The definition of Karma

The teaching of karma (literally translated “action”) indicates that karma is something negative, the acting is wrong. Karma is something you must be released from. Karma is the reason for the poverty of the beggar, the illness of the sick, and the hopeless situation of the oppressed. They reap what they have sown in past lives. Karma is the reason for the prosperity of the rich, the good health of the robust, and the fortunate position of the oppressor. They are well off because they sowed well in the past. Thus, everyone is well off or bad off as he or she deserves. According to their philosophy the good karma is because a man avoids polluting himself. Good karma is a result of what you have avoided, rather than what you have actually done. (“Vital Information on: Reincarnation and the Transmigration of Souls,” c. Dialog Center),
