BUT I ALSO BELIEVE THAT KARMA PLAYS A GREATER PART THAN THAT IS ATTRIBUTED TO IT BY SOME OF MY MORE DETERMINISTIC MINDED FELLOW EX CHRISTIAN WESTERNERS. I ALSO DIFFER FROM SOME OF THEM WHO, UNLIKE ME, DISBELIEVE IN THE EXISTENCE OF ANY ULTIMATE SPIRITUAL REALITY BEYOND THE MATERIAL ASPECT OF HUMAN NATURE WITH WHICH WE ARE ACQUAINTED IN OUR EXPERIENCE. I HAVE HAD DIRECT EXPERIENCE OF KARMA IN MY OWN LIFE AND IN THE LIVES OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO I KNOW AT FIRST OR SECOND HAND. I CAN ALSO SEE THAT KARMA HAS OPERATED IN THE HISTORIES OF HUMAN COMMUNITIES AND INSTITUTIONS. THESE ARE NET WORKS OF RELATIONS BETWEEN MORTAL HUMAN BEINGS WHO REPLACE THEIR PREDECESSORS AND ARE REPLACED IN THEIR TURN BY SUCCESSORS. SO THAT A RELATION-NET WORK CAN AND OFTEN DOES LAST FOR A FAR LONGER TIME THAN THE DURATION OF A SINGLE HUMAN LIFETIME. THUS THE EVIDENCE FOR THE OPERATION OF KARMA IN THE HISTORIES OF COMMUNITIES AND INSTITUTIONS DOES NOT REQUIRE THE HYPOTHESIS THAT A PERSONALITY RETAINS A CONTINUOUS IDENTITY THROUGH A SERIES OF BIRTHS AND DEATHS. THE CONTINUITY IS MAINTAINED BY THE RELATIONSNET WORK, AND BY PERSONALITIES OF THE HUMAN BEINGS WHO ARE TEMPORARILY RELATED THROUGH THIS NET WORK.” - ARNOLD TONBIE THANK YOU CHARACTER CREDIBILITY IDEAL ROBUST INSPIRING HOPELESS DANGEROUS BEHAVIOUR ORGANISATIONAL BEHAVIOUR UNDERSTANDING PREDICTING OB INSTRUMENTS PERCEPTION BASIS OF HUMAN BEHAVIOUR CULTURE VALUES & ATTITUDES TRANSACTIONAL ANALYSIS MODIFYING COMMUNICATION MOTIVATION LEADERSHIP STRESS MANAGEMENT DECISION MAKING HF DM GP DM CREATIVITY EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE GP DYNAMICS CONFLICT MGT TEAM BUILDING MGT BY HUMAN VALUES WISDOM INTUITION RAJA RISHI MODEL IN OPERATION PROCESS ROLE LOVE DISCIPLINE TEAM MEMBERS OR FOLLOWERS EGO POWER WISDOM LEADERSHIP LOVE DISCIPLINE IMPERSONAL LOVE SELF CONTROL HIGHER SELF RENUNCIATION SATTWA GUNA CHARISMA
