Karma is the Law of cause and effect. As to Karma, what man makes he or she can unmake, and this is often forgotten. Karma is not a hard and fast rule, it is changable according to mans attitude and desire. Not all Karma is bad, in spite of what he or she thinks, much of it is punitive and distressing owing to humanities ignorance and low stage of development. Food for thought!

Weather we believe it or not there are natural law of the universe. Karma is one of those laws, be it called what you like. For every action there is a reaction of equal or greater degree. You want good in your life? Do good in your life. Someone wrongs you, thank the higher power for the lesson and do good to them that wronged you. It will come back to you as it will come back to them. If you are a person that is do bad to others and getting ahead in life. Nothing bad is happening to you. Bummer for you, it will come back to you. Maybe not in this life, but it will come back. Do you want to pay in the next life?

Karma is simply the golden rule: what you give out is what you receive - either in the same or in similar form. You reap what you sow - your actions create that which you do live out now, whether this relates to a past/future life situation or to the present date.

Karma means that every time something bad happens to you, you totally deserved it, because you did something bad in a past life. Which you can't remember.

no necessarily...when something bad happens to you whether its done by an individual or jsut being caught in the crossfire so to speak..there is always a reason for it and IMO that reason always revolves around Karma...be it good or bad... I believe in Karma wholeheartedly but I am not the type to not give paybacks when seriously needed...I'm never petty about it I mean you'd have to do something pretty hardcore to myself or my kids for me to seek revenge/paybacks but I'll do it if I feel it needs to be done....however I am aware that it can come back on me but generally it doesnt, not like ppl would think it would...

Karma (Sanskrit: ???? from the root k?, "to do") is a word of ancient balls or activity and its subsequent results (also called karma-phala, "the fruits of action"). It is commonly understood as a term to denote the entire cycle of cause and effect as described in the philosophies of a number of Dharmic Religions such as Hinduism and Buddhism.

karma means my present deeds would have effects or would be paid in future... whether it is good karma or bad karma. If I don't see it in this life... I would see it in my next life. It explains why ppl that are good have to suffer at times due to some bad karma they have done in their previous life....

Karma means, to me... "What goes around, comes around", "you reap what you sow", and even "do unto others as you would have done unto you"... they are all examples. Karma can be good or bad and we may see karmic retribution in this life or another but it goes full-circle, like life. I'm totally for good karma, paying it forward, and treating people the way I want to be treated.

If you do something nice for someone then something nice should happen to you. If you do something bad then something bad will happen to you.

karma means a lot. If you are nice to others and help someone in need, good will come back to you. But if you hurt someone (unless you apologize and mean it), or seek revenge, you ae only asking for negativity to come.

what goes around comes around... if you do good by others you will receive good in return... if you do wrong by others you will eventually get what you deserve.. Karma is a wonderful thing..

karma is a sanskrit word refers to action. It is plainly explained as past live deeds and the effect now. The mind perceives through the senses and its feelings are stored like harddisk data storage.As long as there is data there, the minds reexperiences and creates new experiences.WHen there is no data or the datas are erased , the mind is free from the action of rexperiencing,therefore it has attained a state of liberation known as MUKTI. When we talk about karma, we also need to be familiar with this word 'Samskaras' meaning 'ripening into fruit or action'

every thinh we say or do is recorded by the laws of nature and we get reaction.if one kills 100 people the laws of state can kill hin once but the laws of nature will kill him 100 times.there is sukarma for every good action we get good result vikarma for sinful activities produce suffering and akarma activities which neither produce good or bad i.e service to a god

I am all about karma!! I firmly believe that what goes around comes around. If you do somebody wrong, somebody is going to hurt you just as bad. I've had my fair share of bad karma, now I'm just waiting on the good! :-)

you reap what you sow you get what you give whatever you send out comes back to you three fold basically if you do good things then good things will happen to you in return, if you do bad things then those actions will eventually catch up with you.

It means the consequences of your actions or what you get for what you do
