If you know what karma is the knowledge answers itself.
Karma is another word that people use for the Cause and Effect belief, in where causes have effects. If the cause (a good action for example) is done, than a GOOD effect would happen (I saved a baby from burning building, baby got to live YAY)
So most people don't understand it and think it is a magical force that has magical power.
Causes have effect, the system to many beliefs is called KARMA such as in my philosophic view
That's a rather simplistic view of cause and effect isn't it? I can do a bad thing to obtain a good result, and vice versa. And as for the 'magical power' thing, that kind of is what karma is if you're talking about it in a spiritual or religious sense. If karma isn't anything besides "Actions have consequences, be thougthful", then why use a special word with spiritual baggage?
