    Karma refers to the principle of cause and effect where an individual's intent and actions influence their future. Good intent and deeds contribute to good karma and happier rebirths, while bad intent and deeds contribute to bad karma and bad rebirths. There are four types of karma: Sanchita (accumulated actions), Aagami (future actions), Praarabdha (actions currently bearing fruit), and Kriyamana (current actions). Karma is considered an infinite loop, as any action through words, thoughts or deeds has an impact, and the karma cycle is responsible for an endless cycle of birth, death, and rebirth.

    INTRODUCTION

     WHAT IS KARMA?

    Karma in Sanskrit means an action, work, or deed, and its effect or


    consequences. In Indian religions, the term more specifically refers to a
    principle of cause and effect, often descriptively called the principle of
    karma, wherein intent and actions of an individual (cause) influence the
    future of that individual (effect): Good intent and good deeds contribute to
    good karma and happier rebirths,while bad intent and bad deeds
    contribute to bad karma and bad rebirths. As per some scripture, there is no
    link of rebirths with karma.

    FIG 1
    Karma symbols such as the endless knot are common cultural motifs in Asia. Endless knots
    symbolize interlinking of cause and effect, a karmic cycle that continues eternally.

    FIG 2
    Lotus symbolically represents karma in many Asian traditions.Lotus is also considered as a
    reminder that one can grow, share good karma and remain unstained even in muddy circumstances

     TYPES OF KARMA

    1. Sanchita Karma (Accumulated actions – Arrows in quiver)


    2. Aagami Karma (Future Karma – Arrow is about to discharge)
    3. Praarabdha Karma (Karma is about to act – Arrow is discharged and on
    the fly)
    4. Kriyamana Karma (Current Active Karma – Arrows hit the target )

     IS KARMA AN INFINITE LOOP?

    ‘Karma’ means action, to do something. Here, action refers to not only


    physical activity but also includes any mental actions. We can say that
    Karma happens through actions, words, and even thoughts.

    Considering the principle of cause and effect, any action performed through
    whichever means will have an impact. It is justified that good deeds must
    yield good results and evil deeds yield wrong results, and Karma theory
    follows the same.

    Now, how do we classify any action as good or bad? This topic is again
    very relative. Everyone has a different view of good and bad deeds.Broadly
    we can say good karma brings around positive impact and bad karma bring
    around negative implications.

    Be it good or bad karma; the karma cycle is responsible for placing a soul
    into endless infinite loops of birth and death.
