padawonMonkey 0 #1 July 18, 2003 I recently had a stent of bad jumps. Those of you at Raeford over forth of July weekend know what I am talking about. The weekend prior I had a cutaway; (my first) I kept putting off buying the boose for my rigger. The next weekend I jumped still not having payed up. Ju-Ju or not...-------------------------------------------------- "But I'm Just doin what I have to do to survive"-MM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not even for people with ADD and need instant gratification. ive always quibled with that particular ascpect. Perhaps not 'instant' however i believe the things you do now certainly affect your karmic balance and therefore your current life path.. the whole benifit or decline may not be realized until the next, but i think you can see the spiral turning inside a single lifespan...____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

Zennie 0 #11 July 19, 2003 Quoteto me zen is = to serenity in the here and now Sort of. To me Zen is seeing things as they are. And like you mention, truly being in the present moment. Acceptance is one way of looking at it. You may or may not want it, and you may or may not like it. But that's the way it is. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zennie 0 #12 July 19, 2003 I believe in karma from a cause & effect perspective. You benefit from, or are harmed by, the environment that you create. Juju... hmmmm.... that's more of a vibe thing. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tonto 1 #14 July 21, 2003 "inside a single lifespan... " Coincidence. Many good things - and bad things - happen in a single lifespan. We tend to notice what we want to - we see things start - but often miss their passing. tIt's the year of the Pig. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
