Indian Philosophy: The Mysterious Ways of Karma

Karma is one of the most widely recognized concepts in philosophy and spirituality, yet it is also one of the most misunderstood. Etymologically, the Sanskrit word karma simply means "action" or "deed." While it is often discussed in the language of ethics or morality, its deeper philosophical meaning is rooted more in the principle of cause and effect.

Let's then get together, to explore the metaphysics and mechanics of karma through the lenses of Indian philosophy, modern psychology, and ancient mystical traditions. Along the way, we'll ask questions such as: Are we truly free to choose our actions? How much of our lives are conditioned by past causes? Can awareness change the momentum of karma, or are we simply living out its consequences?

Whether you're curious about Eastern philosophy, interested in the psychology of habit and identity, or simply enjoy thoughtful conversations, you're warmly welcome. No prior reading or background knowledge is expected :)
