We were taught fairy tales about “good deeds” returning as rewards and “bad deeds” coming back as punishment from some old god in the sky. But the truth is far deeper — and colder. Karma is not a judge sitting in heaven waiting to punish you. Karma is the law of balance: a precise and relentless mechanism that forces you to experience both sides of every action.
You are a soul here to understand duality. If you caused pain to another person, life will eventually place you in a similar situation — not to destroy you, but to teach you what that experience truly feels like. The lesson continues until awareness is reached.
Here is how the process unfolds in real life, step by step — without illusions.
1. The Beginning of the Cycle: “It’s Just a Little Fun”
Imagine someone entering a relationship, marriage, or family. On a deeper level, an invisible agreement is made: loyalty, respect, protection, trust.
But then comes the temptation to seek pleasure elsewhere.
The mind says:
“It’s just a moment.”
“It means nothing.”
“I have needs.”
In reality, that person destroys trust, emotionally destabilizes their partner, damages their family, and shatters the world of someone who believed in them.
They think they escaped consequences.
They didn’t.
At that very moment, the karmic mechanism was activated. There is no lightning strike from the sky — only delay. That delay is why people fail to connect actions with consequences.
2. The First Return: Becoming the Victim
In this life or another, the roles reverse.
Balance demands experience. You must eventually feel what you created in others.
Now you become the one betrayed, abandoned, manipulated, humiliated, or emotionally destroyed. The pain cuts deeply because the soul is finally experiencing the other side of the wound.
This is not random suffering.
It is an opportunity for understanding.
Will you finally realize the true weight of intimacy, trust, and respect? Will you understand that human connection can either heal or destroy a soul?
If awareness appears, the cycle can stop.
If not, the process continues.
3. The Second Cycle: From Victim to Perpetrator
When the lesson is not understood, trauma creates new beliefs:
“The world is cruel.”
“Love is fake.”
“Power is the only protection.”
Instead of developing compassion, the wounded person becomes the one who wounds others. They manipulate, cheat, control, or inflict pain in order to regain a sense of power.
But this only deepens the karmic cycle.
Every new act strengthens the lesson that must eventually be learned. Karma does not disappear. It compounds.
The suffering becomes more intense because now the person carries both old wounds and newly created ones.
4. The Third Cycle: Total Collapse
If awareness still does not arrive, the lesson intensifies.
The person may lose freedom, dignity, relationships, peace, or identity itself. They may experience situations where they are treated as an object rather than a human being.
Why?
Because the soul must finally understand the value of freedom, boundaries, respect, and the sacredness of another person’s body, emotions, and trust.
In that darkness, the ego begins to break.
Eventually the soul says:
“I never want to cause this pain to another living being again.”
And only then can the cycle end.
5. Why So Many People Cannot Find Healthy Love
Modern suffering often appears emotionally instead of physically.
Relationships are chaotic. People cheat, manipulate, lie, ghost, and emotionally damage one another. Many ask:
“Why does this keep happening to me?”
From a karmic perspective, unresolved inner patterns continue attracting the same lessons.
Old trauma shapes beliefs, and those beliefs shape behavior. People unconsciously chase drama instead of peace because chaos feels familiar.
Life repeats the lesson until a person truly understands:
Respect, boundaries, honesty, and emotional responsibility are not optional. They are laws of balance.
There Is a Shortcut: Awareness
Extreme suffering is not required.
My own life was filled with conflict, isolation, disappointment, and emotional distance from others. I constantly felt disconnected and trapped in cycles of frustration.
Eventually, I reached a breaking point.
That was the moment of awakening.
I stopped blaming everyone else. I realized I had been participating in the creation of my own suffering through unconscious patterns, reactions, and beliefs.
The moment true awareness appeared, the cycle began to dissolve.
Relationships changed.
Inner peace appeared.
The suffering weakened.
The End of the Cycle
When karma is truly understood, something profound happens:
You no longer feel the need to hurt anyone — not through actions, words, or even thoughts.
You stop viewing suffering purely as punishment and begin seeing it as a lesson the soul is moving through for growth and awareness.
That is freedom.
That is inner peace.
That is emotional liberation.
These ideas — ego dissolution, repeating patterns, emotional suffering, awakening, and breaking destructive cycles — are explored in depth in the book Znaš li da drugi ljudi ne postoje.
It is not written as fiction, but as a guide for understanding the mechanisms behind suffering, consciousness, and transformation.
If its message is truly understood, it can save years of emotional pain and repeated cycles.
Time for peace.
Time for awareness.
Time for respect.
