Let's Gamify Goodness


Over the past few months, I’ve been quietly helping someone named Ram with a little side project, and I thought some of you might enjoy it.

Ram runs a mindfulness and meditation site called Ramapani, and he’s been exploring ways to make spiritual practice feel lighter, more playful, and a bit less… solemn. One of the ideas he came up with, and the one I’ve been helping him shape, is something called the World Karma Game.

It’s exactly what it sounds like: a simple, daily invitation to do something kind, log it, and watch the world’s total karma tick upward.

No accounts. No ads. No leaderboard of who’s “most spiritual.”

No tracking. No Cookies.

Just a gentle nudge toward doing one good thing a day, and a shared counter that grows as people contribute.

I liked the idea immediately. It’s small, it’s human, and it’s the sort of thing the internet could use more of. So I’ve been helping Ram with some of the writing, the structure, and the general shape of the experience. Nothing grand: just a quiet collaboration on something that feels wholesome.

If you’re curious, you can try it here:

It takes about ten seconds to participate. You do something kind, anything at all, and you add a point. That’s it.

What I love about it is how uncomplicated it is. There’s no moral scoreboard, no pressure to be perfect, no spiritual posturing. Just a tiny daily reminder that kindness counts, and that even the smallest actions add up when enough people take them.

Ram’s hope (and mine, if I’m honest) is that the counter eventually reaches one million. Not because a million is a magical number, but because it’s a symbol of what’s possible when lots of people do small things consistently.

Anyway, I don’t usually post here these days, but this felt worth sharing. If you’ve been part of this blog at any point over the last decade‑plus, you’ve already contributed more goodness to the world than you probably realise. This little project is just another way to keep that spirit alive.

If you try it, let me know what you think. And if you add a point, thank you, sincerely.
