Answer 1

The universe is like a mirror. What ever you put out into it will be reflected back at you so you can better understand how it feels to be the focus of this type of behavior.

This is a gift of love from the source that is intended to both teach and guide us to be more compassionate and loving to or fellow creatures.

Love and blessings.

Answer 2

There are many problems with the salvation-by works doctrine of reincarnation. First, there are many practical problems. For example:
1. We must ask, why does one get punished for something he or she cannot remember having done in a previous life?
2. If the purpose of karma is to rid humanity of its selfish desires, then why hasn't there been a noticeable improvement in human nature after all the millennia of reincarnations?
3. If reincarnation and the law of karma are so beneficial on a practical level, then how do advocates of this doctrine explain the immense and ever-worsening social and economic problems - including widespread poverty, starvation, disease, and horrible suffering - in India, where reincarnation has been systematically taught through out its history?
There are also many biblical problems with believing in reincarnation. For example, in 2 Corinthians 5:8 the apostle Paul states, "We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord." At death, the, the Christian immediately goes into the presence of the Lord, not into another body. In keeping with this. Luke 16:19-31 tells us that unbelievers at death go to a place of suffering, not into another body.
Further, Hebrews 9:27 assures us that "man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment." Each human being LIVES ONCE as a mortal on earth, DIES ONCE, and then FACES JUDGMENT. He does not have a second chance by reincarnating into another body.

Answer 3

Interesting question. Yes I do. That is to say I believe strongly in the Golden Rule, "do unto others as you have done unto you".
You can not expect to live a blessed life, all the while you are leading a dishonest or hurtful one.
If you are dishonest in your business dealings you can expect that somewhere down the road someone is going to wrong you, and you'll have nothing to say about it, due to the fact that you were not honest yourself.
Live your life and treat others in a Christ like manner, and there will be no need to worry about "Karma".
Hope this helps.

Answer 4

Yes I believe in karma. Karma is cause and effect, a "seed" that's planted when we think a thought or do some deed, whether harmful or non-harmful. When you plant a seed, when the right causes and conditions come together for that seed to ripen and grow, it does... and the object that it becomes is always much larger than the seed it emerged from.

Logically, the outcome of the seed will always be greater and of the same kind of result as the type of seed that was planted. You don't plant a pumpkin seed and a tomato plant arises... good seeds produce good "fruit" and harmful seeds produce harmful fruit.

It's all quite logical to me, per the Buddha's teachings. I invite you to analyze it yourself as he urges people to... never take his word nor mine on "faith".

Answer 5

This may not be a great example but hey!! I am a firm believer in KARMA! So i am one of those people that if i see you drop money i will pick it up and give it to you! Well one day i was at work ( i worked in a gas station ) and a really small old lady walked in! She was one of those customers that came in every day! Well she came in tho make a money order of about $300! She had a lot of cash on her that day! Well as she was walking out she dropped the money order! I ran up and gave it to her! Not thinking anything of it i went back to work and finished my shift and went home! When i came in the next day she was there waiting for me!! I walked up to her and said hello! She handed me a $5 scratch off and smiled! I walked into work and stuck the ticket in my pocket! I forgot about it for a few days! Well a week later i was at the laundry mat and i found the ticket in my pocket! I scratched it off and i had won $500 on a $10 scratch off!

Answer 6

Yes absolutely. You reap what you sow. It makes perfect sense. It explains why the huge social and intellectual inequality. It explains why we are here and where are we going. Karma does not depend on our beliefs. It's there whether we believe in it or not.

Answer 7

According to Hindu philosophy, 'karma' is the actions of a person bond in the cycle of births (reincarnation). It is believed that i) good actions cancells bad ones and ii) more good actions lead the person to better form of (hopeful) next birth. The ultimate gole is the form when the cycle of birth is stopped (nirvana).
I do not believe in this philosophy cause who knows that there is reincarnation. I know that death is the end of the human life.
Moreover, how can one know how much good work will lead me to 'nirvana'. And also who is the decider of what is good and bad.

Answer 8

I am a Christian now, so I can base it on the bible, but even before that, I always felt you reaped what you sowed.

It seems like the folks that were hateful, ugly, mean, or just plain brutal when younger that seemed to get away with murder, fate finally catches up with them. I have seen this a few times, and this is prolly bad, but it's satisfying on some levels.

You reap what you sow, but it takes a long time to sprout sometimes.

Answer 9

Karma seems to be a universal belief that is apparent in each and ever religion
the wording may be slightly different but it is there
give what you recieve
like attracts like
reap what you sow
etc
Karam is THE truth in everything

Answer 10

*Yes, because I see it everyday. We can kid ourselves and say it does not exist, but just look around and you will see it does. We get angry when people stral from us and it appears the thief goes free, but if we hang in there when they do get caught we usually find the thief has a very long criminal history and is very negative thinking because they feel life is against them, but it is all karma working. why do you think prisona are full of people who have many arrests and convictions? Karma.*
