Karma is a spiritual concept associated with cause and effect, it essentially states that our past actions influence our present and future experiences. Karma is widely believed to mean that what we put into the universe, good or bad, will somehow come back to us. When we feel hurt or wronged, there is a natural inclination towards wanting the person who caused the pain to experience the same. Even though it is not healthy or productive, a common way of comforting oneself is the belief in karma, trusting that justice will ultimately be served even if we ourselves may not be the deliverer of it.
The following quotes about ‘hurt’ and ‘karma’ express this sentiment and provide reflection on the relationships we maintain, the hardships we encounter, and how we conduct ourselves amid suffering and vengeance.
