Cass,
My perspective of karma is not usual. I perceive karma as
guiding laws. Karma experiences an Involution process.
Linear karma would be not be identical to non-linear karma.
An example is the karmic law of merit and demerit. It is a linear
law of the physical or linear. This karma is not experienced by
self unless incarnated in the physical.
Other karma laws are existent on other levels of existence.
ARE YOU SUGGESTING THAT OUR ASTRAL AND MENTAL BODIES GENERATE KARMA OR ARE SUBJECT TO THE LAW OF KARMA?
Cass ) Karma needs appropriate instruments (conditions) for its action.
Zakk ) The action of karma is not karma itself. An important point.
KARMA IS A SPIRITUAL LAW ENFORCED BY SPRITUAL ENTITIES WHO ENSURE THAT THE LAW IS BROUGHT BACK INTO EQUILIBRIUM. NARADA IS THE SPIRITUAL FORCE THAT BRINGS BACK OUR PLANET INTO EQUILIBRIUM WHETHER THAT BE BY DESTRUCTION OR CONSTRUCTION.

Cass ) Without the appropriate conditions it remains unexpended.
Karma requires the exact correction and relation of the
Karma with the body, mind, intellectual and psychical nature
acquired for use by the Ego in any life. In any life our body
may be appropriate for karma to operate, or inappropriate,
so that karma is expended until the time/condition is ripe.<
Zakk ) This speaks about linear / physical karma. Other forms
of karma exist. Guiding laws abide on all planes. Karma exists
on all planes.
Cass ) This is Narada's work, a protection of mankind and
also an avenger. He works by overshadowing men of the
proper psychological, spiritual, intellectual and even physical
temperament and works through them. His duty is to see that
the world is protected, that Karmic Law, destiny, be carried
out irrespective of the consequences, for it is
the only way to reestablish law, order, equilibrium, justice,
ultimate wisdom and peace.
Zakk ) Could you define Narada? I do not recall the term.
It sounds like an entity of some sort.
This is taken from The Key To Theosophy
ENQUIRER. But what is Karma?
THEOSOPHIST. As I have said, we consider it as the
Ultimate Law of the Universe, the source, origin and fount
of all other laws which exist throughout Nature. Karma is the
unerring law which adjusts effect to cause, on the physical,
mental and spiritual planes of being. As no cause remains without
its due effect from greatest to least, from a cosmic disturbance
down to the movement of your hand, and as like produces like,
Karma is that unseen and unknown law which adjusts wisely,
intelligently and equitably each effect to its cause, tracing the latter
back to its producer. Though itself unknowable, its action
is perceivable.
ENQUIRER. Then it is the "Absolute," the "Unknowable" again,
and is not of much value as an explanation of the problems of life?
THEOSOPHIST. On the contrary. For, though we do not know
what Karma is per se, and in its essence, we do know how it
works, and we can define and describe its mode of action with
accuracy. We only do not know its ultimate Cause, just as
modern philosophy universally admits that the ultimate Cause
of anything is "unknowable."
