70 Buddha Quotes On Karma For A Balanced Life
Welcome to our curated collection of 100+ Buddha Quotes On Karma!
Karma comes from an old Sanskrit word that means “action.” Think of karma as a way to keep track of the good and bad things we do. It gives us back what we deserve based on whether our actions are nice or not so nice.
In short, karma means that everything we do, big or small, has some kind of effect. We might get rewarded or get in trouble for what we do, depending on whether it’s good or bad. Some folks believe in karma, and some don’t. But the religions of Hinduism and Buddhism really think it’s real.
In his quotes on karma, Buddha tells us that our choices can shape our future. Whether we’re kind or unkind, what we do makes a difference in our lives and the lives of others.
