Riassunto:

This compendium of essays deals with the complex theme of Karma, the cosmic law of ethical causation and moral retribution. "The Wheel of Change" presents Gautama Buddha's teaching in the poetic rendition of Sir Edwin Arnold. H.P. Blavatsky's writings on "What is Karma?", "Karma-Nemesis" and "Karma and the Eye" intimate the metaphysical basis, the practical application, and the psychological import of karma and reincarnation.

In "Aphorisms on Karma", W.Q. Judge provides a coherent set of principles of karmic action, the implications of which are indicated in "Karmic Energy". Robert Crosbie's "Recognition of Law" suggests how the effects of karma may be discerned in a constructive manner. "Karma and Freedom" (from Light on the Path) illuminates the cumulative impact of karma over lifetimes, and the possibility of effective transcendence. "Karma and Repentance" teaches that karmic tendencies can be radically altered through penitential sacrifice and therapeutic meditation. H.P. Blavatsky's "Karmic Visions" shows how the enormous burden of karma can precipitate in successive lives and in historical epochs. "The Momentum of Works" by Shankaracharya testifies to the glorious prospect of emancipation from all bondage.
