Luck or Karma?
Do you believe in Karma? The law of cause and effect. If you do things with a sincere heart, with a good intention, somehow you life will improve slowly somewhere. Even when you face difficulties in certain path, you will overcome it easily. If you did something bad, you will find that your life in a mess.
Can someone be lucky all the time? Let’s say when you are very broke, somehow money will find way to enter your pocket; e.g u found rm500 note on the street, some old friend who borrowed money from you long time ago return the money to you, or maybe you will kena 4D. Who knows? Life is full of surprises but it can’t be good luck all the time. Failing exam, fell down while running, the plastic bag from your groceries shopping broke, doesn’t mean that you are having bad luck.
Luck is a very risky thing. If I don’t study for exam and depend on luck, then I think I’ll never pass it. But I believe in Karma. For the past 3 months, my life has been very easy going. I finished all my exams without any difficulties though the day before each exam I feel very kan cheong and stressful. For the effort that I put in, as long as I tried my best and don’t feel guilty about not studying and cheat for exam, each time I will get really easy question and pass my exam with good results.
Some people always wonder why do certain people live a happy life, always being pampered and loved, being beautiful and smart and they are always being envied. I think its Karma though it works slowly but it does happen.
Someone who was never beautiful, never had anyone notice her or praise her for being beautiful, but slowly, one day she might wake up finding herself looking like a princess. When she walks out her house, all eyes will be on her, guys worship her like goddess and girls envy her beauty. Because she always treats everybody sincerely, help those who are in need, love anyone regardless of who they are. This is her Good Karma.
A poor young man, he has to work very hard to provide his family food and shelter. No matter how hard it is out there, he works under the hot sun everyday without complaints for the love of his children and wife. Somehow one day someone would give him an opportunity to become successful, helps him expand his career and he becomes wealthier and can provide his children a comfortable house and good education. Good karma.
In life, don’t have to worry too much about what others think about you. Just be yourself and do everything with a pure intention. Whether we are faking it or really doing it, it will show. Do you realize that person who goes around backstabbing you always fail his exam or she had gained so much weight that she looks like an elephant now? Or did you notice that person who betray you is facing a lot of financial problem now (like his money got cheated, lose all money in sharemarket etc).
Karma may occur to you in a different ways, depends how you look at it. Someone might become smarter, happier, richer, prettier, more handsome, etc. Or it might go the other way round for those who have indecent intention towards other people and when doing something. They might be growing fatter, live a sadistic life filled with jealousy, beautiful face start growing pimples and turning uglier each day, face a lot of problems in life, etc.
How about mine?
Being able to wake up smiling everyday is my good karma. Being able to be loved and pampered by my family and Ken, it is a good karma. I have nothing more to ask. I just wish that all the people that I know, will be in the pink of health and happy everyday.
“Do onto others what you want others to do onto you.”
I think the most important thing is to stay positive no matter what happen.
Change our perspective on certain thing especially the bad one. Also, i believe things happen for a reason. It could be a test for you. If you passed, you gain good deal of experience and become a stronger person.
Merry christmas & happy new year~
Merry Christmas again to you!

Have a marry x-mas & happy new year!
I hope Karma doesn’t exist. If not, I’m screwed!
Yeah you’re right just do what you think is right without breaking the law of conscience thats enough..I do believe in karma..
Karma… For those who believe, no explanation is necessary. For those who do not, none will suffice.
I’m not a believer of karma, but everyone around me is a strong believer of karma. That way, i get to enjoy the benefits of karma without worrying bad stuff happening to me regardless how ‘bad’ i am..
Buddha or was it Mahatma Ghandi, or even the Bhagavad gita said (sorry can’t remember) karma is not earned and it does not return blessings. Karma is never about earning merits. Good karma is about doing good works. That is all. You might want to read the holy scriptures to understand it better.
I do not believe in Karma in the way you do. Because when we look at Karma that way, we risk being arrogant and proud when life is good. We would be tempted to think, “Oh I’m so fortunate because I have good karma, I did good things.” Now, that is ego and ego is not good for the soul’s progress. Similarly, Karma in your sense would explain that your cancer and my NF is due to bad Karma.
So I believe Karma is an act of service while renouncing the fruits. Service with renunciation, and that is the purest form of Karma that one can do. For good deeds without a pure heart or impure intentions (such as to receive blessings in return) will be shortlived and worthless.
True. But ahaha everyone else keep talking about Karma in that way. Probably got influenced by on9 games too much.
