The word karma comes from the Sanskrit root *kri*, meaning 'to do' or 'action'. However, the philosophical and religious interpretations of exactly what is karma made of vary significantly across different traditions, from a physical substance to an energetic force based on intent.

Originating in ancient Greek philosophy, the concept of essentiality posits that objects and entities possess certain inherent, unchanging attributes that define their identity. This idea forms the basis of essentialism, a theory with broad implications across metaphysics, social sciences, and even everyday human cognition.

According to ancient traditions and many modern spiritual teachings, cravings are not merely physical desires but signals from our deeper self. While a sweet tooth is often dismissed as a simple indulgence, it can be a profound message from your spirit, your body, and your subconscious mind about unmet needs, emotional wounds, and energetic imbalances.
