Karma is a central concept in Hinduism and refers to the idea that every action has consequences that will affect an individual's future. According to Hindu belief, a person's karma is the sum total of all their actions, thoughts, and intentions in this life and previous lives. The law of karma states that good actions will result in good consequences, and bad actions will result in bad consequences, either in this life or in future lives. Therefore, every individual is responsible for their own actions and their own destiny. The role of karma in Hinduism is to provide an explanation for why there is suffering in the world and to encourage individuals to live a virtuous life, with the hope of attaining a better rebirth in the next life. In Hinduism, the ultimate goal is to achieve liberation from the cycle of birth and death, and the law of karma is seen as a means of achieving this goal by guiding individuals towards actions that will lead to spiritual growth and eventual enlightenment.
