Karmic Laws: Reality or Scare Tactic?
My whole life, I've always been very consciously aware of the karmic backlash of my actions and thoughts. Basically, when I entertained the thought of doing something I would consider "bad" or "inconsiderate", I would then remember that if I did, karma would beat my ass about it, and it's not worth it. And of course, I was always under the impression that the more "good" I did, the more the universe would "reward" me with more good things.
However, the older I get, and the more I experience life, I'm starting to realize more and more that life simply does NOT work that way. I now think Karma in itself, as far as within the context of THIS particular incarnation, is a total fraud, and has little to no influence on how my life unfolds. I mainly think this because not only are actions and thoughts subjective as far as how "good" or "bad" they are, but the whole idea of karma working in this way in the first place comes from organized religious trains of thought like Christianity, acting as if some man in the sky is watching my every move and thought and will "judge" them and have some kind of control over my destiny. Such a primitive, laughable thought.
So basically, I've come to a point where I feel like I should quit holding back on being who I truly WANT to be, and just go for it, and truly live a life worthy of the "do what thou wilt" law. I'm not saying I should go out and kill people or something lol, because I don't WANT to do that, but saying that I should do what I DO want to do regardless of what anyone thinks. For example, over the years, I've grown a liking to hardcore dominating sexual situations lol, and in the beginning, I felt "ashamed" for enjoying that, but the more and more I opened myself up to other females in that way, and see how much they surprisingly ENJOYED it more when I "owned" them rather than only doing what she "allows" me to do, it made me look back on all the times in my life where my being "too nice" to a female has RUINED things with that particular female. It's a weird example I know lol, but it's one that I truly feel and one I think that can be applied to most other facets in my life as well.
Overall, I mainly want to hear what others think about karmic laws, and if people truly think stuff like "threefold law" actually is REAL, or if they, like me, have experienced life long enough to see that it doesn't truly apply to life at all. Not to say that the law of attraction isn't real, but I think that's something very different, and based more on our individual PERCEPTION of our actions and thoughts, and is based more on "like attracts like", without actually JUDGING the action and reality.
