I know people say do good and good comes back but does it work when people do bad?
I’ve had the ‘pleasure’ of crossing paths with some unkind people of late and I wonder how can you go through life being so vile? Why have you not been struck by lightening yet?
Do you think the things you put out really come back to kick you in the butt? |

Sadly not...

No I don't believe it is a thing at all .I've seen some people do some horrible things in life to others and they never have any repercussions and get away with it over and over. So no as far as I'm concerned there is no karma . |

Karma is real and the only reason why some people think it’s not as they only see one side of it
If they could see both sides then more people would accept . |

No, of course not. Furthermore, the idea is actively harmful. It encourages victim-blaming, it dissuades people from taking action against wrongdoers, and it persuades people to accept needless suffering.

I genuinely believe that Fabs is a bad Karma pit that I'm stuck in.
There are some truly horrible people on here who don't deserve to breathe the same air as normal folks.
To answer your question though, no it doesn't come around and kick them up the arse.
As with society in general nowadays, bad folks do well, good folks end up as door mats. |

Karma doesn't exist in itself.
People can go on doing what the hell they like and it will never catch up on them.
What happens is that eventually they meet their match in someone who won't put up with their shit ... and 'karma' gives them a dose of their own.
Also ... if you are a nasty shite you tend to attract other nasty shites and those nasty shites mistreat you.
It's not so much karma as people and life.

Is there a part of the universe keeping points and ready to take revenge? No. But those kinds of people, it speaks volumes on how unhappy they are in their own lives and that's why they project it onto others. I suppose in that sense, being unhappy is their karma.. Don't get angry at them, pity them and live your best life. |

It's a nice idea, like a caring God. But it's all just physics and maths in the end.
The one thing that I think does happen is that shitty people will upset lots of other people, who can then choose not to help/be nice/benevolent when they could be.
Same for being nice. If you are good to other people, a lot of them will choose to be good back to you. But that's not a cosmic force, it's their choice.

I think karma is just another way of saying if you do enough good for others then eventually it will be your turn when you are in need, on balance mixing with the right circle it will happen. On the flip side I also believe if you have done bad things then it will also come back to haunt you one day. I am first to admit to being on both sides of karma or whatever you want to call it, it's just lifes balance really. |

No it doesn’t.
I don’t believe in good or bad luck either, that states you can’t walk under a black cat, whilst your new shoes are on the table with a smashed mirror. Admittedly never opened an umbrella in the house, probably because I don’t own an umbrella
Just a load of nonsense, it’s nice when karma happens but it isn’t for some previous misdeeds. |

Karma in the actual sense does not happen, however, if you rub enough people the wrong way in the same environment or rounding it will eventually catch up to you. In many forms revenge, ostracize, beaten, frame, etc
A different environment usually means a new start or a reset. So different energy.
So karma is all about the energy good or bad, bear in mind what is good or bad is very subjective to the individual giving or taking and the surrounding area to take it or throw it back. |

I believe it can be one sided in a sense. Putting out good energy and being kind to others will more often than not see that reciprocated over time. Being an utter cunt many people get away with, but are their lives fulfilling with strong meaningful connections? And does that even matter if they're cunty and don't value those things anyway? I dont know. |

Karma isnt a real thing in the grand scope of things sadly.
Good people have bad things happen to them and bad people have good things happen to them. I've seen good people lose everything in a house fire followed by an absoulte scumbag winning the lottery a few weeks later.
I do however feel you get back what you put in for the most part at a personal level. If you're nice to people they are nice back for the most part. We just try to be nice and friendly to everyone and would take no joy in being mean or upsetting people (or worse).
Better to be surrounded by freinds and loved ones than enemies and foes imo.

If it does, it would mean that the inhabitants of much of Africa and and the Middle East are for some reason not very nice people who presumably richly deserve the fact that they live in war torn countries or areas with regular famines.
No it doesn't work in the slightest. Being nice or horible to others in no way affects your chances of getting cancer fir example though it may change the way others perceive you. After that, the way they treat you will depend more on your worth to them than how nice you are as a person.

I posted a similar topic regarding something that had happened to me in a work situation, where a guy I worked with had basically screwed me over, removed a promise to me from the owner of the firm and seen me get sacked, I asked should I try and get even and does Karma work.
This is one of the responses I got
"That was his karma, he got good karma because he is a good guy. And you got bad karma because youre a bad person.
Thats how karma works, you're supposed to understand you got bad luck cause youre a bad person and improve yourself, not sit there waiting for bad luck to fall upon someone.
Karma is also ruthless, it happens over multiple lives and you can be the nicest person in the world and have bad luck after bad luck, which means you were hitler in your past life, and you need to come to terms with that and become better"
Glad to see that there's some really nice people on here.
And no, I never did get even, he's living a great life that I should have had and I'm struggling and have been shunned. |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
I think most people imagine karma only works on other people and is there to exact revenge on people who've wronged them. If it exists in the way most people define it then surely anything bad that happens to us is the result of something bad we previously did.
I don't believe there's a universal profit and loss account though. Bad stuff happens to good people and vice versa. Learn from it or don't, the choice is yours. |

No it’s a false narrative that we feed ourselves to keep on “doing the right thing” when we know we are unlikely to “profit” from it.
It would be nice to believe in the divine and to think that you would reap what you sow, but I am unsure how that would work in reality. It is true that some “profit” from unkind actions, whilst others seem to be weighed with the worlds woes, no matter how kind they are.
The sad fact of karma is that whilst it may appear to exist (a terrible acting person, eventually ends up friendless and alone) it does not (because that terrible acting person does not care, you cannot be “punished” if you do not feel the outcome is punishment) |

It absolutely does work, a lot of ppl just misinterpret the meaning of karma or invalidate it based on a couple of particular events without actually fully understanding the bigger picture
And just because bad things happen to good ppl doesnt mean karma doesnt exist, those bad things happened for it reason. Besides good things also happen to good ppl so if it wasnt karma then what was it? Luck?
I find it hilarious that someone could equate fortune to luck but then say karma doesnt exist. Its like saying god doesnt exist but santa claus is real |

Not necessarily. I wouldn't wish bad on anyone so I don't really stand by karma.
Why would I want someone to experience something bad, just because they've caused me to? No. I don't.

In my opinion it doesn't exist.
Life is a series of random events dictated by the cirumstances you happen to be in.
Chips just fall where they fall.
No rhyme or reason. Good bad or indifferent things happen to good bad and indifferent people. There's no logic in saying a bad deed will come back to haunt you or a good deed will bring you benefit or happiness in the future, because from my experience it usually doesn't.
To imply Karma is out there implies that there is a force or a god-like character monitoring our actions.
Which I don't think there is

disclosure - I'm not being serious..
The reality is everyone goes through good times and bad times. If you've been 'wronged' by an individual and then take some solice from them when they're going through a bad patch at a later date, that's 'karma' at work.
Personally I'd just wipe my mouth and move on rather than have someone occupying space in my head rent free. |

It's just the luck of the draw in the end.

Perhaps people say karmic forces exists cos of the lack of control they have in their lives? Something to blame?
We make good choices & bad choices in life. Live with your decisions or at least learn from them and move on or know when to avaoid them? That only comes from age and experience sadly. Sometimes too late!
No, I don't spend my life in a bucket of fanny's BTW. I'm in the shit with everyone else or just trying to avoid it.....
The good things I have is cos I've worked hard to attain them just like everyone ever!
Perhaps the type of person you are & the way you behave is nature over nurture?
There you are Op, your next thread???? |

"I once had a disagreement with my neighbor about me bringing a lawn mower through her back garden which I’m entitled to do, so I could cut my grass.she came out screaming and shouting about her dog getting out.the dog was in the house at the time. Anyway the next day I realised something was up when I heard her shouting Keira Keira and her bf getting a good shouting at,he’d only left the gate open and Keira the dog had bolted it took them hours to get her back.is this not a sort of karma
No, I think he just forgot to lock the gate."
The very next day after she screamed her head off at me and the first time in over 18months it’s ever happened.Ok |

Karma is a state of mind.
It has nothing to do with getting even, health, or wealth. Find abundant happiness within oneself, or choose to be angry with the world in some way and ultimately pay the price; depriving yourself of your own nirvana.

We are just lucky that there are nice people who offer a hand when we hit hard times and hopefully bad people get justice but I don’t think there is a cosmic force creating balance…. |

"Karma doesn't exist in itself.
People can go on doing what the hell they like and it will never catch up on them.
What happens is that eventually they meet their match in someone who won't put up with their shit ... and 'karma' gives them a dose of their own.
Also ... if you are a nasty shite you tend to attract other nasty shites and those nasty shites mistreat you.
It's not so much karma as people and life.

A load of old pony, but if you believe in it and it enriches your existence somehow, who am I to say otherwise. I have done nice things randomly, given generously occasionally, and I have been on the receiving end of the same. Are the two linked? Of course not.
Likewise, I’ve done stuff I’m not proud of, and have had ill will visit me, again not linked.
To quote a naff movie…” I tell you what I believe…..shit happens” |

No if something bad happens to a bad person it's just pure coincidence.
Karma is a strange word that bears no relevance to anything in life.
You can be a good person all your life and gain nothing in return. Be a bad person and live happily ever after.
If you're constantly searching or hoping for something that isn't there, you can become disillusioned with your life. |

If by karma people mean that if you put the work in you'll probably benefit from it later then it exists but that's not some external force controlling your life, that's you making decisions that pay off later on. |

Yes we could do with defining karma, I don't think it's a magical force but a series of random acts unrelated can come back on you... in a good or bad way.  |

I don't believe in Karma as such that do good and good will come back to you or do bad and bad will come back to you.
On the other hand though, I do think you get out of this world what you put in, so a persons intentions/actions do have a form of consequence. |

If you commit a bad act , who or what makes the decision on the severity of this "bad karma" you are going to receive? God? The cosmos?
Karma is just a coincidence that a good thing happened to you after a nice act, or a shitty thing happens to someone who committed a shitty act . |

That's not really Karma.
He just happened to get caught. That's it.
Karma came back on Lance Armstrong but didn't for million's of murdering dictators , bankers that fuck people over and all the rest.
Karma basically chooses who it affects? I don't think so.

"Don't see the correlation between entropy and karma.
Entropy increases in time nothing stays in equilibrium indefinitely.
Fair enough, you didn't tackle Newtons 3rd though? "
Not sure that that you understand the principles of science when you try and apply Newtonian physics to spirituality.
Firstly, Newtons laws can be demonstrated in repeatable experiments which Karma can't and secondly, we now know that Newtons laws aren't in fact fundamental laws of the universe. They only give a close enough approximation to be highly precise in any earth bound setting but fail to accurately describe reality at a cosmic scale. A more accurate description of reality is found in the theories of relativity and quantum mechanics, neither of which have room for Karma either

You don’t know that they are all suffering side effects. I know plenty of people who have taken PED’s, have boosted performance. , have not been caught and not suffered any side effects.
No such thing as karma. It’s an invention that make people believe that the world is fair when it isn’t, that some invisible force evens things out |

I’ve had the ‘pleasure’ of crossing paths with some unkind people of late and I wonder how can you go through life being so vile? Why have you not been struck by lightening yet?
Do you think the things you put out really come back to kick you in the butt? "

"I don’t think it does work, its just another way for humans to try and make order from chaos. I think its random.
Agreed. I wish it was real, but it's just a fabrication made up by people trying to impose the human concept of order on a universe that has none.
what a joyless little world you have, theres karma right there!
How am i imposing anything, lance cheated and got caught, the price he now pays is high, the cheats that couldnt beat him would have been laid in bed thinking... fuck i cant beat this guy and im cheating! filling myself with drugs suffering side effects.. (they didnt know he was back then) ... karma all round in cheat ville
So what happened to the Karma for all the other cyclists that cheated and didn't get caught?
Mr
And was karma on a 50 year holiday when jimmy saville was around?
Basically, when something bad happens to a person who has done bad things, some people like that say that that is karma. It isn’t.
Also, karma is not confined to bad things happening to bad people. It’s supposed to mean good things happening to good people for good actions.
it might be karma that you struggle to understand what is written down!
So here it is again....
the cheats that couldnt beat him would have been laid in bed thinking... fuck i cant beat this guy and im cheating! filling myself with drugs suffering side effects.. (they didnt know he was back then) ... karma all round in cheat ville
so they havent been caught by the authorities or drug tested BUT they are still paying a price you and I cant actually see or know! Karma. Think about it
You don’t know that they are all suffering side effects. I know plenty of people who have taken PED’s, have boosted performance. , have not been caught and not suffered any side effects.
No such thing as karma. It’s an invention that make people believe that the world is fair when it isn’t, that some invisible force evens things out "
So by your reckoning then there would have to be those who lived shitty lives who lived life being unfair and mean to people who lived long and prospered but you just don't know about them? We just can't see it.. |

That’s not what karma is. And again, only focussing on negative consequences for negative actions. |

“Karma” is supposed to mean good behaviours being rewarded by good outcomes. I’m sure we all recognise that that is bullshit, knowing plenty of people who love good lives, do good things, but life keeps giving them shit outcomes.
It’s a fantasy, an invention, and largely follows the same idea as religion, an unseen entity watching all of our actions and dishing out rewards / punishments.
I know that in modern life, people think that karma just means someone getting their comeuppance when they have been an arse, but that is not what karma actually means |

What about the good actions? Maybe they've balanced it out. |

Karma is not a “god”. It is basically good luck or bad luck deriving directly from one’s actions. |

Basically *in my opinion* if you believe karma is real you will see it everywhere thereby confirming your belief.
It's obvious to me from this and other threads that believers assume that karma is a)female and b) acts mostly against people who've done bad things.
That isn't my understanding of the philosophy at all. |

I dont think that but youd be typing a long time to explain, some people just cant seem to understand there are 2 sides to each situation, like the lance armstrong one, if he is exposed as a cheat, he suffers and those that didnt are vindicated (good karma)..... yes its a very simple example i know! and those that cheated and still didnt win were beaten by a cheat lol so there is lots of irony/karma going on there to!
It is a case of what goes around... anyone see my name is earl... whole series on karma! |
