That Sweet Bitch called Karma!:)

The above title may sound pretty offensive, but regardless of that, the people who linger at the receiving end of Karma's horrendous wrath would promptly agree to what I am talking about. Karma, as the definition goes by; is like an invisible force that carries the good and evil of a person. To sum it up in one sentence, its "What goes around comes around". That means that if a person does good, good fortune will come to him; likewise if the person commits evils, bad fortune will come to him. Its the basic concept which all religions revolve around. Although it defies pragmatism, it does form a comforting piece in the circle of life. Revenge maybe sweet, but Karma’s sweeter for those who cannot do much to settle scores. For many a good Samaritan  it is more like a deliberate shackle to stay put and be on their best behaviour. I pondered on this while watching my mother and sister offering namaz, this might hold true for the believers but what about the atheists and agnostics? Do they believe in this? Immediately the answer followed on its own.. ‘Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.’ Phew! Thanks to Newton, I can happily cross the non- believers off my checklist! Although it says opposite but there is a reaction nevertheless.. (who reads between the lines anyway!) Another intriguing situation crosses my mind wherein there are people who do not reap what they sow, where does Karma go at that time? The believers sought comfort in the concept of heaven and hell to make things even. The rest.. are probably left with an unanswered question, a void that may be filled by another scientist’s law, centuries later. Till then, I’m content yet cautious with that sweet sweet bitch called Karma!!
