INDIAN HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -The Buddha taught about karmic ‘conditioning’, which is a process by which a person’s nature is shaped by their moral actions. Every action we take molds our characters for the future. Both positive and negative traits can become magnified over time as we fall into habits. All of these cause us to acquire karma.

Detailed explanation-2: -Buddhists believe that human life is a cycle of suffering and rebirth, but that if one achieves a state of enlightenment (nirvana), it is possible to escape this cycle forever. Siddhartha Gautama was the first person to reach this state of enlightenment and was, and is still today, known as the Buddha.

Detailed explanation-3: -In contrast, the classical traditions of India-Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism, much like the Vedic sacrificial theology that preceded them-view karma as operating according to an autonomous causal law. No divine will or external agent intervenes in the relationship of the moral act to its inevitable result.

Detailed explanation-4: -The theory of karma as causation holds that: (1) executed actions of an individual affects the individual and the life he or she lives, and (2) the intentions of an individual affects the individual and the life he or she lives.

Detailed explanation-5: -Karma is just such a law of nature, the law of cause and effect on the psychophysical plane. The Buddha used the term karma specifically referring to volition, the intention or motive behind an action. He said that karma is volition, because it is the motivation behind the action that determines the karmic fruit.
