Watching the Karmic Dance

The Rev · 07-03-2008, 06:29 PM

First off, a quick definition for Karma, to avoid confusion. Karma is the part of life that is reactive (as opposed to intentional). This can range from experiences totally outside our control, like rain, to stuff that we see as being a part of us, such as emotional reactions.

Well, the other day I was in a meeting at work, and instead of listening to what everyone was talking about, I just tried to watch the interplay of reactivity between people. How this one reacted to that one, and the other reacted to the reaction, and so on, like watching emotional dominoes falling in a complex web. I felt, by ignoring the content, and looking at the reactions, I saw people's karma much more clearly. It was an uncanny experience.
