In Buddhist philosophy it is said that individuals and their worlds are the product of karma. How do we make sense of this claim? This talk will be a philosophical exploration of the notion of karma, with special emphasis on the ways in which the Buddhist theory of karma highlights a realization of the deep interdependence of self and world. The talk is free and open to the public. It is being sponsored by the IC Philosophy Club.
