Is this proof that karma does work and acts in strange ways?

I think you thought about KARMA: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karma\n\nthe tenet of Karma may be simply stated 'if you do good things, good things will happen to you - if you do bad things, bad things will happen to you'

Well if there is a such thing as Karma...what ever pain the person he dumped felt he'll feel it multiplied by atleast 1000 and hopefully his D*** falls off.

?  If karma is a real thing, then you would carry it over from your past life.  It's not neccesarily the things you did in this life, but unpaid things from your past life that you could be suffering for.

There are four laws of karma:\n\n1. Karma is fixed.\n2. Karma increases.\n3. Karmic results are only experienced by one who created the cause for that experience.\n4. Karmic seeds do not lose their potency of their own accord.\n\nRegarding #2 - both positive and negative karmic results increase in potency unless they are obstructed. Positive results can be obstructed by anger, and other negative actions. Negative results can be obstructed through the directed positive actions of our Dharma practice, the Four Opponent Powers and so forth.\n\nRegarding #4 - 'of their own accord' means that unless we intervene with directed positive Dharma actions to purify and transform negative actions, those actions will never lose potency. They will perpetually have the power to bring us suffering.\n\nIf we do not have the power to transform negative karmic results, there is no way for us to attain enlightenment.\n\nThe Buddha stated three things which are misunderstandings about karma ---that everything:\n1) Is here due to no reason\n2) Is the creation of a god\n3) Is completely controlled by karma (so it becomes like a fate).\n\nWe can go on and on about how people suffer, whether someone is born without an arm or whether one is persecuted during a war or holocaust. I think the misunderstanding is the person who asked you the question is assuming that karma is a fate system. Karma is not a fate system.\n\nKarma plants a seed, and when certain conditions are around, that karmic seed ripens. Your life is not predetermined.\n\nkarma does not fall into these misunderstandings. The seed for the particular karma was present and was able to ripen under the conditions (such as an unhealthy maternity)... not because it was predetermined!\n\n*** simply stated, they'll have to wait til their 'bad seeds of karma' in their previous lives, to wear off.

Newton was talking about physical actions. Of course a lot of people believe in Karma...

Yes, because of Karma.  Whenever you do good, it will come back to you threefold.  The same holds true for when you do bad.  This follows you from life to life.  So it is always in your best interest to do good.  One does not cancel out the other.  So if you do someone bad, and then do something good, they will not cancel each other out.  It will prolong how many times you will need to return.

The law of karma is basically 'what goes around comes around' - if you put negative energy out into the world (by being cruel, or selfish, being deliberately unkind or careless) then it will come right back at you.  The good thing is, it works the same way for putting positive energy out there - you get that back, too.

No, because it doesn't.\nThere's a number of "proofs" out there that rely on dividing by 0, even when it's not obvious that's what's going on.\nDivide by zero, and you can prove anything!

Your belief in karma is not hurting your relationship with God therefore it is not a sin.\n\nBelieving that your good or bad actions affect all those around you is basic Christian doctrine. And although sin may be forgiven by God, you will have to live with its affects for the rest of your life.\n\nOther parts of karma is not in tune with Christianity. The part that how you live in this life will affect future lives. Christians do not believe in reincarnation.\n\nHow we get to heaven is also out of step with karma. Karma would say you have to be very very very good to deserve heaven. Christianity says no one can ever be that good.\n\nChristians believe that it is through the grace of God and the sacrifice of Jesus Christ that we gain heaven not through any effort on our part. Although we are expected to live in faith, hope, and love.\n\nWith love in Christ.

Your question is about Karma, but there's some truth about Karma that nobody today are prepared to accept. So I am not going to waste time mentioning it.\n\nIn very layman's explanation, I'll say that God is cause and effect itself. In Judaism, there's a saying that God is present in the good actions that we take. But then, it depends on how you will interpret God. Different people interpret God differently. So the answer to whether God does interfere with cause and effect will also be different. Even the interpretation on what exactly is cause and effect is also different among everyone and are mostly wrong.

karma in one way literally means deeds. each action has got a reaction. only when we finish  an assignment or task then onlly we will be able to comprehend the results whether good or evil, whatever our intention was.   an action which was already performed or completed cannot be changed or revised.   likewise the cycle of bith and death are beyond our desire or control.   we deserve the rewards whether we like or dislike for our deeds, good or bad.    so that is rather justifying our reward and the natural course decides the phenomena of our birth to reap the consequences of our past deeds.    since it ils rather unknown while being alive we do not regard them much and think only our mind and self  are  the supreme authority and indulge in activities in contrast to the dharmic karma- the righteous path- and repent in leisure.   still  GOD  is gracious enough to tread our path with options and if we chose the right one we get not only consolation but also salvation.

Karma - East meets West.

Yes! there is no other explanation. Every action has a reaction. Miracles are happening everyday. This is just one that happened to make it to the eye of the media and be documented. How many miracles happen everyday that you don't hear about??????

I am a believer in Karma. One of the reasons I come on here to help others is to keep the balance. If you're in tune with yourself, you can feel when things aren't right or feel out of sorts. The more positive your actions, the more I feel your aura reflects it. Good luck.

I WISH TO answer this question, a little technically or scientifically.\nJust like the fmous theory of conservation, even the actions, facts like responsibilities too can not be created nor distroyed.\nAs per this, Say,  I borrow some money from Mr.A, say ($100).  Now to nullify this action, I have to pay back $100 to Mr.A. Now let us assume, after borrowing $100 from Mr.A I dead. Note that the fact is not dead. Therefore to nullyfy the action I have to take birth/ re-born (What I made goes to 'sin' account as I failed to py back).  On the other hand, If Mr. A too dead, Now he has to born again to take it back from me.(Mr. A made a 'good' OR Punya, He will born to enjoy the  'Good'). Both do not enjoy the 'freedom' (Deliverence, or Moksha) of selection of their birth, as they are tied or bond by their Karma or the action).\n   \nWhat is the solution, when is the freedom ?.\nNow assume I am the Manager of a Bank and the Bank borrows about $ 100 billion from another Bank and I signed BUT for, The Bank. Now asume I dead. I need not re-born to give it back because I worked for the Bank, Next manager will pay.\n\nMeaning: If you dedicate all your works, and actions, here in this world, to the God and work for the universe, (i,e, Selfless actions), You are freed from your previous actions (Karmas) and the nature of your next birth is not bond by the previous action (karma), and it (re-birth) is in your hand. It is called the Freedom (Deliverence or Moksha). It means thereafter you are free to decide the nature of your birth. It is called atternal freedom, the 'Moksha'. After so many activties you would like to have a deep sleep(This is called 'Sushupti' in sanskrit). Similarly in this vast universe, if you are tired of repeating births and re-births, you can attain this (Sushupti) at your will as long as you wish,  with a total awarness of the ' DEEPSLEEP BLISS'  MURGING WITH the universal conciousness, called 'THURIIYA'   \nThis type of action (Karma) is called 'Nishkaama Karma' in hindu holy book, 'The Bhagavadgeetha'.
