It may be gloomy, but I think it is true. Choices make karma, no
matter which choice you make. The gods don't make choices, and
neither do animals (at least very often). Rather, they act in line
with their inner Self nature. This is pretty much what Adepts
do as well. When you are compassionate by nature, your choices
are very limited in what you can do, but then again, you produce
less karma.
