What goes around comes back around, aka, karma will get you. And no, we're not quoting lyrics from a Justin Timberlake song. Okay, technically, we are. Psst, where are our ‘90s babies at? However, fun fact, the phrase did originate in the USA in the early 1970s. It's one of those inspirational quotes or sayings that is timeless and universal. And a little bird might have told us you are looking for more quotes about karma... Was the birdie right? Knew it! But before we go on to quotes on karma, let's explore the concept a little. Just a teeny bit.
The history of karma actually goes back eons. The word "karma" originated from the Sanskrit word "karman," which translates to "act." It is generally believed that our choices affect our current and future quality of life. Evil deeds result in bad karma, while good deeds create positive karma. Whether you believe in karma or not, the concept is pretty straightforward. Do good - get good back. Misbehave - eat dirt for it. Simple. Although Christians don't shy away from calling it karma, the principle is very similar to the Golden Rule, which states that you should treat others the way you want to be treated.
Below, we've compiled a lengthy selection of karma quotes that will hopefully shine some light on your life and inspire you to do more good acts for others. Is there a karma quote that inspired you to do a good deed today? Let us know!
