Do you believe in Karma

[chiang2k6]

lol at people saying it's for weak-minded people, if anything it's a way of helping people do good more than bad by compelling them to. it doesn't mean that you let people walk over you...in fact, that's not what karma is. people that think that way don't have a moral foundation anyway. i believe in karma but like antoher NTer said above me, it's not about getting rewarded for doing the right thing as that should be a part of everybody without the need for incentives. if anything, it's a way of doing the right thing when you don't know whether you should or not because of the temptation...such as returning found money or a lost wallet because sometime in your life, you might lose money or your wallet...etc

agreed, I know plenty of good people that have had bad things happen to them.

"Karma" is self-inflicted punishment for the weak-minded. Man up, learn to live with regrets, and recognize that every year is built on seasons. You'll be fine.

karma is for real, its quite subtle at times and you probably won't know when it hits you, but if it does you'll know the repercussions. its basically justified revenge and its sweet too.
everything happens for a reason apparently

Except you can be a total ****, "repent" for it before you go to bed every night and erases all your transgressions.

Heavily flawed system. Or "mysterious" as you types like to put it

 

[b smooth 202]

Let me reiterate

the title of this thread should NOT be do you believe in karma..WHO cares what YOU believe

the title of this thread should be 'what is karma?' because everybody in this thread is following the simplistic American notion that karma is 'what goes around comes around' but its deeper than that...karma is universal LAW and part of Vedic science

what is good and bad? your perception of duality in this world is not correct...stop thinking like a simpleton and research for your self

Except you can be a total ****, "repent" for it before you go to bed every night and erases all your transgressions.

Heavily flawed system. Or "mysterious" as you types like to put it
85er logic 

  your precious  WESTERN 'scientific method' is FAR from correct. thats why this sick society is falling apart as we speak...know it alls like this think their empirical science can replace God.

If I don't believe in nothing else.... I believe in Karma

 

[young handsome]

karma isn't real...

lets say I find a wallet and I dont return it to its owner... Do i get bad karma? What if it was bad karma for that person to lose the wallet because they did someting wrong?

When exactly was society "together"? Also, will this "falling apart" ever end? 

 

[b smooth 202]

When was society together? Society has never been a utopian perfection there has always been winners and losers..its all about the makeup of the system

.if your an African man I shouldn't have to explain myself because the proof is in the pudding. The point is that the program here has run its course and a new program is on it's way.

How do you know nothing happens to them though?

 

[decemberlove]

I guess? But I try to do good things because guilt gets to me and a guilty feeling is the worst feeling

[wildmoodswings]

As much as I believe in the easter bunny, Neverland, or gaining good luck from a four-leaf clover or rabbit's foot.

 

[toast1985]

Not as much as I believe in character defects.

 

[so nyuh shi dae]

no, i try to be a decent person because i believe it's the right thing to do, not because i think that i'll be rewarded for it.
