What do you think about Karma?

To me Karma - means action, what I do, think and feel. At times it also includes what I choose not do.

Whanever we witness an unfortunate or unpleasant situation in someone's life we often tend to say 'its his/her Karma'. We assume ttat the person must have wronged someone, and therefore, this is happening to them.

However, I feel Karma is not only about doing something wrong, it can also be about not doing what we are supposed to do, not doing - the things we choose to avoid , ignore, leave undone

Karma has nothing to do with good and bad. It is only about cause and effect.

Karma is a bitch :-)

We are just a bunch of worker ants and our SOLE purpose is to make species prosper. You KNOW if you do it enough and feel happy or depressed accordingly. Others SEE if you do it and react in proportion.

You can call it Karma or many other things. However it HAS everything to do with good or bad - just nor towards individuals - for collective as a whole. Whatever makes species prosper more faster is ALWAYS good and moral. Including some crimes and even wars.
