Like those in China, Greece and Indian. I recently watch a utube show that discuss this and term that as collective kamma.

Not necessarily collective kamma, but probably good kamma-vipaka for many to be born in that time frame, when the Dispensation was starting and perhaps a chance at meeting the Buddha. Like any time frame, however, there were still evil people, wars, etc.

Some of the greats are in China and Greece during the same period.DNS wrote: ↑Wed Nov 24, 2021 4:54 amNot necessarily collective kamma, but probably good kamma-vipaka for many to be born in that time frame, when the Dispensation was starting and perhaps a chance at meeting the Buddha.
