The doubt that comes in many minds is if everything is One then the question of Karma doesn’t arise at all. It’s like one can do anything and get away with it.
Well, Oneness is beyond the conception of time, space and continuum. So in that respect there’s no Karma as such.
But the concept of name and form is within time, space and continuum and thus everything with a name and form (Nama-Rupa) automatically falls under the cycle of Karma.

When you say, ‘I don’t need to know this, this is not required for me.’ You are basically trading knowledge for ignorance.
You looked at that particular skill and decided to reject it as you thought you wouldn’t be able to implement it anywhere in your life. You focused on the skillset and not on the lesson it could teach you. This way you suppressed a very powerful tool of human evolution. The human curiosity.
A tiger also learns to hunt, a bird learns to fly rather acquires that necessary skillset. They instinctively do them and equally instinctively shun any other activity which they think is not necessary for them to learn.
Well, look where their instinctive behaviour got them in comparison to us. Imagine if they were as curious as humans or if they could be. A tiger would literally invent a weapon to hunt and a bird would discover something that it can fly in.
They couldn’t and we could. That is only because of our nature to remain curious.
So, remain curious.
Just not too much about what Mr. X or Ms.Y is doing. ?
