Q. I've been researching karma all night. It's interesting, but some people believe, some people don't. My question is , what karma have YOU had or what karma have YOU personally seen?
Answer
Karma = "imprint". Everything we do, say, think and feel sets one or another type of imprint within us. In turn, it is those imprints (karmas) that we have set inside ourselves that draw to us the people and situations of our life. Here is a story about karma:
In 1964, folk music was very popular. Everyone was singing the songs, often with other people so we could harmonize together. And you just HAD to have at least one guitar to do this.
I had no guitar. But my older sister had a cheap guitar that had a tinny sound and the metal strings left deep painful grooves in your fingertips after chording for a while. But ... it was a guitar!!!!! I borrowed it as much as I could (sis was living at home while she went to university).
Christmas came, and my sister had no money for gifts. Christmas morning she came out of her room with her guitar in her hand, a bow on it, and gives it to me. She had tears in her eyes, partly because I was so overjoyed and she was moved ... but also because she too loved her guitar and she couldn't afford to replace it. Her gift was a great act of unselfish caring and generosity.
Five months later, sis was walking down the sidewalk. She was walking by some guy packing up his MG sports car, when he called out to her. He said he had graduated and was moving across-country, 3000 miles away, and was only taking what would fit into his car ... he couldn't fit his guitar into his car ... would she like it? He was giving it away.
Of COURSE she accepted, and when she got home and opened up the guitar case, she saw that he had given her a Martin Classical guitar. With sweet, dulcet tones and soft nylon strings that never hurt your fingers, this guitar would cost over $4,000 in today's market.
Now ... about 8 years later I too had an occasion to perform an act of great generosity, taking a strong attachment to something I owned, and turning it into the joy of giving it away. Two weeks later, I got a gift of the same type of item, but of far greater value than what I had parted with.
Once is coincidence. Twice is ... karma.
