What is karma? Why do people say what goes around comes around? What is even law of cause and effect? Who made it? and should teens and students know about it? Is it anyhow related to destiny or luck?
There are so many people that believe in karma and the fact that there is a cosmic justice system which gives you what you sow.
You may have heard people saying about someone that they are so lucky,
or even that when you take birth, everything about your life is already written and you do exactly that.
On the other hand you also hear that "you create your own destiny" or about law of attraction. These end up making one think because they are 2 contradictory statements.
One says that you have no control over life but the other says you have every control of your life, that you create your own destiny.
Luck becomes a probability of events but destiny is something you create, work hard and manifest good.
But the question is, is it really so?
From a spiritual standpoint, the law of Karma or how it's known in the western world, law of cause and effect, is very well true.
Our vedas have elaborated upon the law of karma, types of karma, destiny, luck and what exactly is under your control in life.
As per the vedas, there are 3 types of karmas.
before proceeding further, the question is why should teens or even anyone be aware of this law?
Well because this law states based on your action there will a result to it.
And that result solely is borne by you and you only.
So a good deed will give good results but a bad deed will bring bad results to you.
Now it is not always instant as people think, every action and every thought goes into the universe and the cosmic power brings it back to you based on your action.
eg: a criminal may lead a life filled with money and not get caught due to their connections but, they always are in the fear of getting caught.
Law of karma is even explained in Bhagwad Gita.
The teens today do actions without giving it much or any thought, so they just end up reaping whatever they sow. Their life becomes a random and stressing mess of events.
Due to their mindless action they end up having a tough life which they say as bad luck or destiny.
So it is imperative for teens to know about the law of karma, the types of karma and how the result is given so that they start taking mindful actions.
Mindful actions lead to a well planned life because you are aware what to do and what not to do, so you end up taking charge of your life.
This leads to the universe noting your mindful actions and it in turn rewards you with good results.
What do these results look like?
Maybe good fortune, good fame, good family, good friends or good opportunities.
So luck, destiny are all the part of Karma and Karma alone.
Call it karma or cause and effect but it happens.
So be mindful of your actions and take charge of your life.
