Publisher's summary

‘Imagine if karma went instant?’ said Anton. ‘How crazy would that be?’

What if we all woke one day to discover that every act of generosity was followed, soon after, by an unexpected windfall? If theft or betrayal led to rapid calamity? Within minutes, the effects of instant karma would be felt by each one of us. Within hours it wouldn’t just be ordinary folks trying to figure out the new order—it would be everyone from the President down.

Instant Karma is the story of that day. An extraordinary vision, by turns hilarious and poignant, and early adopters are quick to capitalise on the new dynamics while karma change deniers vehemently dig in their heels. A little-known Buddhist monk, Lama Tashi, suddenly becomes TV’s go-to man, sought out for the wisdom he imparts with such oceanic benevolence. Amid the roller coaster of events, Instant Karma takes us to unexplored places. How much would human behaviour change if we had to live with the immediate consequences of our actions?

Just wonderful!

I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of listening to this book. I only hoped that it would last longer however, I guess that is my feelings of being attached!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND

So sorry that I came to the end of the book. Could have gone on forever.
I always feel that way, listening to his books.
The “Dalai Lama’s cat” series are phenomenal.
So much philosophy and so much to learn from his books.
His narration is exceptional.
My thanks to all involved, JK.

Wonderful book

Such an inspiring, uplifting, and profound book about the concept of karma. How I wish it the conclusion of events described could come true!

A book to recommend to everyone

Having been fortunate enough to receive an advanced reader copy of Instant Karma, I have been having great fun first reading and now listening to this book. Love each new episode as the world struggles to understand and come to turns with the consequences of its actions. As I laughingly share some of the slightly crazy examples with my friends I have to think, Would I be doing that? Thank you David Michie for another thought provoking, assumption challenging book. I always appreciate your ability to bring humor to my learning. I also appreciate that you read your own books. Always well done!

I am recommending this book to all my friends, and suggest that you do too.

Interesting Concept

Thought provoking, sometimes confusing due to so many involved story lines. Took a bit of time to get used to the narration. Good read though.
