Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Karma is a concept of Hinduism which describes a system in which beneficial effects are derived from past beneficial actions and harmful effects from past harmful actions, creating a system of actions and reactions throughout a soul’s (jivatman’s) reincarnated lives, forming a cycle of rebirth.

Detailed explanation-2: -On a larger scale, karma determines where a person will be reborn and their status in their next life. Good karma can result in being born in one of the heavenly realms. Bad karma can cause rebirth as an animal, or torment in a hell realm. Buddhists try to cultivate good karma and avoid bad.

Detailed explanation-3: -In Hinduism, Moksha can be achieved through good karma. When your good deeds or karma outweigh your bad ones, your soul is finally liberated and experiences eternal joy and knowledge of the divine.

Detailed explanation-4: -The karma theories suggest that the realm, condition, and form depends on the quality and quantity of karma. In schools that believe in rebirth, every living being’s soul transmigrates (recycles) after death, carrying the seeds of Karmic impulses from life just completed, into another life and lifetime of karmas.

Detailed explanation-5: -In very simplified terms, karma is the Hindu belief that a person’s actions in life will determine their fate in the next life.
