karmic equations

How does one measure karma?

Is it a known figure, such as the measurement of how many feet in a yard? Or is it more ethereal, more ephemeral to the thought process behind the actions? Does it change from day to day? Or is it a cumulative result that can only be quantified at the end of one’s life? Is there a circle chart, or a line graph, that will allow us to know what the base line is? And who possess that chart/graph and am I allowed to see it before I die? For to know the results of one’s trajectory would be beneficial to influencing the outcome don’t you think? Or perhaps the objective is not the end result but the path that one takes to get to the end of the lesson? Is it possible to learn from your mistakes if you have no base line to compare them too? And what happens when the events that take place around you are so far out of your control that influencing the outcome is no longer an option?
