The Law of Do-Undo TrapDoor
Doing is always easier than undoing.
Install a software, then uninstall it. Will everything be the same as before the installation? Most likely not. Some registry entries will likely be left behind, out of malice or sloppiness. And the same is true for environmental parameters.
That is why Windows becomes very slow after several months of use. I know, there are many registry cleaners. The very fact there are so many of them, just proves my point. But worse, none of them really work satisfactorily. You still need to manually do a regedit. Windows registry is really one of the worst inventions.
These days, you write something on the internet, and the search engine robots will pick it up and store it in their databases. It is easy to have a presence on the net. At first you feel proud that you can be found on the net, but after a while you feel that the information about you is inaccurate or incorrect. Then you discover that it is almost impossible to edit or delete your presence. Even old URL links that are now broken are still in the databases of search engines.
Again, it is easy to join Facebook, but even if you delete your account, some information is still kept about you (it is actually against privacy laws).
The law of do-undo trapdoor does not apply to the IT field only, it applies everywhere in our lives.
When you say something, it is "history", nothing can undo what you have said. Words travel faster than wind and rain and the fastest arrow..
Omar Khayyam said:
"The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ, Moves on: nor all your Piety nor Wit Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line, Nor all your Tears wash out a Word of it -- "
Destroying is easier than making. One can kill another, but can anyone bring the dead back to life?
Producing industrial products is much easier than "unproducing" them: industries left behind enormous industrial waste and environmental pollution.
Do-undo trapdoor is a one way door, easy to enter, but difficult to exit.
And so it is with Karma. Bad Karma is easy to generate.
There are instances when you can do without needing to worry about undoing. This happens when you love (or something similar) and expect nothing in return.
This is good Karma, it is "action in inaction" or Wu Wei.
