or evil?
That maybe why we can’t see our god, because we after all our god, and this is why we should learn to be nice to each other, because it is us in another time that we are everyone.
Samwich made, I’m going back to sleep.
