What does "The Road to Hell is Paved with Good Intentions" mean?

Interesting. So how do the negatives here on Earth not have to face their karma for millennia?

Karma is basically a negotiation between otherselves to balance experience/the logos. Creating catalyst for each other is part of the evolutionary requirement. Karma isn't about punishing bad behavior, it's not about morals/ethics, or payback/consequence, it's simply an agreed upon balancing of experiences. Karma is like a type of force.

So everyone faces karma, it just not be what you expect it to be. Ra pointed this out, that determining what the exact karmic effects would be is impossible to determine. It can only be truly evaluated in hindsight in the final merging of all selves (end of the octave).

So karma doesn't equal 'bad', it's just a connection created between another entity to be resolved/balanced, instantly or in time, in the original relationship or through successive experiences with others.

For instance, me writing to you has a function of my polarity (service), it is my intent. If you never read it, well nothing happens karmically, no experience on your side was generated. Once you read it however, a karmic link is established as it now affects your experience. Now there may be an instantaneous dissolution of that karma if the effect on you is minimal, but if I catalyze you in some way (affect your evolution), we can get karmically entangled, and we may not be aware. While that doesn't mean we owe each other anything and may have no further engagement in this life or others, it may mean that we need further lessons elsewhere to understand how we created that entanglement in the first place, to understand our function in the creation itself. So if I wrote something that triggered you in a less than optimal way, I may need further lessons from interactions with others to optimize that aspect of myself (my karma). Conversely you may need further experience to balance yourself to optimize your learning (your karma). Trying to balance those karmic systems with further experience will generate other karmic systems, keeping that wheel turning until that evolution is resolved.
