    Karma! Do you really believe in it?
    We have all heard of it, most of us have used the term at one point or another in our lives and most of us use that term because it 'sounds nice'.

    "I would never do that. Never. Because I believe in Karma."
    "What comes around goes around!"

    Does it really?

    Does karma really exist though?

    If it does, is there immediate Karma or is it a lifelong thing that we won't realize for years or till death?

    Any personal examples?

    No karma, just life.. Good and bad will happen to everyone in their life.. Some true scums of the Earth will have great things happen to them.. Just as some great people will will be dealt a shitty hand sooner or later.. Thats just the way life works.. Just look at Jesus as an example, He lived life perfect and never wronged anyone, but in the end, endured torture before being killed..

      Karma was invented by someone with a guilty conscience to try to make themself feel better..

        I agree

        But I still use that karma expression at times. I do believe good things happen to good people. Not 100% of the time but more often than not. At least I hope that's the case.

          kinda strange you use Jesus as an example, as karma is not a christian belief, but anyway.........

          Most eastern cultures & religions, the really old ones, before jesus was born and power hungry white people ruled the world, beleive in karma

                If karma was real I wouldn't have lost 3 buzzer beaters this weekend. Are you telling me that it was a coincidence I lost Vanderbilt, Texas and Maryland games on a buzzer beater?

                  Why? did you volunteer at soup kitchen earlier and felt that 'karma' would benefit your gambling?

                      that proves that karma IS REAL

                      you don't want to lose buzzer beaters? well you should have thought of that when you publicly dissed me on here a couple of years ago

                      karma's a b*tch, ain't it?

                          karma is a word overused by us because we dont understand it fully. Its mainly a belief, like all other religious jibberish, but buddhism & taoism really have some nice finer points that, if I were a religious person & looking for something to fill a void in my life, I would turn to

                                  I think Karma is if you do a good deed, you should do a bad deed afterwards to keep the energy balance.

                                      bad karma can influence your heart. think too much abt just yourself, u pay w/some bad karma.

                                        Karma is real. Don't do something you don't want done to you. Basically the Golden Rule. Don't fuk your best friend's wife if you don't want somebody dogfukking your wife.
