That seems like gullibility and self-deception, SI.

When things are done that bring pain and suffering to a people, everyone shares that pain and suffering. Whatever is done to one ripples through the thought stream in the form of fear, depression, and heaviness. That is the karma I believe in, and it's observable not a fantasy theory.
Belief has always been a barrier to insight.

Q:What about people who don’t believe in karma? A:Karma is a fundamental mechanism of our existence. It applies to everyone, regardless of belief. Anyone can understand the reasonableness of karma, and all great spiritual authorities have taught the principle of karma: that there are reactions to our actions. In the Bible, for example, we find the statement of Jesus Christ: “As you sow, so shall you reap.”http://www.krishna.com/law-karma

mmmm not really, not a personal god...i think we have created god not vice versa. even if there were a god somewhere it would not do to believe in him just because. this existence is profound and unbelievable enough, godly enough, without needing to invent gods. god is a psychological projection, a really big self. but this universe is divine. one has to simply open hisv eyes and your jaw drops.
do you believe in santa?

You know to be honest with you, I feel like the more we exchange posts the more it feels like a circular discussion leading to 0.
I have been irritable lately and today, so maybe that's it.

I am not sure if it really is that SI. It may b something within.... It tells u you've gotten off track. It is nothing personal just something to be aware of. The mind has many many circuitous pathways. Sometimes we find ourselves exercising mental gymnastics in a crossroad puzzle that amounts to a labyrinth of frustration. At a certain point that recognition dawns on us and we r irritable that we have wasted the time. In r practice there is a way to get out of the mind rather then led into it. When we recognize this we also recognize how many people in the world 🌎 live in their own heads. Yes most of us do it including myself... but some people r so involved in it that it can give u a head ache. When u experience that mental vibration coming from others at times u have to exercise detachment...free yourself of this heavy burden that ties us in knots of a mental quagmire.

And yes I strive to be detached, in fact it comes naturally, but you know, I always fall for it now and then.
