Just wondering what people's thoughts on this are... do you believe you get back what you dish out wether that be good or bad. Or do you think it's a load of nonsense?

I believe in 'cause and effect', 'action and reaction', 'acts and consequences' or however else you want to put it. But the idea of karma, not so much... I do believe in treating others kindly, and in compassion and empathy... but not for 'fear' of karma...

I've seen too much evil to believe that what goes around comes around! In fact the less morally bound people are, the further they are willing to go to avoid consequences! And they mostly get away with it!

People tend to use the saying "karma will get her/him" or "karma is a bitch" in a way that, to me, sounds very unevolved. By that I mean it implies some kind of righteous justice. This is far from what the principle of karma means in my understanding. Karma can be something that happens between two people when they have an issue they did not resolve in a previous life (if you go for that theory) such as anger or selfishness. BOTH have chosen to try and resolve that issue in this life and indeed it may take more "incarnations" to finally work through it. The theory being if they don't then the soul has not grown and so "karma" brings them similar situations repeatedly till they learn. A bit like a kid learning to go a bike. There is certainly no malice involved. Only self understanding and soul growth.

Just my view of course and not the full picture but I've tried to keep it simple

I wouldn't say karma catches them, they just grow a conscience and it starts eating them from the inside out I'm always a believer of being nice to those who are nice to me and blank the ones that aren't, I've no time for trying to get even with folk.... unless you really piss me off then you'll know it as you'll be on the receiving end of a slap

I try and do one good deed each day, yesterday I went to the dump with all the neighbours grass cuttings rather than it lying at the side of the pavement until the following day

I hugely believe in what goes around, comes around. And invariably, if you treat people badly, it's going to come back to you.

And as is almost the always the case, it's the ones who treat people badly in the first instance that react the worst to a wee taste of their own medicine.

At a philosophical level, take away conscience, and then does karma exist? It's a paradigm construct of higher human intellect to give purpose to ones being.

Do spiders or even mites have a concept of karma? Yet, they are just as living as we are.........

No I personally don't believe in karma. It would be great if there was such a thing though. There is some people in life who just don't seem to encounter certain things in life and never been "knocked down" in life and others who have been "knocked down" time and time again and just get up stronger than ever and the people who do the "knocking down" still go about life Unscrapped. I do believe in the whole what is for u won't go past you and everything happens for a reason. I see it as being dealt a hand of cards. Some of the cards are shitty but that's not important it's how u play the cards that is important. Why change a queen or king for a joker? That's flics theory

Ola _earded blossom. I do believe in everything happens for a reason etc. Karma i tend not to think negative thoughts and dont like to project them on others. But what goes around comes around mmm thats a controversial subject. If someone does me wrong i wouldnt wish bad luck on them or bad karma. Because if you wish them ill then chances are youll get that back for thinking it. Instead i believe in paying it forward xx

In regard to spiders etc... they are not creatures that "think", not that we know of anyway. Man is supposedly set apart because he has the ability to reason and make choices in how he behaves.

In regard to seeing others getting off scott free in life... we really don't know what they are working through or what the lack in life despite how happy they may look. In regard to people suffering... hard as it may be... I have often thought they face these difficult and seemingly harsh things because they need to learn something they have not previously dealt with well. I don't mean we should let folk who do others ill off with such behaviour but I do believe we don't deal with it well ourselves if we relish ill on others either.

My view of Karma is that is the spiritual embodiment of Newtonian principles:

For every action, there is an equal, and opposite reaction.

Then again, there is the old Scottish principle, "You'll get what's coming tae ye"!

In terms of spiritual development, Karma is about all that a person has done, is doing and will do. Karma is not about punishment or reward. It makes a person responsible for their own life, and how they treat other people during it.

(Nessarosa writing)

Karma seems to be a bit general and abstract for me.

I believe in the law of Three, its easier and people can take responsibility for lives. No one to blame but themselves.

"The Rule of Three (also Three-fold Law or Law of Return) is a religious tenet held by some Wiccans/Pagans. It states that whatever energy a person puts out into the world, be it positive or negative, will be returned to that person three times."

If you look around, you can see it in so many people. (Dont judge, observe)

i dunno anymore. i used to, i still believe in the adage 'its nice to be nice', but not karma anymore.

one of my brothers is a genuinly spiteful, horrrible person to people he doesnt know well or care about, he would happily spend a fortune trying to have some poor waitress on minimum wage sacked for accidentaly spilling something or whatever, where you or i would probably say 'ach its fine, dont be daft'... that sort of thing.

i have said all his life that karma was going to come back to kick his ass, it never has. he just glides along through life oblivious to others.

I'd say no to a strong idea of karma; yes to a weak one.

What I mean by strong karma is the idea that some external agency of the universe will come around and balance or fix things. Examples being the mystic concept of karma that is common, or actual reincarnation karma, or some law woven in to the universe, or God.

I don't believe in that.

What I do believe in is a societal karma. People interact with each other and in their interactions are nice or nasty, kind or hateful - or just neutral and indifferent. Those around you will have a tendency to respond to you in a way that depends on how you treat them.

That's a kind of weak karma. It has a tendency to redress the balance because we are tit-for-tat creatures. But it is made of people (in a not soylent green way ) and therefore has its flaws.

I would like to think that it exists.

Either way I try to live with a positivity about my own actions and concentrate on them rather than the negative actions of others.

Though occasionally, I must admit a wee smile when I hear of karmic payback arriving for folk who in my opinion perhaps require some balance restored,but I don't wish for it. It seems to happen of its own accord.

I do believe in what goes around comes around. Don't know why, maybe I've seen revenge slapping people that perhaps deserved it.

For that reason I don't often get mad when something happens to me, I think it's happened for a reason and if I've been wronged then there is a lesson to learn in it.
