So, as a quasi-Buddhist, I sometimes find myself worrying about what kind of energy I am sending out into the universe. They say that everything we send out to others we get back, or get back 10-fold, depending on which belief system we subscribe to. If this is accurate, sending out positive actions leads to blessings while doing negative things in the lives of others leads to curses.
With such a belief, I cannot help but wonder what my balance is between positivity and negativity. I find myself doing positive things for selfish reasons. I help others because I believe it will benefit myself. This is not intentional. Rather, it is the result of being an enlightened egoist. I cannot help but be somewhat selfish.
So I wonder, reader, do you worry about karma? What kind of energy are you sending out into the universe? Do you feel like you do a good job of keeping your actions positive, or do you think you could be a little more “good” in your intentions sometimes?

They always used to say what goes around comes around so I suppose that’s the same thing? Sometimes seems to be true but it’s surprising what some seem to get away with.

I always use the same phrase, “what goes around comes around” and yes I really believe that its true. Its crazy how everything turns out.
I do believe in karma. As for your situation Micheal I think it is far better if you do good things along with the right intentions. Just try it and you would feel how wonderful you are if you’ve helped a particular person.
