Does it affect you later on?

1st off: Be careful about asking that kind of questions in here - you might get reported, just because the question is not in some peoples line of acceptable thinking.
Karma is simply an effect of an action. Try take a glass in your hand and throw it hard into the wall. The effect is 1) the glass shatters and 2) you'd have to pick up the glass or 3) You have your mom pick up the glass and you get grounded for a week.
Now as the reciever you can change the karma of other people by responding differently than expected. If you respond with kindness, you get a surprising turn in the people (depending on the level of their hatred of course, which can be seen here in R&S)

Many believe Karma is about what comes around goes around; there is truth in this statement.
Karma is about your "Imprint" on reality.
Your imprint is how you leave tracks in reality and how those tracks ( call them tracks in the dirt or snow) effect all others.
Most all view reality as the physical. The "right now, right here"; and this is farthest from the Truth.
As a spiritual being your present is focused in the physical; yet, there is a higher you, a higher self. Reality is boundless as "time-space" are a false tool of this reality alone. The tool is for the physical ralm we dwell in and no more. This tool teaches our "physical perscpetive" as the intentions are to show us we are miniscule. Call it a wake up call for the physical world.
Back to Karma.
Karma is energy, that track you left behind is an energy field of you, what you have done and to whom you have effected.
A negative Karma can effect one in a percieved negative manner in another "life". As Karma is energy it cannot be destroyed.
Karma follows you as it belongs "to you". Consider that Karma can be changed by positive thoughts also.
Say, one did something "long ago" that is regretable, one can change the Karmic nature of the event by thought. Thought being "Prayer" in religious term. One can look at the event and forgive oneself for the act and begin to look at the event as a learning period for self improvement. In this we revcerse "bad karma" as we need not be forgiven by the "victim" as in the true nature of reality there are no victims.

It's basically cause and effect. For every action a reaction.
The physics of the Universe, not just our little world.
Karma can belong to whole nations and races of people.
Many of the struggles between Men and Women are due to the fact we take turns being in Power on this World. That is to learn to use it "wisely". But of course some people let power go to their heads. So we have to learn to to make better decisions in the Here and Now.

karma is the same thing as the saying 'what go's around comes around' it will affect you later on and it can be a good thing or a bad thing depending on your actions

If you throw a stone into a pond, you were the cause and the splash and ripples is the effect.
Karma means action and implies cause and effect.
The effects are in like kind to the action...the two are not separate. As there is nothing truly separate in this world, your thoughts, words, and deeds too cause splashes in the world and it causes ripples (effects) that you will feel return to you - because you are not separate from it.

In my opinion, Karma is the universal law of balance...it does not judge, it just is...
Sometimes it is instant, sometimes it takes awhile, but the balance is always going to be there. Kind of like the three-fold rule.....whatever your true intent, comes back on you times 3...

It's the concept of what goes around comes around. EVERY religion has it, they just call it something else or say it with a different words
You reap what you sow
Do unto others as you would have then do unto to you
Wyrd and Orlog
Karma
The list goes on

Karma is the same as " you reap what you sow" "what comes around goes around"" and "you have made your bed, now lie in it"

certainly I believe in karma. What you give out, you'll get back.
I have to believe in karma...cause those ex-boyfriends have to get what is coming to them somehow.

It's an attempt to sabotage your mind. Other wise it would be called cause and effect. Interject magic into it and you undermine reality.
