Do you believe what goes around comes around? If karma doesn't come around quickly, do you believe it will come back eventually?

I've always wondered if Karma was real. Sure as hell doesn't seem like it, cause some of the most evil people are still around ruling the earth. I'm like "Why are these people still here?" "How are they allowed to get away with this?" "When will they pay for their wickedness?" I wish Karma was real and came swiftly, cause it would stop a lot of people from doing horrible things.

Hi,
Karma is very much apparent in my life.  I put out my best efforts and rewards are drawn to me.  :angel11:

I definitely do believe in Karma, AKA 'What goes around comes around'. I try to treat others as I would like to be treated because I do believe you reap what you sow. I remember seeing a clip on tv (America's Dumbest?) where these 4 guys were handcuffed and chained to each other, so that they couldn't escape. Unfortunately they fancied their chances at eluding the police so decided to run for it - half of them went to the left of a streetlamp and half of the scallywags ran to the right of the streetlamp. It was hilarious! That's karma right there!

kar·ma
ˈkärmə/
noun
noun: karma

Karma: (in Hinduism and Buddhism) the sum of a person's actions in this and previous states of existence, viewed as deciding their fate in future existences.

informal: destiny or fate, following as effect from cause.

Absolutely not.

Are there that many Hindus and Buddhists using Fusion Cash? Color me amazed!  :o

I would like to hear about your prior existences on the forum if you would like to share.

My li'l fish is laughing. Can you hear him?

Its time to serve some meat & potatos.

Many in the world and even on this forum remind me of Pontius Piliate when he asked Jesus,what is truth?"As the record goes Jesus never answered that question.Why?Because he saw that Pilate really didnt care what the answer was.

To those that associate karma with a pre-existence,i guess its safe to say that they dont support bible.The bible doesnt speak of man having a pre-existence.Just when he was created.It only speaks of Jesus having a pre-existence in heaven as a spirt with his father before he accepted coming to earth as a man.

I understand many have a problem with Gods permission of wickedness or why karma doesnt deal with evil people sooner.Well to those that support bible remember how God dealt with Pharoah in Moses day.God told pharoah why he kept him in existence.That could be read in Exodus.Also Gods patience with sinners gives sinners time to repent as was shown with the Ninevites when Jonah told them to repent.Long suffering is fruitage of the spirit.We can see it with us how being that way is very healthy for us as well as giving others a chance to be dealt with with compassion intended.

2nd serving anyone?

As noted by some other poster, karma is a concept that comes from Eastern religions/philosophies that has to do with the sum of your actions affecting your "current" life.  In that sense, no I don't believe in karma because I don't believe in "past lives".

Clearly there are people out there who are unscrupulous and who have nothing bad (except ultimately dieing) happen to them.  On the other hand, there are exceptionally kind and considerate people who do have bad things happen to them.  To suggest this has anything to do with some kind of cosmic "karma" just seems to farcical to me.

yes, but not exactly same.
To me karma could come in different way, not the same form.

Yes I do. I have seen people do bad things and have bad luck. Sometimes it may take awhile for karma to catch up but it happens.

Yes, I have always believed that your actions come back to you ~ the good and the bad.  Our biggest judgment is yet to come one day to answer for all of our thoughts and actions.
Have a wonderful day!

No, I don't believe in karma.  I just believe that good and bad stuff happens to good and bad people.

I believe you will "reap what you sow" either in this world or the next one.
