Here is a simple example of action and consequence - karma, the very scary word that we humans are so afraid of or do not understand at all.
This branch, and the whole apple tree, will soon die, rot and die. An unconscious gardener will say: 'The tree must be old, we need to remove it. There is no use for it anymore.” Another will say: “It's the damn termites, or climate change, or maybe beavers....” The third will say: “It's God's punishment, or this is the fate of this tree, there's nothing you can do.” Whatever people come up with, in most cases, someone is to blame - everyone is to blame, but not him or her. Why look for the cause in oneself if one can shift all responsibility to the world, to fate, to God, to other people? 1 reply

Only a conscious caretaker will say: “Someone cut this tree incorrectly, left a stump, which eventually began to rot, infected the entire trunk and doomed it to premature death.” We made an action that produced a consequence. Perhaps the caretaker wanted to do the right thing by removing a dry or obstructing branch, but it turned out that he did not finish his job and led the tree to a premature death, not allowing it to live fully. It's the same in people's lives - most people don't completely remove everything that harms them, disturbs them, or displeases them. For example, we know or have heard about the food that kills us all, that puts our consciousness and perception to sleep, but we still don't completely give it up. As a result, just like a cut stump on a tree, such food will slowly oppress, decompose, and kill the body. 1 reply
