suffering

[Guest guest]

The "Butterfly Effect" is the propensity of a system to be sensitive to

initial conditions.Such systems over time become unpredictable,this idea

gave rise to the notion of a butterfly flapping it's wings in one area of

the world,causing a tornado or some such weather event to occur in another

remote area of the world.

 

 Comparing this effect to the domino effect,is slightly misleading.There is

dependence on the initial sensitivity,but whereas a simple linear row of

dominoes would cause one event to initiate another similar one,the butterfly

effect amplifies the condition upon each iteration.

Isn't this just the variable in the law of karma?

 

The Karmic law is understood as a more or less *orderly* progression of

cause and effect, untill the anomally comes along creating it's own chain of

effects.

 

The sense of *always* suffering creates the urge to freedom. It is the

butterfly in our lives.
