Karma is a interesting thing really. If You are mean to people; you'll have bad luck. If you are kind to others, and you'll have a good day. This philosophy is very much true. In the Bible, it stress that kindness to others is the source of happiness.
Also it gives a sense of justice in the world as well. Take the governor in South Carolina for example. He cheated on his wife, he got caught and lost his reputation. Its fair. This can apply to my life as well. This kid need a dollar for lunch, I gave it to him. I didn't know him; and the next thing I know, I get a prefect on my English test.
I believe in Karma. Do you? Thoughts and opinions on it? Do you have good or bad karma?
also, i do believe in Karma. if you rob someone, your ass is either gonna get beat the hell up or robbed. and when that happens, you're not gettin any help with payback because that just WAS payback.
If You are mean to people; you'll have bad luck. If you are kind to others, and you'll have a good day.
I agree with GAGAMEN on this. It all depends. IF you're nice to someone, they may see fit to repay you. Or they may not. I don't think simply being nice will somehow shift universal forces to make your day better.
Woo for Buddhism? As for the people saying "But those and those did that and that and nothing happened" the Danish wiki has a nice way of describing it: If you have the karma to get hit by a car, but you live in the rain forest where there is no cars, that point of karma will not force itself upon you in this life. Reason and consequence.
i don't necessarily believe in good Karma (really good and helpful people die terrible painful deaths all the time), but bad Karma is definitely there.
Karma's also a Hindu belief -- And I think its more a belief than a "Supernatural Shift". I don't believe in it myself, but I think it would be more sensible to for the human to think either "Damn! I've been a jerk all day and now I don't know **** on this test!" -- As compared to "Man it was a good thing to give that kid some cash, and hey! Ray Bradbury was telling us 1) Blah blah blah blah blah *Circle*"
