Is Karma Real?

Question

CAn someone explain, because I feel I am a good person and do good things in life, but I had expereinced some truly difficult times in the past few months, and I wonder what I did to deserve it.

Answer 1

to a certain extent, yes it does exist. But it is not limited to one definition. the most common is what goes around comes around, but there’s another that says for every good there is a bad and for every bad there is a good… its all about balance… you probably are a good person but if u do too much good, bad will start to happn.. and if u do too much bad good will start to happn but it will come bak to bite ur *** later on… that’s why tv n junk food is bad for you n healthy food n being active is good for you….its a balance of the two meaning n a balance good n bad… I know it seams as if life is unfair but who said it had to be…my mind is spinnin with all these ideas of meanin n life but I hope I have helpd you out some how… n even though this may count as sumthin good, I hav done bad so it will balance

Answer 2

well bad times come and go, for the most part i believe karma is real, but if you want to go deeper , some people believe in rebirth, and the bad times you are experiencing now might be a debt you owe to someone or a reaction to something bad you did in your "previous" life. Its up to you too look at karma in the face and just tell yourself, I'm just getting what I deserved but when it passes I can enjoy life again.

Answer 3

Please understand Mia. "Good Karma" is created by how we act and behave in our existent. But guess what, shi_ is still going to happen. That is the way life works, the way the universe works. There is always something "good or bad" happening. It depends on how you perceive life as you know it. Doin the 'right thing' is good. It enpowers us. I know when I do stuff, I'm am truly doing it for me. Selfish? Ofcourse. Like the rest of the univerise. I do the things I do for whomever, but always for me. Look at reality. You will understand my friend. You are good....so keep it up. You will feel the love of your God through and through.

Answer 4

No one knows for sure (it can not be empirically proved) but it is a good way of rationalising all the injustices that you come across in the world. If a good person suffers, it is because of bad karma done in the past.

Answer 5

Here is a simple answer of what karma is: "Reap what you sew", "What comes around goes around", "law of cause and effect". Karma is real in some situations. If you do a bad job of fixing something and then two weeks later, it breaks, you can say that was karma. But to say that because I hurt someones feelings causes my mom to die, to say that is karma is total nonsense.

Answer 6

Karma is real! Your soul is never ending, but dont think of it as punishment for something "bad" that you did. It may just be to teach you something that will help you be stronger in the future.

Answer 7

karma is real man. what goes arroung comes arround.

heres a good quote by the way

Expecting life to treat you well because you are a good person is like expecting an angry bull not to charge because you are a vegetarian.--

Answer 8

MiaMia, I know what you are saying. The more you do, the more crap happens. I , too think I am a good person, but life has not been easy for me either. But I think one thing....there are people worse off than me.(and You sweetie) Try and stay positive and believe in yourself.

Answer 9

That may be karma of an earlier life.

Answer 10

I'm a big believer in Karma...what goes around comes around !!
