Most of us have heard the word Karma before. But how much do we really know about it, and is Karma a bitch?

Karma, or Kamma, refers to the concept that what goes around, comes around in our lives; that what you give, so shall you receive. The idea seems obvious enough. We innately understand that if we ‘do good’ we will in turn receive the same. If we are kind, we will come upon kindness from others.

Karma moves in two directions. If we act virtuously, the seed we plant will result in happiness. If we act non-virtuously, suffering results. Sakyong Mipham

So how is it then that Karma became a bitch? This common phrase is thrown around a lot, and it follows the idea that if someone has done wrong by you, then Karma will sort it out. That if you never got the apology you hoped for, you will taste revenge via Karma’s cosmic distribution.

But is this what Karma is really about? In an attempt to loosely understand it, have we reduced a powerful ancient concept to an oversimplified version of revenge and retribution?

What Is Karma?

As it is known in Hinduism and Buddhism, Karma refers to an energetic debt or credit that is created across multiple lifetimes, including this one we are living in now. But to whom is this debt or credit owed? In this lifetime it is you, credited or debited to you by your soul as it embodies it’s form from one life to the next. Therefore, the circumstances you have now are your doing, your responsibility, entrusted to you to grow and learn in this lifetime to make it and the next better.

But while we appreciate this sacred concept, we sometimes omit the necessary depth of understanding to apply the concept of Karma effectively in our lives.

For example, we have all perhaps once or twice entertained the idea that the person who broke our heart five years ago is going to get their Karma in this lifetime; and perhaps you will even have the pleasure of seeing it! But that is unlikely to say the least. The same goes for the reverse, if you have made a mistake in your life, the idea that you will end up sick, alone and miserable in your dying days is nothing short of absurd.

As with any spiritual concept, the concept of Karma cannot be simplified in this way, rather it requires deep consideration and respect. By attempting to label it as ‘being a bitch’ we eliminate the most important and useful aspect of the concept, self-enquiry and personal responsibility.

Understanding Karma

By intimately understanding Karma, we gain an opportunity to understand ourselves better. We gain consciousness around our life choices, which can usually be boiled down to two options: To harm or to heal. In each moment, we have the opportunity to question whether our actions are going to harm or heal others, the planet, or ourselves. When we make choices that are negative, we can be sure that Karma will return that. The same is true of the reverse.

This is how to understand and affect karma. You do not understand Karma if you are wishing it upon others, or hoping that Karma will come to your aid. Karma is affected by your life choices. Your Karma is you.

And because of this fact, Karma has the potential to become a spiritual practice. By bringing conscious awareness of our intentions into our day-to-day lives, i.e. to harm or to heal, over time, we become better people.

That is the true essence of Karma.

Lyrics – The Law of Karma – Inspirational Speech by Fearless Soul

You are a perfect reflection
of the choices you have made.
If you want better results,
make better choices.

We often find ourselves in situations in life
where we look around and say:
Oh my god, that can’t be a coincidence

You know those scenarios
where someone you know
does something bad and
a year later they have the same
exact thing happen to them?

Or how the most giving and caring people around you
also seem to be the happiest and tend to receive most as well?

Our universe is governed by
the law of cause and effect
or the law of karma.
And in a nutshell it states that
what goes around comes around

That your intent and your actions as a human being
is what directly creates the experiences that you go through
That there is no good deed that goes unrewarded
and no evil deed that goes unpunished.

That there is no such thing as a coincidence
and no such thing as a random act of kindness that comes your way.

That your state of mind and more specifically your peace of mind
is governed by your conscious and subconscious intents.

That there is no being in our universe who can harbour evil intents
without finding themselves in the midst of evil.

That there is no pure heart that
will not find itself among experiences of joy and purity.

That you as a human being
have the power to bring into your experiences
moments of joy
moments of excitement
moments of bliss
by creating those moments for other people.

That you can become a symbol of success
and have doors open for you if you have the
courage to open doors for others.

Now if you want to create a better future for yourself
if you want to have a universal force 
backing you up and in your corner

Then from this point on, it’s essential
that you purify your intents and your actions
especially towards other people

I promise that you will never be happy
if you are focused on making others miserable.
I assure that you will never be successful
if you wish failure onto others.
I guarantee you that you will never live in prosperity
if you create havoc for others.

We are all one
and we are all connected.
Now I can’t tell you if
this force is conscious or not,
but it does keep score
It does see you in moments of silence
It keeps track of your
moments of honesty and dishonesty
and it keeps record of the thoughts,
feelings and actions you take
each and every single day.

So purify yourself.

Let go of destructive thought
patterns and behaviours.

Rid yourself of toxic people who make it
easier to make negative decisions.

Stop gossiping about your co-workers
about your neighbours
about the person who makes
your sandwiches at subway.

Forget about all that.

And see the beauty in
yourself and in others
and operate in kindness
as a reflection of that beauty.

Plant your seeds now
and trust they will grow into the future.
