This four page undergraduate essay examines the law of karma from an evolutionary perspective. The author notes that in describing how these laws operate in human society and in oneÂ’s own consciousness, humans are transitional beings who can consciously participate in a metamorphosis to a happier, future state of existence. Essentially, there is an evolutionary thrust contained within Life itself which has relentlessly led all life-forms, including humanity, to change on an evolutionary level and to transcend themselves.
