Family › The 12 Laws Of Karma by bukatyne(op): 9:00am On Oct 16, 2021

Good morning peeps cool

I saw something on IG that made me do a little bit of research and hence we are here:

What exactly is karma?
The true definition of karma can vary depending on who you ask. Some people adhere to the traditional meaning grounded in Eastern religions, while others interpret it from more of a Western view of good and bad. As a result, this can lead to different views on how karma applies to life.

For example, the Georgetown University Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs says karma is the Hindu view of causality in which good thoughts, deeds, and words, may lead to beneficial effects, while bad thoughts, deeds, and words, may lead to harmful effects.

Some others see Karma in relation to actions and not results:

According to Dr. Jennifer Rhodes, a licensed psychologist, karma is simply those situations or interactions that help us navigate our path toward our higher purpose. “We are often easily distracted and miss messages which make us believe we have a lot of ‘bad’ karma. But those situations are simply signs for us to course-correct and move forward toward our higher purpose,” Rhodes explains. “The journey is not about being perfect, it’s about undoing what is not us and becoming who we really are,” she adds.

Tejal Patel, a meditation and mindfulness expert, says “Karma is a philosophy of how to live our lives so we can truly become the best version of ourselves and live the most fulfilling life we desire,” she says. And since the future isn’t set in stone, Patel says we can change the path of our life by the choices, thoughts, and deeds we choose right now.

What are the 12 Laws of Karma?

1. The great law or the law of cause and effect: According to this law, whatever thoughts or energy you put out, you get back — good or bad. In order to get what you want, you have to embody and be worthy of those things. It’s the concept of what you reap, you sow. For example, if you want love in your life, be loving to yourself. (On point)

2. The law of creation: The law of creation underscores the importance that life doesn’t just happen to us. To make things happen in your life, you need to take action, instead of waiting for something to magically come your way. Also consider how you can use your skills, talents, and strengths to create something that not only benefits you but others, too. "You are the co-creator of making what you want, based on your intentions,” Patel says. (100%)

3. The law of humility: According to Paul Harrison, creator of The Daily Meditation, the law of humility is based on the principle that you must be humble enough to accept that your current reality is the result of your past actions. For example, if you’re blaming your colleagues for your poor performance at work, Harrison says you must accept that you created this reality by not performing as well as you could have. (Set awon: 'They failed me' )

4. The law of growth: Growth starts within us. To positively shape the world, you need to start with yourself. That’s because real change or personal growth begins with what you have control over, which is yourself, not others. The law of growth also looks at the things you can’t control and how you deal with accepting this fate. Ultimately, your focus should be on you, not trying to control the people or things around you. (Part of maturity is knowing you can only control your actions and reactions to the actions of others. No more, no less)

5. The law of responsibility: Alex Tran, a yoga instructor based in Seattle, Washington, says the law of responsibility is her favorite law to teach in class. “It’s a reminder that you own what happens to you in life. It’s a great reminder that what happens to you is because of you. This eliminates the opportunity for you to look outward to find the cause of your problems,” Tran explains. She likes to use this to describe the karma law of responsibility: “You are the product of the choices you make.” (This is a constant)

6. The law of connection: This law is based on the principle that everything in your life, including your past, present, and future, are connected. “Who you are today is the result of your previous actions,” Harrisons says. And who you will be tomorrow will be the result of your actions today. (Where are the 'don't judge me by my past geng'?)

7. The law of focus: Focusing on too many things at once can slow you down and lead to frustration and negativity. That’s why the law of focus encourages you to concentrate on one thing at a time. “If you focus on higher values like love and peace, then you’re less likely to be distracted by heavy feelings of resentment, greed, or anger,” Patel says. (Multitasking gurus, where art thou?)

8. The law of giving and hospitality: You must give to the things you believe in. This law helps you understand the importance of your actions, reflecting your deeper beliefs. For example, if you want to live in a peaceful world, you need to focus on cultivating peace for others, Harrison explains. (Where your treasure is, your heart would be).

9. The law of here and now: To experience peace of mind, you have to embrace the present. This can only happen when you let go of negative thoughts or behaviors from your past. If you get too focused on past events, you’ll keep reliving them. One exercise Patel recommends to get in touch with the here and now is to get rooted into your senses. “Look around the room you are in, focus your eyes on something, blink, and say ‘I am here,’” she says. (Very key/ To live a full life, you need to be present each step of the way)

10. The law of change: According to this principle, history will continue to repeat itself until you learn from the experience and take steps to do something differently to stop the cycle. Change gives you a new path so that you can create a new future and a better version of yourself, free from the patterns of the past. (Surely not the APC type)

11. The law of patience and reward: To generate change in the future, Harrison says we must be consistent in our karmic deeds today. “It’s no good living healthily for one day and then sabotaging it in the next,” he says. Be consistent in your goals, and they will come to fruition. (Awon healthy eating for a day, cheating six days of the week peeps. On a serious note, Naija can discourage someone who is not grounded)

12. The law of significance and inspiration: We all play a part and have something to contribute to this world. What we share may sometimes seem small to us but can make an enormous difference in someone else’s life. Patel says the law of significance and inspiration is a great law to focus on when you need a motivational boost or begin to feel like you don’t have a purpose or matter. According to this law, every contribution you make will affect the world. You have been born with a specific gift, mission, and purpose that only you can bring into the world with your uniqueness. Authentically sharing your skills and gifts is why you’re here. (100% co-sign. Find YOUR purpose and deliver on it. This is very key as a Christian which emphasizes more on roles than positions)

In Summary:
The 12 laws of karma can serve as a guideline or road map to follow as you go through your daily life. These laws can help you understand how karma really works, and the effect that your thoughts and actions can have on you and the world around you.

Using karma as a set of guidelines in your life can incentivize you to be more mindful of your thoughts, actions, and deeds before you make a decision.

Octopusssy:
Nne gettaut. You are into BDSM so stop shoving you perverted logic on us. I was caned on my buttocks for 6 years in secondary school and my only memory of those moments is pain. Your body and mind is too busy trying to cope with the pain to even admit in any other kind of sensation, especially sexual arousal.

You are a generation of sexual perverts and you badly need Jesus to sanctify your hearts and renew your spirit man.

Have you wondered by some people cannot 'enjoy' sex without introduction of pain, shame and other deprived things?

The OP might be on to something.

Let's assume she is into BDSM, looking into the OP can help bring up kids NOT interested in BDSM.

Acidosis:
I agree but why exempt men?

I judge PEOPLE by their past. It is a f00lish idea to say "don't judge people by their past". When you need the service of a freelance graphics designer, what's the first thing you ask? Sample or portfolio of past work. Isn't?

Judging by one's past doesn't imply absolute negativity. Unless you're assistant SATAN, you should have some level of positivity in your past that is worth judging/evaluating asides from your negative deeds. And by the way, no on is perfect.

When you hear don't judge me by my past, be sure that the past is scandalous grin

Hahahahahaha @ why exempt men? Maybe the man doesn't want to be judged cheesy

Or because 'don't judge me by my past' is often a woman's narrative undecided

.

And men care about the sexual past (since that is the focus of the writer) of women they want to marry than the other way round.

I however believe a serious minded woman would judge her intended by his past to ensure she can accommodate it.

Samishiba:
A lot of men have many women, have a sex with a lot of women. And anyone judge the men. Men can have many women, have sex with many women. If a woman does the same, she is judged. The society is machist and hypocrite

The men also use drugs to prevent pregnancy or do abortions and all sorts.

The men are also carried by one cultist to the other or usually invited to threesomes and all sorts.

Or the man can decide to responsible for his actions and birth (the key word: birth) several kids for different mother's.

The sexual past of men & women have consequences and future implications on them.

However, one is graver than the other.

1. Insulting a person because he/she has a contrary opinion is childish and immature...WORK ON YOURSELF!!

2. See....as long as the consequences of your past persists, people will judge!!!!! It does not matter whether the person is a male or a female and besides look at the context which this guy is writing from and use your "fast reasoning" to decipher it.... When you're done, proofread your comment and see if it makes sense...

3. Yes you're right...baggage is what is present not what is in the past...
But picture this...

A girl who has done drugs, slept with many men, done several abortions is a very BIG BARGGAGEEEE!!!! Do your research, for every time abortion is carried out ((especially by a quack doctor)), there is a 3 - 5% chance of a womb damage and miscarriage occurring in future, now if a girl has done 5 abortions, do the maths.... So an innocent man married to this one will be spending heaven and Earth, just to keep a child in a damaged womb...guy reason am na...

Studies have shown that having multiple sexual partners in the past increases your chances of a divorce ((do your research))

And also the drugs that females use to prevent pregnancy have side effects, ranging from disruption in the ovulation/menstrual cycle ((which if not PROPERLY MANAGED could lead to infertility)) to liver and heart disease ((also a serious matter if not properly managed))...so when a man now marries this one, will he not join in the suffering

Men and Ladies...
Pleeeease...
Live your life with the future in mind, so that you don't turn minister for "don't judge me by my past" in future...

I really hide my face in shame for the mere fact that I'm sharing the same air with this person.

Face. Palm.

Yusuf Tarfa @YTaf iya_Jnr:

"I slapped my wife and she had the guts to arrest me with police, because of one correctional slap? I was so surprised when the police stormed my office to arrest me, We have lost wife materials, it's funny how this Woke generation can't endure like our mother's."

"She had me arrested and had the nerves to remain in my house, it's the audacity for me? My father slapped my mom and she never had him arrested, instead she apologize like the good wife she is, then cooked and to wash his clothes. But now it's pathetic that we can't correct them."

"... and I have been happily married for 3years, she had me arrested for slapping her, Lol. I'm done with this shitty marriage."

@bold:

I agree with the statement although I disagree with the thought process behind it.

The moment you arrest your husband (justified or not), the marriage is dead.

I am wondering why the wife still went back to the house/marriage.

If she wanted the marriage to continue, she should have employed other ways to reset the guy's brain.

@ his definition of wife material: he can marry his mother. undecided

LilMissFavvy:
Would the author of this write up be happy to share his wife with her male admirers outside? If yes then his write up is fair, if no, then he is madd. Married women have admirers, but a good wife should try and overcome temptations, same as a married man should overcome temptations. Very soon, we will hear news about how a side chick stabbed the foolish author and emptied his bank account, non*sense.

You think polygamy for a man & woman is same? cheesy

Polygamy not adultery (without kids) where either party chops & clean mouth to maintain the 'monogamous' front?

@OP:

Moot article.

There is nothing stopping people who want to practice polygamy in Nigeria today from doing so.

The idea that polygamy stops or curbs adultery is false: Alhajis with ten wives is still sampling small girls at UNILAG.

Married women are still side chicks to married and single men.

The very process of polygamy is adultery but let's not even go there.

How are women marginalized in Nigeria?

Look around you and practical examples.

If I want to address women marginalization in Nigeria today, what are the issues?

There is only one issue I have seen which is still a Northern issue:
> Their cut off marks are ridiculously low for entry into Federal Government Colleges however, the males are lower than the females. Every other region in the country have same cut off mark for boys and girls.

If you cannot give practical, definite examples coded into law, like the above, then you do not have a case.

My sister, if only u knew what the man did o aside having another woman. Maybe the wife's kids were not well to do then. So she waited for a perfect time. Who knows whether the man was even rubbing it on the wife's face then and beating her on top. Its better u dont hurt some people becos the come back is always hell.

I am not against the pay back; I am thinking why the woman would wait that long.

Look at it:

She endures his cheating and shenanigans for about 30 years (let's say she married at 25... she is 55yrs) before jetting out to start enjoying her life at quarter to old age. She might have incurred irreparable injuries and/or scars while waiting to endure without treating the issue in due time.
