Everything has a cause and effect; that’s where karma steps in. Karma itself sounds so fascinating. You know what they say? What goes around comes back around? Although some people deny believing it, it is what keeps humanity alive. Everything you do, everything you think, every decision you make, every action you take has a consequence you are unaware of. Some people fear karma, some enjoy it, and some simply believe in karma to give people what they deserve. Do you think your actions go unnoticed? They don’t. Your actions will always have a reaction, a consequence and an impact in your life that you don’t realize. That is why your deeds matter more than you know.
WHO ARE YOU? DO YOU KNOW?
Most of our lives are spent figuring out who we are, who we want to be, and who we are supposed to be. What we don’t realize is that we are what we think, what we do, and what we intend. Karma shapes your identity, and it affects not only you but also those around you.
You do not need to do good deeds only to receive them in return. Your good deeds will have a positive effect on those around you, which will ultimately have a positive effect on you—is that karma? Yes. Karma happens in so many ways.
They say the ones who do the worst deeds are the ones karma never hits, but the ones who cause pain to others are the ones already suffering without realizing it. It’s simple: When you focus on giving pain, you will suffer. When you focus on giving happiness, you’ll receive joy.
Your deeds aren’t only reflected in karma; they also reflect your values, morals, and ethics. They show what kind of person you are. We all will leave this world someday, but guess what will remain? Our deeds. Your kindness, generosity, and the effect you have on people are something that they will carry in their hearts forever.
THE INFLUENCE KARMA CAN HAVE ON PEOPLE
Karma can affect you in many ways. It can destroy you as well as your loved ones. It plays out through interactions with your family, friends or romantic partners. The decisions you make, the things you say, and the actions you take will always have a consequence affecting you and the person related to you. It can lead to cracks in the family, heartbreaks, breakups and much more. Your actions sometimes have a consequence on somebody else’s life, and they remain with them for a really long time; that is why it is so important to consider things before taking a step.
Karma is a catalyst for personal growth. As we journey through life, our actions and thoughts play a pivotal role in shaping our character and identity. The transformative power of karma inspires us to evolve and become the best versions of ourselves.
Karma can have a life-altering effect on us, which we only realize later in life. Karma isn’t “not making mistakes;” it’s learning from them and understanding that your actions will always have an effect. Everybody makes mistakes; it is what makes us human, but the question is, did we learn something from them? Getting hurt and hurting others is inevitable. We can’t keep everyone happy, but what we can do is at least avoid hurting others by the actions that we take.
Karma is not a system of punishment or reward; it’s a mechanism that maintains balance in the universe. Our actions, whether good or bad, will always circle back to us in some form. Understanding this principle can bring a sense of reassurance and peace, knowing that the universe operates on a fair and just system of cause and effect.
HOW IS KARMA RELATED TO SPIRITUALITY?
Sometimes, karma does make us feel closer to spirituality and vice versa. It is the faith in karma that some of us put in order to avoid getting aggressive or seeking vengeance. It helps us find peace of mind. For instance, when someone betrays you, don’t you enter a revenge mode, wanting the person to feel what they made you feel? And you try to hurt them back, which eventually hurts you even more. It’s the cycle of our actions and the consequences that make us dwell in more pain. Some people who get hurt instantly cut that person off from their lives, which already is the karma of the person who hurt you. As I said, karma can hit a person in many ways.
When people realize that their deeds will ultimately affect their lives, they start doing better. We learn throughout our lives; it’s a never-ending process, and what helps us learn is nothing but karma – the consequences of our own actions.
HOW KARMA HELPS IN OUR PERSONAL GROWTH
Karma doesn’t only help us change and make us realize the rights and wrongs; it also helps us be better human beings. Growing mentally is something most of us don’t focus on. When you do good deeds, you feel a positive energy within yourself already. You start being internally happy, which ultimately starts changing your life positively.
In a world where kindness is almost dead, even small gestures towards somebody might be all they need to change their mood and energy. You might save someone’s life without even realizing it. A person who does good deeds and understands why it matters so much has cracked half of his life. Karma has an influence on us, inside and out. It changes our way of living and our way of making decisions and makes us consider not only ourselves but also the ones around us. It teaches us empathy, to be responsible and influences our future circumstances. Karma will always contribute to the person you’re becoming.
Life is not as long as we think, but our deeds remain here for a really long time. Karma is a concept that some people believe in, and others don’t. Our actions will always have an impact on us, everybody around us. We hold the power to what kind of impact we want to leave once we are gone. It is important to understand that the consequences of our actions can sometimes destroy lives or make them. Whatever we do will always return to us, in this life only. So, it’s up to you; what you desire from the universe will only come to you when you give out the same. It all really comes down to one thing – happiness and peace of mind. Life is unfair sometimes and will always be because that’s what life is, but it’s up to you if you want to be unfair or take karma into your hands.
CONCLUSION
Karma is not something to be achieved; it is a balance that must be maintained for people to realize that every cause, action, and thought will have an effect. Sometimes, you don’t instantly face the consequences, but in the long term, it will always be there, affecting you and the ones around you, and it is only when you can’t reverse it that you understand how important it is to act considerably. When you sit down and try connecting the dots, it will always connect in the end, and you will realize that whatever you become and whatever happens in your life, is all decided by you and no one else. You are writing your own story and blaming the universe or the god when things don’t go your way. Everything has a purpose, and everything happens for a purpose, but you can always decide that purpose. Do good deeds, put a smile on people’s faces, put a smile on your own face and navigate your way through life. You’re not supposed to have it all figured out, but the least you can do is just be good to yourself and the ones around you because, trust me, karma is real, and the things you do will always matter more than you think.
