“Karma isn’t the Problem"
"While there are good doctrinal reasons to say that in attaining nirvana buddhas have "transcended karma," for where you and I are standing now, it is much better to not think about "transcending karma." Instead, it is much better to understand the principle of karmic causality as the natural state of all phenomena. Based on this understanding, we can then choose to create the causes of happiness and abstain from the causes of suffering and keep making that choice until we have completely habituated that choice and thus become buddhas. At that point as buddhas, we won't need to even be concerned with 'transcending karma' anymore." - Dr. Lye
