Thank you andyrobyn

that makes perfect sense to me and is observable in my own life, especially when simplified by the phrase used in the article that you mentioned "If you do what you always did, you’ll get what you always got."

Karma as instruction means to observe our actions and appreciate how consequential each action is in reinforcing or dismantling an habituated pattern.

I think I understood Karma better before I read the book haha thanks for getting me back on track
