karma theory



in this problem, we need to find a person's karma. For simplicity, we have simply a human in to only 3 aspect. The appearance, the brain and the heart. Therefore we can give each person a value ranging from 1 to 10 for each of the 3 characteristics. For example, i will give myself a 2 for look, 4 for heart and 9 for brain. Now, with that in mind we can now have a 3-d graph of x,y,z plane and a point to represent each one of us base on the 3 number we have given ourselves. Unfortunately, not all 3 aspect carry equal weightage. assuming, I give a multiplier of 1.3 to heart, intelligence a multiplier of 0.8. and outlook and multiplier of 1. Taking average of 5, the equilibrium karma level is 5^2+ (5*0.8)^2 + (5*1.3)^2=83.25. for my case its... 2^2+5.2^2+7.2^2=82.88. Now realise my karma is below the equilibrium, that means, i have bad karma (geez). Having said that, we can extend the plane we have and divide our cube into 8 cubes with different quadrant. How if you fall into a certain quadrant, what could be said about you and stuff.

problem with this theory:
a)need to define the 3 axis more clearly
b)need a more consistent and comprehensive way to grade the 3 axis
c)tweaking of multiplier
d)other variables of karma has been overlooked, ceteris paribus is not realistic
e)application... seriously, so what if we can calculate karma, does anyone even care?
