Yes, I suppose it's off-topic (although the whole thread is only partially on-topic given that we just briefly answered poor qqliudl's first question and haven't even addressed his/her second one). But I think your question about karma is intriguing.
Could it be that the negative path gains karma through failure to control, just as the postive path gains karma through failure to accept? That would mean that a sixth-density negative entity would have very little karma, since it can presumably control just about all interactions.
I found two relevant Ra quotes, one that could be construed to support the argument I'm making and one that does not seem to support it. In deference to the thread I will only post the links and then we can decide whether to continue the discussion here, elsewhere, or not at all.
Supporting quote.
Non-supporting quote.
BTW, qqliudl, feel free to jump in here and get this thread back on track!
