“All lies within the currents of Causality”1

Etymology:

  • The French term “causalité” or the Latin term “causalitas” comes from the Latin term “causa” which translates to “cause”.

Definition:

  • Causality is the relationship between cause and effect.
  • The principle of Causality states that everything has a cause.

Details:

Causality is an abstract principle which shows how our world flows. It shows how an event can lead up to another event, showing the flow of chains of events. All of these flowing chains are combined together and called “Currents of Causality”. Everything in existence lies in it. No matter what you do, you cannot escape from the currents of causality. You are stuck in the chains of events unfolding since the dawn of the universe until it’s demise. I made it sound a little scary. But, in the most layman term, if you do something and something happens as a result, that is an example of causality.
