Karma: The Fifth Dimension

Dimensions delineate functions of

movement. Three dimensions are

needed to show movement through

space.  Time is the third dimension.

We move through time. Karma is

the fifth dimension. As we move through

various incarnations over time, karma,

the momentum of our actions, determines

what form we will assume in a particular

lifetime of existence. Karma is a 

dimension because it is infinite but can be

divided into measurable units called 

lifetimes. Karma is a quantum dimension

in that, from any point in time, the karmic

possibilities are infinite. The direction karma

takes is based on actions performed.

Actions are the vehicle we ride through the

fifth dimension.

As complexity increases our ability to perceive 

and understand it diminishes. The ability to

predict events decreases as the time factor

increases because it adds complexity. It’s 

impossible to predict karma because we

cannot perceive past one lifetime, one unit 

of karma. If our perception was better, we

could see karma as a dimension. Change is
scalable and in direct proportion to the 
complexity of dimension. In Buddhism, it is
said that enlightened beings have the ability
to perceive the dimension of karma.
