"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." FAB = -FBA

People do not realize what Isaac Newton's third law of motion really means.

Everything is balanced. Everything physical (matter/energy) goes back and forth in balanced circles, cycles, or the equivalent. Birth-death, old-young, big-small, strong-weak, start-stop, up-down, rich-poor, beginning-end, fast-slow, hot-cold, pain-pleasure, win-lose, day-night, full-empty, high-low, in-out, success-failure, united-divided, give-receive, creation-destruction, on-off, positive-negative, etc.

Positive and negative forces moving in balance are the physical universe.

There are no exceptions to the laws of nature Newton revealed. They apply to all matter and energy. Human beings are matter and energy, thus you and all humans are governed by the same laws.

Luck: Good luck and bad luck are the balance in action and the way the balance most affects our lives. Luck is manifested on many levels. There is the day-to-day luck, from little things like getting a good parking space or a bad one, to big things, such as winning the lottery or finding out you have cancer. Then there is the long-term luck. You are lucky if you are born with good looks, money, health, talent and intelligence. You are unlucky if you are born unattractive, poor, sickly and without talent or intelligence. Most people are in between the extremes, but it does not matter, because we are immortal, and it will all balance out. Luck will move back and forth; everyone will get equal amounts of good and bad luck.

What goes around comes around. Everyone gets their turn.

Death is the great equalizer: If you are born with advantages, you can have more good times than bad times in your life, but when you die, you are reborn with disadvantages, and have more bad times than good times and vice versa. In the long run, no one has it better or worse than anyone else does, because life will always balance eventually. It is the known nature of the universe we live in.

If you flip a coin a thousand times, it will come up heads about half the time and tails about half the time. The odds of random events are predictable; this is why Las Vegas always makes a profit on gambling year after year. You can see the truth if you look at the big picture. You will see that random events are predictable because they balance. It's a fundamental truth of life everyone knows, but ignores.

This is why on the Fourth of July, about 162 people will be killed in auto accidents, and every fourth, about the same amount are killed. An average of twelve auto accidents happen every minute; about six-thousand teenagers are killed in auto accidents every year in the US. About four million people are bitten by dogs.

Why is the number about the same every year?

Everything is determined, the beginning as well as the end, by forces over which we have no control. It is determined for insects as well as for the stars. Human beings, vegetables or cosmic dust; we all dance to a mysterious tune, intoned in the distance. Albert Einstein

Destiny: Not being in control does not mean our future is predestined. No one knows the future; the future cannot be known. Anything can happen. The only thing we can be certain of is that it will be a lot like it has been and be balanced.

The good news is, all of the best things are going to happen to you; the bad news is, so will all of the worst things, if you do not learn the truth.

People won't accept this because their minds seek complication. Life is infinitely complicated, our minds will never be able to completely understand all the details, there is a limit to our knowledge. We must simplify and look outwards at the big picture, its the only way we can understand our reality. Science only looks inwards towards the complicated details. Newtons Law may not be proven at the quantum level, but we don't live there. Imagine life is like a computer game, science is lost in the programming.



"Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction." - Albert Einstein



Besides, how can you deny the fact that the Universe is fair and in complete balance? When looking at nature simply we can see "Everything is balanced. Everything physical (matter/energy) goes back and forth in balanced circles, cycles, or the equivalent. Birth-death, old-young, big-small, strong-weak, start-stop, up-down, rich-poor, beginning-end, fast-slow, hot-cold, pain-pleasure, win-lose, day-night, full-empty, high-low, in-out, success-failure, united-divided, give-receive, creation-destruction, on-off, positive-negative, etc." The same observation of inner and outer space shows that everything is moving in balanced cycles, from atoms to the solar systems. If the universe was not in perfect balance it would not exist.

You are reading far to much into it. A Law in science is a collection of observations. Newton observed that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction and most observations since than have reaffirmed it but it does not hold at the quantum level just as Newtonian gravity doesn't hold at the quantum level. Extrapolating Newton's third law of motion into other areas when it doesn't hold in all circumstances in physics is giving the idea far too much work to do.



Leave Newton in physics and out of sociology, please.



"The odds of random events are predictable; this is why Las Vegas always makes a profit on gambling year after year."



Casinos make profits because they do not pay fair odds on games of chance. There is always a house edge - the 0 and 00 on a roulette wheel, the fact that the players at blackjack play first and if they bust, the money goes to the house even if the banker should bust later - and it is the house edge that pays the bills.

reaction is not the opposite of action

newtons third law simply means cause and affect

not exactly a balance restorer

karma goes way beyond the laws of motion

the laws of motion explain our actions on a physicsl plane

our action is the equivalent of throwing a rock into a still pond

the reaction is the ripple effect or wake we leave behind

its never about our intentions..as it is with karma

Newton was a scientists, unlike the person who wrote the article you cited.



Scientists know that laws only hold within the confines of the system that they describe. In the case of Newton's 3rd law, it is only true in an isolated system and only when talking about physical forces.



This cited article, along with my pseudo-scientific spiritual nonsense, takes true physics statements and applies them in unjustified ways. It is nonsense.

"People do not realize what Isaac Newton's third law of motion really means"



Including you, it would seem.



Newton's 3rd law is about forces and moving objects at a macro scale. Nothing more.

You're behind the times. Now we have Quantum WOO instead of Newtonian WOO.

Utter bullocks. That's not what it means at all.
