Story and Illustrations by Lori Etsell, Kristen Lineker, Lena St.Hilaire & Sarah Woren
Have you ever done something and thought will this be good or bad for my Karma? Usually, it is only when something goes wrong that one thinks about karmic consequences. Have you ever stopped to ask yourself what is Karma and where does it come from?
Well, by definition Karma is the effects of all deeds that actively create past, present and future experiences, thus making one responsible for one’s own life and the pain and joy it brings to him/her and others. Ironically, the results of these deeds or “fruits” of action are called Karma-Phala and thus is a good introduction to our feature article “SOUL FOOD”
We have defined Soul Food in a collection of recipes for good and bad deeds and how the performance of these deeds result in either good or bad Karma.
Our collection of good and not so good karmic recipes is our unique take on collections, and shows that collecting doesn’t always have to be about the tangible. So, whether you want to whip up lifelong fulfillment or a destiny for disaster, this collection of recipes for karmic bliss and sinsational treats will surely get your taste buds going.
