A perspective on the Law of Karma

 

 

This is something I read at http://www.YouBeyondYou.com and I thought

I should share it here. (by the way, the website has been made by

someone who lost his vision)

 

This article sums up what the law of karma is and how it has been

misconstrued.

 

I have been a devotee of osho for quite a while now. This article is

a discourse by osho on the law of karma. Hope you find it interesting.

 

Osho:

The law of karma, in the first place, is not a law. That word gives it

an aroma as if it is something scientific, like the law of

gravitation. It is merely a hope, not a law at all. It has been hoped

for centuries that if

you do good you will attain to good results. It is a human hope in

existence which is absolutely neutral.

 

If you look at nature, there are laws -- the whole of science is

nothing but discovery of those laws -- but science has not come even

close to detecting

anything like the law of karma. Yes, it is certain that any action is

going to bring certain reactions, but the law of karma is hoping for

much more. If

you simply say any action is bound to produce some reactions, it is

possible to have scientific support for it. But man is hoping for

much more. He is

asking that a good action inevitably brings a good consequence with

it, and the same with a bad action.

 

There is more to this article, but you rather read it from there. i

wanna avoid typing the whole thing again. here is my link,
