Quote:In reality Boru, in hinduism from where it originates, "karma" is not at all the concept of rebirth, nor does it have anything to do with it. That is total nonsense, stemming from a particular portion of "Bhagvad Gita" which is a cherry-picked subset of the "Mahabharata" a mythological story book. "Karma" simply means "action" and the concept is basically "one suffers the consequences of his or her actions".
Perfectly correct, but the poster I addressed specified being a Buddhist. In Buddhism, karma is what determines the cycle of rebirth. Had I been speaking to a Hindu, I would not have made the comment.
