What is Karma? Who believe and who doesn't? And why? These questions stay in my mind, and will come out especially when I faced problem. I knew there's group of people doesn't believe in Karma as they think everything happened is the good thing. While a group of people who believe it always do something cautiously because they don't want to get the bad Karma. I think I'm in the middle of them. Sometimes, I really believe there's Karma, but sometimes I don't since there will be many questions in my mind arised about why this Karma happened. Eventhough, I do think a Karma lesson is good thing as we should be very awared of what we are doing and the effect to other peoples, but I'm still wondering why, what, when and how Karma means for.

I actually believe in Karma, myself. Though I do not worship it like other people are doing so. I keep my distances clean and my actions clean as well. I treat it more as "God can see what I am doing" So if I'm doing bad to other people -- the same thing will happen to me = Karma. If I do good, something good will happen to me = Karma. As "they" say it, don't do onto others what you don't want others to do onto you. ??? "Just give a little love and it'll all come back to you" ??? Cheers and I hope this counts!

I don't believe in transmigration of soul, and therefore I don't believe that the result of what someone in the past has done can be accumulated in my lifetime and thus affecting my life. Karma is possible if only transmigration of soul is possible. Because if transmigration is not possible then the question of why I have to suffer for something which someone else in the past has done becomes unanswerable.

Do you remember the name of the person and also the book's name? Whether to trust her or not depends on who publishes the book. Lot of people just write nonsense also so that readers may be captivated and the author may get money. However, reputed publishers will only publish books that has certain evidence or basis for such writings. Of course, just because reputed publishers have published that does not mean it can be right, but the point is that such enterprise would take the dialogue on the topic to a more credible level.

I don't believe in karma. I don't believe that the universe cares enough about people to keep track of the good and bad things they do.

I believe in this karma. Although some will take time to happen but it does. I know someone who did something wrong to another person. Then come flood, his pad got soaked up, and everything in that house floated. See, sometimes the thing you do for another person is not the exact thing that will happen to you. Sometimes its different.

I really don't believe much on this. What i believe is things happen for a reason. Doesn't mean it is coordinated with what you did previously, either it is wrong or right. I also believe everything that happened to you has a cause and that would be you. You get what you did, but that doesn't mean karma. Some of your wrong doings results to positive outcome for example when someone robbed a bank wand get away with the authorities swiftly then what would they become? Of course they'll get rich! Karma seems to have a definition of "what you to others, others will do unto you" or "if you do something wrong then someone will do something wrong to you as well" but it doesn't apply on the situation I've pointed out about the man who get rich after robbing a bank. So the so called "KARMA" doesn't work at all and maybe it just happened accidentally or just a coincidence and that's makes them look like a karma to others.

Hi Monsterfishlover, thanks for your comment. So do you mean when people does crime or bad to others, in other words it's allowed to be happened because that's actually the life should be like for getting a certain result/reason?

I think it has to do with how you are feeling. If you are in a bad mood, you could give others a bad mood. When you are happy, you give others happiness. I believe Karma is the energy people produce. If you have someone around that uses you, you get tired. He/she takes away all your energy and destroys your good karma. But, you don't have to let them. Most of the time I can feel it when someone has a bad karma (or bad karma day) . Just don't pay attention to them, en then you don't get there bad karma. That is the way I see it.

hello creyos! i believe in karma. Karma can either be good or bad and depending on the deed done, the corresponding karma will be given. I think it is God's way of dealing with our deeds here on Earth. If we do good things, we are likely to receive good karma for it. If we do bad things, hurt other people to gain something to our advantage, one sure would have bad karma. as to the question of when, well, nobody really knows or predicts when karma will be dealt with. Sometimes the karma is immediate while sometimes, it takes years for karma to find these people. It can be liken i think on rewards and punishment, that's what karma can be compared with. if you good deed, you will be rewarded with good karma, blessings and good graces. if we do someone wrong, we will surely receive the penalty for our deeds. hope i have shed some light on this karma thing to you. happy mylotting!

Yes, I believe in Karma. The good and bad that one did, it will come back to them eventually, either in this life or the next.

What goes around comes around, thats what KARMA is. Many believe on that premise, I for one believe it too. Remember the 3rd Law of Newton, in every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. So what do you think?

Personally, I do believe that there's karma. There's good and bad karma. I do believe that if you do good to other people, there's good karma coming in, it may not be now, you may not experience it but kids and family will definitely feel it. Same as bad karma, if you've done something bad to others, bad karma will come to you..
