The state of mind that you are in causes you to act in a certain way. Your actions will bear results. The ultimate result of all karmas and actions is state of mind. You are your state of mind.
Karma is engendered by states of mind. If you are in a happy state of mind, that will engender one kind of karma. If you are in an unhappy state of mind, that will engender another kind of karma.
Karma will lead you to a larger more expansive happier view or a dinger darker view. That view will enable you to make choices and have experiences.
All states of mind have different views. On the higher plateau, opportunities will open to you because you can see them.
When you cause something to happen it causes a shift in your awareness. Shifts in your awareness ultimately will result in a pattern shift in your life.
The karma that is most interesting is the mental karma because ultimately it generates physical action.
I would suggest your awareness is your karma. How you feel generates your level of attention.
Everything that you have done has led up to what you are now. Everything you do now will lead up to what you will be.
You are new at every moment. You are an extension of the previous moment of your awareness. You can radically change, if you unhook yourself from what you have been.
Your karma is the sum total of your awareness field. Your awareness field is comprised of all the experiences that you've had in this life and all other lives.
Karma simply means that whatever type of energy you project, or you allow to pass through your being, you will become for a period of time.
There is a popular conception about karma, and that is that as you sow, so shall you reap. That's only true if you're a farmer.
Karma means changing planes of reality or changing fields of attention. There will be perhaps a resulting physical action stemming from the change of these fields of attention.
Good and bad karma are just ways of evaluating causal experience. What you do affects your attention field.
It is good not to think of karma as an alien force that is outside of yourself. You are the generator of karma. Karma is the energy patterns that emanate from your life.
Karma indicates action, but not necessarily physical action; nor is karma a result in the sense of a reward.
Karma is not a cop-out. The esoteric meaning of karma is that you are who you are, because of what you have done and who you have been.
Karma doesn't mean that everything works out justly.
There are physical karmas. They are reactions and results from actions. But those are bound to a particular lifetime.
What you have done causes things to happen. Your situation in life now has been caused, is predicated upon, your previous actions. That is karma.
The karma of immediate availability is the condition of your awareness field. The karma of potentiality is what is stored inside you from your past lives.
Everything that exists in this or any other world or dimension, does so because of the way that things were in the previous moment. I call this the karma of moment.
Buddhists understand that today and all other days have turned out the way they have because of karma. The interconnection of one moment with another moment, of one action with another action, is karma.
There are different pathways - be it Zen, tantra, karma yoga, or jnana yoga. Different ways have been devised to do the same thing for different types of people according to their temperament.
There comes a time when a race of beings makes a decision. When they chose to reject enlightenment, it's the end of their world because the karma is inevitable. They have to destroy themselves.
