For so long I’ve told myself I’m cursed screwed and I don’t deserve anything good. But recently I’ve been thinking about the books I’ve written, the music I’ve made, the poetry and short stories I’ve written. It’s not like I haven’t written them yet. Ive finished writing my masterpiece. And it’s beautiful. But then I think I do deserve it. Because I have such good karma. But my whole life I’ve exchanged bad situations for good karma, never gotten anything in return really that I wasn’t already born with or whatever. But now I realize it is karmic for me to succeed. I’m already a success in my mind. So why am I telling myself I don’t deserve it? I do deserve it, it’s karmic! Do you believe in karma? I’m not talking about past life regression but Karma if you put in something you get something out of it? Thoughts …
I believe you usually get something proportional to what you give.
For example, if you study you’ll pass exams. 
Do you believe in a non-theological force that causes people and things that are inherently bad to eventually have what’s coming to them. While people inherently good, more or less have good things happen to them in the end?. Of course not all set in stone because some people get killed over nonsense, but is there a force of good in the universe?
I just feel the combination of effort, perseverance, and staying alive, and being a good person, eventually I’ll have some good to come out of it
No I don’t believe in it, look at socrates, jesus, ghandi, martin luther king… The exceptions are as common as the rule.
Nope. That idea is insulting in my opinion to people who don’t deserve to get hurt but do anyways. Life is random.
No i think it’s coincidental. I believe life is nonjudgemental. It’s like pleasing the universe for rain. They are no rules to follow. This life is a one-off experience. That is it.
Good point. I believe in karma too. In math, if you find a counter example, you disprove it. But I think Jesus, Socrates, etc. Had the odds stacked against them. Jesus had the Roman Empire and other powerful forces against him because he challenged the status quo. Maybe Jesus was an alien or son of God or time traveller? Basically, Jesus knew they would come after him.
Still if they were doing good only good should have come after them.
Bad things happen to good people.
Bad things happen to bad people.
Good things happen to good people.
Good things happen to bad people.
True. But could it be more complicated than that? Maybe these people are rewarded in the next life? Although I’ve been ( I believe ) in a time loop/causal loop, I believe there are other existences. It is my belief we live in a sim. Personally, I was hurt badly in my past lives but I seem to be able to change my destiny by being a good person, taking my meds, and being quiet.
Maybe Ghandi and Socrates and MLK were special people. But ultimately I believe the government and aliens are in control…and the business elite.
I know people are tired about hearing about my past lives, but I was killed before and ended up meeting aliens in the after life and even helped design/program the universe as a simulator.
If I had to choose between believing in karma and sin I would pick sin because I’m a Christian.
Yes I also believe in future lives as another way of getting karma.
Sure you can believe it, karma needs it because otherwise it makes no sense.
Maybe I’m just lucky it’s not karma Idk. But I like to believe there’s a good force in the universe. It keeps me hopeful.
I have good karma. bad things have happened to me but its all part of the masterplan…I have more real world experience than most people and it positions me to be a viable alternative to some mainstream philosophies.
I dont believe in karma. I am just a good person and i dont deserve hearing voices and that horrible stuff i struggle and i dont think in another life and i will be rewarded.
On the other hand, i have met horrible people with apparently wonderful lives.where is karma there?
You don’t know how great that horrible persons life really is.
I believe in karma for years I’ve done alot to help people out and after 3 or 4 years of doing good things. I tried vlt for first time in my life all I had was 15$ and no food so I tried my 15$ into vlt and from 7:30 pm until 2:30 am I won $3000 it was awesome
karma as i was taught is on such a large scale and measured in all your life times… it’s hard to even truly grasp the concept let alone measure your own karma…
I believe loosely in karma, in that people who do good generally have good things happen to them, and vice versa, but I don’t believe it’s flawless, since sometimes bad things happen to good people, and vice versa.
Maybe God understands and influences the randomness of the universe perfectly enough to make karma perfect, but for people it seems imperfect and random.
Interesting. I don’t think the universe is random or if so not very much from my perspective. It seems the universe favors the rich and the hard working.
