Mr. Altig’s Overview of the Wonderful Dharma of the Lotus Sutra

Karma’s Wheel is a haunting, bluesy folk ballad that delves into the inevitable journey of cause and consequence. The song draws inspiration from the timeless wisdom, “Bad deeds lead to future sufferings.” It paints a vivid picture. It shows how actions echo back to the soul in mysterious ways. Dionysus, the Greek god of revelry, sings the song. His earthy yet otherworldly voice brings the weight of karmic law to life.

The lyrics unfold like a fable: shadows, secrets, and fleeting moments all reveal the subtle traps woven by past actions. Through verses, we hear tales of words left unmeasured and deeds done in darkness, each carrying an unseen price. The chorus highlights the powerful notion that our choices have effects. They cast fragile hearts and fill familiar paths with reminders of our actions. The bridge poignantly reminds listeners that karma’s wheel turns without mercy, pulling us back to face what we have sown.

With a soulful blend of acoustic guitar, rolling basslines, and evocative keyboard notes, Karma’s Wheel surrounds listeners with eerie beauty. It invites introspection, creating a modern folk tale. This tale resonates deeply with anyone who has felt the weight of consequence.

[Verse]

When shadows whisper secrets dark

And hearts are heavy with their mark

The echoes of what once was bold

Will soon return a tale retold

[Verse 2]

A deed is done in moon’s faint light

A consequence will grip so tight

The wheels of fate they spin around

For every wrong a loss is found

[Chorus]

Bad deeds they boomerang back fast

In moments fragile hearts are cast

The suffering it finds a home

In paths where we once used to roam

[Verse 3]

A reckless word a fleeting glance

Will set the stage for second chance

But karma’s wheel it turns so true

The past will always find what’s due

[Bridge]

You can’t escape the seeds you’ve sown

In gardens wild they’ve overgrown

The tangles twist and pull you near

Reminding you that fate is clear

[Chorus]

Bad deeds they boomerang back fast

In moments fragile hearts are cast

The suffering it finds a home

In paths where we once used to roam
