The Law of KarmaKarma, also known as Karman, is a basic concept common to Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism. The doctrine of Karma states that a person's state in this life is the result of both physical and mental actions in past incarnations, and action in this life can determine one's destiny in future incarnations. Karma is a natural and impersonal law of moral cause and effect and has no connection with the idea of ​​a supreme power decreeing the punishment or forgiveness of sins. Karmic law is universally applicable and only those who have achieved liberation from rebirth, called mukti (or moksha) or nirvana, can transcend it. (The Columbia Encyclopedia) Fundamental consciousness can be compared to a soil that receives imprints or seeds left by our actions. Once planted, these seeds remain in the soil of fundamental consciousness until the conditions for their germination and maturation have come together... the connection of the different phases of this process, from the causes, from the initial acts, up to their consequences, present and future experiences or the causality of actions. Meaning that the good or positive energy omitted by an individual will transfer that energy to another being until that time, even if that energy has transformed into different forms, it will eventually return to the person who created it. This is also true for its opposite, such as; if you betray a loved one by breaking their heart while you remain unharmed, in other words you do something negative towards someone, that energy is then brought back to you in a negative way too. The theory of Karma is the theory of cause and effect, of action and reaction; it is a natural law, which has nothing to do with the idea of ​​justice or r...... middle of paper ......ant or unpleasant depending on whether its cause was skilful or not. A skillful event is one that is not accompanied by craving, resistance, or disappointment; an unskillful event is one that is accompanied by any of these things. Therefore, the law of Karma teaches that the responsibility for harmful actions falls on the person who commits them. In the Buddhist vision, evil is not sin but ignorance.
