Yes, I definitely believe this. There were so many times that I wanted to seek revenge on someone but I always knew that revenge is wrong and it would back fire on me.

Karma will get you. If you intentionally do something bad to someone else you will get your just desserts. This isn't so much a religious belief that I grew up with but just something that I believe.

i believe that everything happens by chance, there is probably a scientific answer to karma, perhaps the human mindset and numerical chance are all part of the process of karma...
does not mean you shouldn't just do good things anyway...
I've done many bad things in my life and when something bad happens to me i do tend to accept it as "well i guess i kind of deserve this"

F.Y.I team: I no longer do bad things :-) i have grown self respecting and respecting of others.

In my life experiences I would have to say that karma does exist. I have always respected others and have been a law obiding person. However,there are other people i have know who have been liars, cheaters and worse and it did eventually come back and bite them on the ass.

I believe in karma, and it's not as a punishment. I just think that if we do something bad, sooner or later, we have to pay for that, somehow. Now that's assuming we don't own up to our misdeed or whatever. I think about karma a lot when watching NASCAR races. Yeah, I know that's strange, but it helps me focus on just my favorite driver and leave the others to deal with their own idiot driving moves. ;}

Do you believe in karma? Have you had any personal experiences with karma?

Nope. I don't believe in karma. It never worked for me, and I don't think it's real.

I am 100% in this KARMA thing. One good turn deserves another and bad things that you do will make it ways back to you. It is like the scientific fact cause and effect to me!
