[Sadsidioribre]

I consider myself a "secular" Buddhist of sorts. If I was to glimpse any of the supernatural beings or events, I suppose that would change. But not only do I have no knowledge or experience with any of it, but much of it has little to do with the practice.

I mean, reincarnation and Devas and heaven realms might be real. But none of it is going to help me be at peace. To me, it is like going to a medical school and learning how to juggle. Of course, some doctors like juggling and some Buddhists like the supernatural. I don't see any harm in it.

I also agree with Hornet about karma and dependent arising. Cause and effect is fairly obvious in day to day life. If you are a jerk, people withdraw from you. If you are kind, people draw close to you. Even things people do in private eventually leak into public life. Cause and effect.
