Do you guys believe in Karma? I do, but the only reason I do is because I hate how some people can get away with things while others do their honest things. Since life isn't even close to fair, I just believe in Karma because it's just a way for getting even or making it a little more fair, knowing that your good deeds would be rewarded and that you don't need revenge on someone for what they did to you. What about you guys?

i believe in karma, it is rightly said, what you sow, you reap that in greater quantities, so if we do good, we get more good; if we do bad, we get back more bad.. thanks for this nice discussion.. Have a nice day ahead. Professor ‘@Bhuwan@’. . Thanks

Given that there is plenty of contradictory evidence right in the world towards it, I'm going to really have to say that it is not something that I am going to believe. There are plenty of good people out there who tend to get kicked around and booted right off to the side, no matter how much good they do. And bad people who seem to really keep getting what they want, whenever I want, with no consequences whatsoever. Of course, there will be times where the misdeeds of people will catch up to them and people who do good will eventually get a well deserved pat right on the back. But this world is far from ideal and while we would like to think those things would happen, those things are not going to happen. So that would rather be some evidence right towards Karma not existing. Things do not happen rather that smoothly. Nothing is that ideal.

I sort of believe in karma and I am trying to be as nice as I can be to people as frequently as possible but I am also finding ( I believe) that the material world is more concrete sometimes than any amount of karma I think. Maybe I am wrong. Idk. I have not explored and experienced life as much as I want to yet with this approach to testing good karma but I shall.

Karma does exist on in some form. But it doesn't apply to everyone, let alone every situation. Many good people suffer throughout their lives. Many bad people receive more than they should. To say these statements aren't true either means you haven't meet people like this or you are lying to yourself.

I do believe all our deeds will someday be ultimately judged. No one will get away with any unfairness then.

maybe, but i think its not really the karma but the memory of those people who you treated unfair, wrong or with disrespect by you. they remember how bad you are or the act of goodness or kindness that you did to them and that is how they are going to repay you or react to you back when you are in need or whatever situation it might be.

I do belive in Karma to a certain extent. I have seen things happen to people who deserved it and couldn't think of a better reason than Karma. Then again, there are many people who lie, cheat, and steal and get away with it. Not sure if Karma will catch up to them one day or not, but I can only hope so.

Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. I have known persons who have done some very bad things to other people. Then it catches up with them. Something really bad happens to them and I think "it's their karma". But I also know of really terrible things happening to other persons who I believe to be really decent people. And I wonder why. Similarly, I know of persons who have done very bad things to other persons but they never seem to pay the price. They have really good lives no matter what they have done to other. Or at least that is how it seems. Who knows? I have some belief in karma some of the time. And other times, I wonder if there is such a thing as karma. I hope that there is karma and that we get rewarded for doing good and punished for doing bad.

Karma is actually a new word for me though I’ve seen it often have not been very familiar with its meaning as much as other people are. Is it possible if an equation could be written for Karma it would be.. K=GxB/t K=Karma G=good B=bad t=time Everything takes time to come into existence. This is rather scientific way to describe Karma I know but I’m struggling with the meanings so just trying to make a simple explanation of something so complicated. If we took into account time then every good deed and bad deed would be ____ ?

Well yes I do believe in Karma . Nobody gets away free from whatever he/she is doing. There is good and bad karma, meaning we get what we sow. It has been translated and delivered in many languages and context.But the end point is whatever we do there will always be consequences. That reaction from the action we made might not be seen immediately but it will have an effect and I fear it will be bigger. So let's not plot evil plans against those who do us harm. Let the consequences of their action speaks for themselves.
