What is karma, really? Many people use the word “karma” to describe instant justice or cosmic revenge—but the original concept is much deeper than that. In this video, we explore the origins of karma, what it means in different spiritual traditions, the types of karma often described in Hinduism and Buddhism and several common principles people associate with karma today. We’ll also discuss popular sayings like “what you sow, you reap” and “what you resist persists,” while separating traditional teachings from modern interpretations. Whether you approach karma as a spiritual belief, a philosophical idea, or simply a reminder that our choices have consequences, understanding its history and meaning can offer valuable insight into how we live our daily lives. Topics Covered: • What karma actually means • The origins of karma • Common misconceptions • The four types of karma • Intentions vs. actions • “What you sow, you reap” • “What you resist persists” • Can karma be changed? • Is karma the same as fate?
