Karma management

A good friend gave me “The Diamond Cutter: The Buddha on Managing Your Business and Your Life”. It is one of the few books that combines mindfulness, spirituality and business together. “The Diamond Cutter” is a written record of a teaching given by the Buddha over 2,500 years ago. It is also the oldest dated book in the world that was printed, rather than being written out by hand. It is a book about karma, imprints and mental gardening. Every thought is a seed to your future. You become what you think. In that way, it is very similar to “Free your mind of being yourself”, but in a lot more active way. Active karma management is the best way to describe the book. It is all coming from the things you did or thought before.

Business

Business transactions, and business decisions, are like an empty screen: whether you see them work or not, whether they are successful or not, is determined not by any outer factors like the business climate or your intelligence or the amount of risk you choose to take, but rather solely by the perceptions of the transaction or the decision forced upon you by the imprints in your mind. You can control and manage those imprints.
