Great idea! That's sort of what I had in mind with my earlier comments, but
you've summed it up and extended the idea in a wonderfully succinct manner.
Thanks.

Karma (as you probably know) is a concept invented by Hindus and popularized
almost everywhere ("Instant Karma's gonna get ya" --The Beatles). It essentially
means, "What goes around comes around" and it contains just enough truth to make
it compelling as a supernatural facet of life.
