As our ego-self, we are forever trying to find a meaning for our existence. If we identify in the least bit as spiritual, then karma is likely one way that we give meaning to events that arise in our lives.
Recently, within 2 days, I came across 3 discussions on karma (see section [6] below). There are no coincidences in a universe where everything connects to everything else. So that must mean it is time to write about karma. 😁
[1] Definitions of ‘Karma’
The most popular definition of karma is “fate or destiny resulting from one’s previous actions” (source).
So it is something we experience because of something we did.
Thus, another very common definition of karma is the universal law of cause-and-effect. That “law” is in many religious and spiritual traditions, as well as in our secular legal systems. It is fundamental to our moral and ethical understanding. “We reap what we sow”.
