Re: Life is easier without karma - a dicussion.


The problem that we have with this karma issue is exactly what it means.

I do not and I'm sure many others don't find the classic hindu karmic philosophy applicable. To be living this life so that I get a better next life is NOT my goal in any way.

Then trying to do good all your life so that in my next life I may come as a higher caste or as a maharaja is NOT my goal either. - I strictly do NOT believe this kind of philosophy.

 

I probably have my own karmic philosophy and i'm sure most of you will. 

I believe it more on the lines of reaping what you sow or getting out of creation and universe what you put in!- It is much more than that, but those are the starting points in my view.

 

AS for the question of ***Life being easier without karma***

I don't agree or disagree as I find it not applicable.

Do I really want my life to be that easy ??

We should have all learnt by now, that having a very easy life is also the MOST BORING and probably more harmful for our self confidence and esteem!!

 

-My simple answer to the above of '' is life easier without karma??''

Is Simply, life is too easy to complicate and I feel my life won't get harder or easier with or without karma. Then again, I really don't want it to be that easy anyway.
