Hi soundtrack, I do not have much time to discuss right now , you are referring to " mind only " theory and different levels of conciousness? My understanding of this view of karma is that our intentional actions plant seeds in one section of our consciousness and as these ripen they then drive and influence our decisions about future actions. Once a seed fruits it's karma is then extinguished. The continuity of an individual personality after death, or the human body's apparent unconsciousness, is unrippened karma which still exists in a level of subtle conciousness which is drawn back into existance.

Ken Mcleod's articles present a different understanding for Tibetan buddhists.
