Do you believe in karma?

[thecherryfox]

I have met some horrible people in my lifetime and I always prey on their downfall to get what they deserve - but it never comes. These people never get their karma, which enables them to continue to be horrible people who do horrible things. I wish it was real, but I don’t think it is. Do you believe in it? Do you have any stories of people getting their karma?

Karma as a spiritual concept determines what form you are reincarnated in based on your previous life. So no, I don't believe in it as I don't believe in reincarnation or any other form of "afterlife".

I don’t believe in it no. I mean… if there were karmic retribution and you practice say a religion where you’re allowed multiple spouses then you’d suffer no karma for ‘cheating’ etc because there’s no set universally accepted list of what’s right or wrong. What I DO believe in is that on some level we are all connected and I believe in vibrational energy. I think if you have a high vibration you tend to attract better things/situations in life, which would explain why someone who has done a lot of deliberate wrong and remains unaffected/unbothered by their actions, can go on to live a charmed life. I believe if you have a lower vibration that you’ll attract more negative circumstances so ultimately there is the potential that if we fell bad about something we’ve done well create our own karma and if we don’t, we won’t. (Im not talking about the horrible things that happen to us in life or word suffering… just say to day general life). In saying that, I have seen a couple of examples of karma that were mind blowing to me, but for now I would call it coincidence. I started thinking about low and high vibrational energy after reading a book called Stop That Bully by Steve Wharton and it really resonated with me.
