Recommended Posts

 

the higher one goes the more instantaneously  karma can kick in;  btw with the flood gates for evil overflowing lately here on earth one may wonder when its karma will give it a kick?

 

""God" does not interfere with human events",  except when or for instance....?

met a guy who swore he saw a bunch of little gray aliens close by when as he was outside late one night!  (near a small town  in southern Utah)

 

Btw, there was a report of technical problems taking place at underground U.S. ballistic missile site at the same time of UFO sightings....

 

"Public claims by Robert Salas

In August 13, 1996, the Great Falls Tribune published an article about Robert Salas and his story of a UFO report associated with the Echo Flight malfunction.[6] Robert Salas had been a 26 year old Air Force Lieutenant during the 1967 malfunction.[6]

According to Salas, on the night of the malfunction, he was assigned to the underground capsule at the complex.[6] According to Salas, a security guard on the surface contacted him to report flying objects in the distance doing strange maneuvers; Later, guards reported seeing a glowing red object hovering above the front gate.[6] According to Salas, minutes later the complex's ten Minutemen nuclear missiles went offline.[6] The red object reportedly disappeared and maintenance crews took a full day to restore the system to operational status.[6]

In the August 1996 piece, Salas denies being a "UFO junkie" and doesn't suggest extra-terrestrial involvement; He further says he wants to find answers to the mystery, requesting anyone with information to contact him.[6]"

Bible says those who commit evil will be dealt with shrewdly.

 

In a way that they dont see coming.

It seems that one is still thinking of Karma as an agency for justice. Rather that I believe Karma is a law of human energy. One generates this energy which must find its way thru the universe. Whether it takes one lifetime or many, Karma will find a way to execute the form and factors of that energy. That is still a mystery to me. So, I could definitely be wrong about this.

It is likely that karma applies to any soul-bearing species including those far beyond human levels.

 

The issue seems to be that vast entities pressure uncomfortable internal species to mend their ways.

 

It seems that karma is not about justice but about a peaceful life for the entity that uses this universe as its current incarnation

Karma must not be related to justice.  Otherwise who is to determine an event is justice or not, and what is the yard stick?   The same event can be right and wrong depending on many things and the view can change after time lapses.

agreed. i think karma is less about retribution, and more about growth, the gradual shaping of sentients over time into something better.

Karma imo:

Uncleared crap in your head is the cause; your current life is the effect. Clear the crap -> no Karma.

Unless humans are not the center of Existence/Creation.   In which case there may be great currents of karma generated by other species

Yes! Just to riff on that one: Your story about the world and your "self" is the cause. Stop telling the story - no karma. Complete realization is the end of the story and the teller.

Look around the place where you currently are. Everything is in the process of change, arising and passing moment to moment. There IS no center. Anything that imagines that it is by some miracle separate from anything else generates karma.

Good news for of course in proper context none of that applies to the Self... or to the Buddhist version which follows:

 

"There is, monks, an unborn — unbecome — unmade — unfabricated. If there were not that unborn — unbecome — unmade — unfabricated, there would not be the case that escape from the born — become — made — fabricated would be discerned. But precisely because there is an unborn — unbecome — unmade — unfabricated, escape from the born — become — made — fabricated is discerned."
