Guest guest Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 Dear Group, I think most people think of karma as being either good or bad. So when people prosper in life they impute it to their good karma..I think a person who is in ignorance earns karma and karma is always bad because it is the result of our ignorance.. So the do gooders of this world who are always trying to do do good deeds to earn good karma often can be quite dangerous to society because what they think is good for the world may actually be quite harmful. On the subject of attachent,I think all humans are driven by it..One is attached to to one's country,one's community,one's language,to one's appearance,the list goes on..And what about desires ? Every thought is a desire.."I need to get moksha" is a desire.. So as long as u are in ignorance they will be with u..So the only way to deal with desire and it 's consequent effects.. sorrow for instance is to realize the self.. No amount of suppressing one's inner urges is going to get one anywhere..One needs to get to the source of the problem which is ofcourse the ego. So the question would be," Should I indulge my urges?". Isn't that what we do most of the time.. So why make a big thing of it.. alec > ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Sir, it seems from here quite obvious who is "making a big thing" of all this.
