karma is a malleable concept
Is karma like suabb & gunnah (idk how to spell, but the muslim good points and bad points) is it like virtue and sin? or is it some indian caste system metric?
you do good, it circles back in mysterious ways.. I think people get hung up on karma somehow being Hindu or Buddhist, while others conflate it with Christian values..
Its kind of a vague argument... to me, karma describes how the Good or Bad you do, circles back to you both directly/obviously and indirectly/mysteriously... people only use the word "karma" because they don't know how else to describe it.. but for all practical purposes, it has to do with semi-immediate personal earthly reward most the time, rather than a sort of altruistic sort of 'good', which may only be intrinsically rewarding.. it generally doesn't contemplate or exemplify those who do good, knowing well they will suffer directly because they did good.. and that's where its lacking..
>You do good things and good things happen to you.
This is simply not always the case.. I generally agree with you, but its a concept that generalizes.. I totally appreciate "the power of karma" but its sometimes irrelevant.. the sad truth is, sometime bad people get away with their bullshit.. if you're going to throw in "well, they probably go to hell" you're now leaving the concept of karma… of course you can argue that you're not [malleable], but the common/practical interpretation of karma relates to personal, earthly exchanges in experience.
>often
you take every scenario into account, micro and macro, and karma is there, but only generally. Sometimes the entire life of a "good" man results in suffering for him and benefit to men who effectively prayed upon him and those evil men's children. But there's always an out, you can argue those men were somehow making some other 'offering' to the karmic system and the good man was weak, idgaf.. its a malleable concept.. yes actions and reactions throughout time.. to me its just glorifying the obvious which isn't bad… but its often not great either…
>hurting someone else often means hurting yourself
great but just.. too many layers.. sometimes hurting someone else hurts yourself, but it was for their own good and the hurting of yourself was the sacrifice that pays dividends to both individuals long term.. sometimes you go outta your way to "do something good" and you end up enabling some shitty behavior and hurting yourself and feeling shitty about it.. does that mean I totally disregard Karma? no, but its lacking.. its no end-all philosophy, but the mere mention of it often has that connotation
Do good things and good things happen to you, incl suffering, which is sometimes good, depends on whether you agree with me or not.. Malleable.. what's Karma's prescription for aligning oneself with what is ultimately good, vs illusory good. Not an end-all concept.. obvious & effectively meaningless without a metric for which good is good and which bad is bad.
Malleable.. escaping from good = good and bad = bad into vaguery.. blaming someone else for the dichotomy that Karma often presents.
Removing the dichotomy from karma:
Yeah, you do something, and something happens to you.. as if by magic.
what's more potent is intent.. you can intend good or bad, you can perceive good as bad and bad as good, you can perceive good or evil as neutral, you can perceive neutral as good or bad.. but how much intention follows your perception.. how much.. how potent.. and why? Karma by itself is just obvious and malleable.. it exists in the shadow of the question "why?"

Yes, thank you.. karma is a malleable concept that can be applied regardless of alignment, but only generally, but at the same time can always be argued to be consistent due to the complexity of every scenario, especially if you force factor assumptions of afterlife or reincarnation to fit the narrative, and is effectively "you do something, it effects what happens" we need to make everyone aware of this shit. Yuge.. oh but shit, pretty much every philosophy already has a basic conveyance of this concept.. We need to alert the retards and nihilists, something means something!!
