It can be daunting to tackle the fundamentals of karma, especially since there are some ongoing discussions of inconsistencies and controversies, so this book represents a refreshing change. Not only does it acknowledge and confront the issues by examining the difference between universal consequence and environmental consequence but it presents the information in the really approachable form of a conversation between a guru and his young student. The inquisitive and sometimes demanding student is keen both to question and to learn, and the guru calmly instructs him. We in turn learn about karmic debt incurred as the result of personal action, and about the path whereby karmic attachment can be decreased. It’s a comprehensive “discussion” and because it’s scripted as a conversation it’s easy to learn and feel well instructed in all its fundamental principles.
