@Sup awee come on. It's fun. What do you do for fun?

@vkoami victim blaming is very sad. What do these people have to do to prevent being tortured by the universe? Follow specific guidelines and not question their hardwired beliefs. I bet greedy rich rulers at the top have loved their people preoccupied with fear based beliefs all through history and all over the world.

@vkoami a baby, who understands nothing, is raped and in your opinion is they deserve it because they did something in another life that god didn't approve of? or someones child has a horrible disorder that makes their skin fall off or their bones brittle and break hundreds of times, they also deserve it? Karma is such a terrible case of victim blaming. Can you prove they deserve it or does an ancient book just say they do? Why do all versions of god torture people for not getting it right?

@leelah I guess mindfulness is meditation. Forgive me. I saw a documentary about this poor sweet Indian boy with horribly disfigured hands. They wouldn't let him go to school, said he must have done something to deserve it, and even his own uncle said it must be evil. That poor boy had a genetic disorder and was horribly persecuted for it. Did he deserve this? Was it karma?

@vkoami I can believe this. Some people are narcissistic. Meditation is very powerful. It is becoming a regular thing in the USA. Everyone needs mindfulness and meditation in my opinion.

@vkoami will you also learn more about others too? Like native american and Aztec beliefs? Most people that are indoctrinated in their beliefs can't imagine anything other.

@vkoami I've always believed there were people that knew common knowledge facts we have now in the past. Math is so amazing. I'm sure some Indian geniuses in the past tracked the sun, moon, and planets and realized the earth was round. Math is beautiful and almost unquestionable. But what about karma? Is there evidence for this?

@vkoami would you explain this quote for me?

@DAD_ that is a beautiful belief. I also believe the Indian culture a wonderful. Is it evidence based science though? Or a comforting belief?

@vkoami the brain is amazing. I read about a guy that has a brain injury and can never forget anything now and a man that forgets everything in 7 seconds but can still play the piano.

@vkoami The radical claim about the Indian boy should be verified with what you would consider a reliable source. Muslims and Christians also make claims about evidence for their religion. That is a very comforting belief, reincarnation, but we better get this life right or we could come back as a tree. I personally believe reincarnation and karma, like heaven and hell, are fear based ways to make people be good when no one is looking.

@vkoami no please, this is very interesting for me. I love a good debate but many people do not want someone questioning their strongly held beliefs. Like reincarnation, is there any credible evidence for it or is it just something we read in an old book? It is an amazing idea buuut is it an actual thing? I guess we don't know until we die.

@DAD_ Every religion deserves respect and also questioning. Are you able to question your beliefs? I love to dig into the psychology of magical beliefs.

@vkoami I wont question your beliefs..... unless you want me to?

@vkoami it is a beautiful book. I love when Krishna encouraged arjuna to kill his family, neighbors and friends because he was actually doing them a favor. But my favorite part is when arjuna asked Krishna to show his true form. It is such an amazing story.

@vkoami I have read the gita. I love that story.

@vkoami Hinduism has it's own bibles and god. It even has its own blue jesus, Krishna. Reincarnation and karma is magical beliefs. Others could try to say their beliefs are just a way of life.

@DAD_ I love Hinduism. I'll have to check it out.

@Sup how interesting. I will look into it. I love the taxidermy at the science museum. They make those animals look amazing.... that never would have crossed my mind.
