The law of cause and effect is perceptive karma... a dogs head and tail in a fractal chase.
A ‘dog’ will explain fractals from the view of the perceptive doghouse. When we fold the fractal, essentially we all experience the exact same thing.
The appearance of ‘cause and effect’ is created by how close we are to the fractal, as well as the movement of our conscious attention.
Mandelbrots’ fractals, from macro to micro, are mere reflections of our conjuring.
The perception of any-thing described by distance, space, or time can be fit into fractals, and are the mirrors of our creation and consent.
When a hand reaches out to turn on a light switch, it can be said that that hand reaching out is the cause and the light switch turning on is the effect. Yet this is just a convenient distinction, nothing more. It can also be said that when a desire occurs to turn on the light, that is the cause - while the reaching out and the light turning on is the effect.
This is the same for every ‘act’ that occurs within the confines of dualistic thought and perception.
If you step back a few feet from your observation you will see little if any distinctions where they once stood unquestioned. Indeed, an act, a ‘series’ of acts, a slew of ‘events’, and lifetime of ‘moments’ are all one thing… it just depends on your willingness to step outside the dualistic paradigm.
