Do you believe in Karma?
Before we go further into this, this is the web definition for the word "Karma":
In Hindu belief where the term originated, Karma is the idea that the good and evil a person does will return either in this life or in a later one. Among Pagans, the theory is that whatever negative or positive energies one sends out will come back to the sender in like kind. Karma is the belief system that is similar to the saying "what goes around, comes around".
As for the "Law of Karma":
In Buddhist teaching, the law of karma, says only this: `for every event that occurs, there will follow another event whose existence was caused by the first, and this second event will be pleasant or unpleasant according as its cause was skillful or unskillful.' A skillful event is one that is not accompanied by craving, resistance or delusions; an unskillful event is one that is accompanied by any one of those things.
Therefore, the law of Karma teaches that responsibility for unskillful actions is born by the person who commits them.
When it comes to my own personal view of this, I strongly agree that in order for this life, with all its beauty and dismays, to be fair, the "Law of Karma" should apply. Otherwise, how can one go on bearing the pain the disappointments form those whom he once loved with the idea that what happened, happened and the right thing to do is to forget it and move on??
I mean seriously, how could one forget the pain, the long nights he/she spent crying from the burning ache of loss and regret? How could they live to see another day if they feel that all that they are easily forgotten?
"Karma" might have been the only way out for me from my recurring pains of loss, seperation and regert..
So now, I'm gonna ask this again: Do you believe in "Karma"?
