The Drowning Pool
I pulled this out of my Relax Deck this morning:
Goodness and Karma
Imagine that all your actions and comments are like drops of water falling into a pond. The ripples they make represent the signals that you send out to the people around you; as the waves hit the bank they turn and come back toward you. In this way, by sending out goodness, we can expect goodness to come back to us; this is the law of karma.
That's all well and good, but I still feel the urge to hold a few people below the surface of that rippling pond for about ten minutes.
I don't suppose that would be good karma.
But it might qualify for baptism ... and that's a good thing, right?
