What Goes Around Comes Around (Karma)

If whizz and only(a) would sine qua non to examine mavins self most the content of a forge or contrive by comparison with what others mean with the battle cry or contrive, virtuoso will find confirmation of similarity or change in nitty-gritty in relation to time. Given such(prenominal) thesis, this essay intends to validate that same by exploring my own assumptions and beliefs astir(predicate) a certain concept or enounce by, discovering what I hope about and how those ideas bewilder been formed in me, and exploring outside apparent horizonpoints of the topic using present-day(a) and/or literary figures, politicians, poets, authors, media images, institutions, history books, etc.Exploration of self What I think and encounter about the idiom What Goes Around Comes Around (Around).?As I make use of the new version of softwargon in the Internet, the computer flashes a communicate Paying is a honorable karma. The volume karma enters into my nous that if there cou ld is good karma, there must be bad karma. Before my encounter of the phrase of good karma, the content of the word karma for me was negative that whatever error or mistake atomic number 53 must have done will rightfully come back to haunt one back. The word karma or the phrase what goes virtu in ally comes close to serves as self-evaluation that would result of self-judgment. Sometimes, the self judges very(prenominal) harshly, hence , one could besides imagine the tendency that I whitethorn have done fair(a) to avoid the word karma before it comes to mind that there could some good in it. The experience has therefore brought me into the truthfulness of experiencing the meaning of wrangling into my life that though as one is just a word it carries a message that could turn on or off ones mood in a day. This is non surprising because I believe that man is created overly an emotional globe although he is endowed with a rational mind. What is to interesting with emotion is that is what one feels at the moment and most of the sometimes, what one feels is more powerful than what one thinks.In trying therefore to reflect on the meaning of karma in this paper, I have to admit that words or phrases could change or could have variant meaning at different times. Thus the destiny to have updated dictionaries. Let us apply on how Oxford English lexicon defines the word karma in two flairs. One definition for the word goes this way From the Sanskrit word (meaning operation or answer) used in Hinduism and Buddhism to refer to the principle by which a psyches actions in this world determine the fate that awaits him or her by and by death. In English the word is sometimes used more in general to refer to the processes of destiny, and it has sometimes been chosen as a assumption stool with reference to this idea.1 Its other definition goes this way the sum of a persons actions in this and previous states of existence, viewed as affecting their futur e fate.2 analyze the two definitions by the same dictionary does non make such(prenominal) difference as to the meaning referring to after life consequences.Exploration of other viewpoints about the phrase and how the meaning of the phrase or word karma has changed over time, how the phrase was formed, etc.Let us take what other old viewpoints using the phrase What comes around goes around or word karma and let us take palliate a nonher who has used the phrase in the context of a given statement. there is such phrases as law of Karma under various call and this include the law of compensation the law of balance the law of action and re-action.3 One could easily get some connection with the authors explanation of the term as bringing it judgment, correcting all wrongs, punishing all vices, and rewarding all virtues. The inevitability of cause and effect means and ends, and bug and fruit are simply there. A mans prescript reading of that interpretation by the author would be to look at the cause if something could be done so that the necessary good effect will come out. One this note therefore the word karma from 1894 had had already a positive or negative meaning and as I now realize, it whitethorn be that I was not that attentive of its meaning then. I mean, the term could mean also to be positive and not just negative.Ward explained further the use of the term karma allows equating it with the law as justice, and when viewed in its applications, an action of an individual has with it retribution. If such is the case, there is also causality to agree with authors conclusion that any secret is told, every crime is punished, every virtue rewarded, every wrong redressed, in silence and certainty.4One could see from karma that energy comes by accident, that what one reaps, what he or she has sown. There is therefore a universal rule that giving love brings further love. Sowing brings further reaping. In more concrete application, it may mean money bege ts money.The phrase What goes around Comes Around happened to be the third single from Justin Timberlakes second solo album FutureSex/LoveSounds which was released in 2006.5 People who could relate with the song may interpret the recrudesce going around as where Timberlake mourned how his ex-lover may have wounded him and in coming around as referring how the law of balance came into effect, as Timberlakes ex-lover new boyfriend now treat said ex-lover in handle manner the woman treated Timberlake in the going around package of the song.Synthesis of two partsComparing my personal experience and others viewpoints with the word or phrase puts me now into the questions Do I have a different connotation of the word or phrase with theirs? What, if any? If there is no difference, justify.I feel that the meaning of the word to me changed overtime as how others may have changed it. Phrases or ground or words are just means to communicate meanings .When one encounters how a word or phras e is meant by other the person so encountered, he or she also makes a meaning out of how he or she understood the word or phrase in the outside world. When that new meaning comes into the person, the last mentioned could use the word in a sentence or in expressing thoughts to others. When many people agree about the usage of phrase of terms or word these agreements and confirmations, produce a part of culture. This is when people change with other members of society as to giving birth to the general acceptableness of the word.6It could be said that difference in the meanings of the word karma was not actually meant in 1894.7 It was my mind who created a difference of the meaning because of my lack of movie to the meaning of karma, that there could also be a good karma not just good karma. This therefore brings me another reality that knowledge of one thing or even a simple word and its meaning to every one vary across different people until that person realizes that he or she m ust understand what others really give to that word so that person could actually relate under a bigger world. If the world speaks with one word or one language, perhaps the world could be a more peaceful world. But across cultures are different languages with different words that may have different meanings.ConclusionThere is basis to uphold the thesis that if one would want to examine ones self about the meaning of a word or phrase by comparison with what others mean with the word or phrase, one will find confirmation of similarity or change in meaning in relation to time.Confirmation of similarity or change in meaning requires one to be honest about the true meaning of the word to himself or herself. After accepting the truth, one must be ready to what is meant by the word or phrase as authoritative by majority of people. The best proof of this is the use of dictionary, which implies that the word may have its meaning reached the point of general acceptability8. This may not be hard to understand as human beings communicate using words or terms, and by them, the peoples experience of the word or phrase will be given recognition and acceptance. I believe that words are defined and used in dictionaries, which may have evolved and changed over time including the chance of expanding the original meaning and even lastly returning to the old meaning.Works CitedDavid Kaufer, Suguru Ishizaki, Brian Butler, Jeff Collins, The Power of actors line Unveiling the Speaker and Writers mystical Craft Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2004Mark Guarino, M.
