So now you believe in Karma Bounce also?
Just feel sad for all these buggers who are so ignorant of Karma Bounce.

karma is often given as a reason, or a consequence of one’s actions. It is all too often that I hear people say “you shouldn’t do this because karma will come back to you.” This is a fallacy which I hope to clarify for you all now. Karma does not exist.
I’m sure everybody on this board has heard at least one time in their lives “the world isn’t fair.” That isn’t really disputab...le I think everybody realizes by now that we live in an unfair world. Since that’s the way it is all we can do is adjust. If we are willing to recognize that this life and world is ‘unfair’ then why do we waste time with pipe dreams like karma? Sometimes in this life people get what is coming to them, many times they do not.
Now I am going to take a small digression here and talk about the afterlife. Many people will tell you that they get what is coming to them in the next life. Heaven or hell, salvation or recarnation , it’s all a dream. Why is it a dream? Because nobody, yes that includes you, has any idea of what happens after we die. Of course, everybody has some kind of belief, but beliefs are a far cry from reality. When it comes down to it, think about what you actually know in life. That is, what you can prove. Nobody here can prove to me what happens when you die. Period. Nobody here can prove to me that God exists, or doesn’t exist. Nobody can prove that there is even an afterlife at all. Perhaps this is all we get, and why not? It’s just as plausible to say that this life is all we have as to say that there is an afterlife. Now I don’t really see how this is debatable, the only arguments you can throw at me are a few old books and perhaps some unexplained phenomena. But there is no concrete proof that in the afterlife, karma is served.
Are we really to assume that karma is an ever-present form of justice when it is all too often passed over, or perhaps when it works in some cases but not in others (heh, like our justice system). Now let me argue a small bit of semantics. It is possible to reason that karma is not really an essence, but rather the name given to ‘justice’ when it is truly served. I’m fine with that, but I’d never use it that way personally. I mean, if that were the case, then why make up a word for it at all? Why not just continue calling it justice?
Perhaps some people just have a hard time accepting the fact that people who really hurt them, may never get what they deserve. I know I struggled with that for awhile, but then I realized nothing happens in this life unless you make it happen. If you wait around for karma to save your life or honor, you will wait until you rot. Just like there are dreamers and there are do-ers. What we get out of this life is up to us. Karma is just a dream. A handle for people who haven’t got any handles at all. In that sense it may not be a terrible thing, but those are only temporary handles on life. You can live with illusions your whole life . Karma ? Lan jiao lah ... Please dont said you believe in karma to show ppl you will do good ... All politican are the same .. Wayang to make ppl trust them ... Kraaaaapui .
