Hmm, I'm a bit undecided. On the one hand, I hesitate to believe that we human beings are as important to the universe, God, whatever (supposed that a higher spirit in any kind exists) that this spirit would care enough for us to set up kind of a master plan. Usually, I think we're only a nature caprice (and often I think: not even a good one!) and there's no sense or master plan behind all this. On the other hand, I really like the idea of karma as it suggests that there's not only a given sense in everything, but we even have the possibility to take influence.

The danger I see in the karma idea is the risk of simply accepting your life's circumstances as given fate - as a result from what you did in your former life (or lives). This might lead to a kind of passive attitude. Or - even worse - to judge people because of their fate; e. g. to think that one must have deserved a horrible fate like starving or illness or violence because of faults committed in former lives. I don't like that at all.

Dear Felicitas !

Thanks for your view, I believe karma is very important, and our luck is dependent on karma .

For one good karma god reward us many times good and for one bad karma god penalises many times bad

success and failures are dependent on our mind set, which is further dependent on our karma

with best regards

Deep in my mind i believe in karma in hope that the world is fair and everybody get what he deservs, and a little bit deeper in my mind i know that there is only luck and misfortune. There are to much examples out there that proves us one single fact : the world is unfair ^^

thanks for your views, good or bad results , success and failures, every thing is in our hand only

even luck is also in our hand, it is all about our mind set as you correctly identify one of the factor, but i would like to stress that it is most imp. factor. everything is your mind set. if yu think you can and if you think can't, in both cases you are right, success and failures are by your choice

and we get result of yur karma here only in this birth , we do not know if there was any past birth or of there will be future birth, we get result of our karma or to be precise " mind set" in this birth only

thanks again
keep in touch

thanks, since it is nothing to do with religion or spritualism,

it is about exploring - how to be successful and happy in life, what are the real laws of success, why some people are successful and some are not

people say that hard work is everything, but some people work very hard in life but still lead a poor life , why ? what are the real laws of success ? let us explore together

you are in right direction to identify the truth,

there is a very sutle thought of sanskrit, tht i would like 2 share vd u

"budham sharnam gachaami" means
move towards the light of knowledge

"sangham sharnam gachaami" means
move towards the abode of like minded beings that are moving towards the light of knowledge,

"Dhamam sharnam gachaami" means
after you are able to identify the sole purpose of your motion it will automatically take you towards karma

we need to really have patience in achieving success, generally we give up our karma when we are just one feet away from gold, because we are not able to keep patience and situation make it further hard to keep going, that is the reason why there are only very few highly successful people in this world. Patience give rise to balance of mind and a balanced mind can find good solution to all problems and get success

success and failures are just your mind set !!!!
