WHAT IS KARMA ?
103 Karma and an Individual
Karma apart from an individual is nothing; it is a factor of the individual, it is in him; apart from him it is mere matter and has nothing to do with his individuality. Because that person acted in a certain way, and used certain words, or entertained certain thoughts with a certain object in view, like generated certain forces which became assimilated with his individuality and therefore he is influenced by them. It is not a real separation; it is not a difference between the karma and the individual, it is the mode of behaviour of the individual. It is not entirely separate, in fact, from the person who generates it.
