“So, things like karma don’t really exist?”
“No… They do,
but not in the tangible sense of the word in which you seem so stuck in
thinking. To use your example, karma exists in that it is an idea in your head
or mind.”
“Are they not the
same thing?”
“I’ll explain
that later. Anyway, this type of existence doesn’t necessarily have to manifest
itself in your material world, though it does. You have a word for it, and the
concept of it does affect the behavior of some people, so its existence is hard
to truly deny. How can something have an effect without existing? It exists in
the collective conscious, which acts as a plane of reality all on its own. The
act of being happens in layers, and this collective conscious happens to be one
of the layers”
“But is it my
layer? The one humans live in?”
“Ok, maybe that
wasn’t the correct phrase to use. Yes, it is its own plane, but each plane of
reality has, for lack of a better term, fingers or tendrils reaching out into
other planes.”
“So, do I exist
on different planes, or does everything get included into these tendrils?”
“You’re here,
aren’t you? Your connection to one plane just snipped, causing your
consciousness to snap back toward other tendrils it had. It’s difficult to explain exactly how this happens
because I can only use words you know, and therefor I’m limited to using
concepts familiar to you in order to explain a completely foreign concept.”
