Karma got its power in there and made this guy slip into the gaggle of amphibians and took his life .
What are you on about ? S’not rocket science .

Some people don't understand the difference between reptiles and amphibians. Some people don't understand what karma means either.

The most common misconception about Karma is that it is divine retribution or punishment from God which it is definitely NOT.

Karma is the result of our actions which are determined by our desires which we put into practice.

The determining factor of Karma is INTENTION (saṅkalpa) so we think about something, resolve to achieve it, and then act - that act has three possibilities -

it produces joy, happiness and contributes to another’s good,
it causes pain, injury or detracts from the good of another.
It has a neutral effect on others but a positive or negative effect on oneself.

We experience the outcomes of our actions in all their many repercussions - this is the fruit of Karma. Positive actions produce possitive results, negative actions negative ones. Neutral acts don’t produce Karma per se but condition the way we think and may impact on our future desires, intentions and actions.

So address this process by first examining and reorganising you mind to clear out all negativity and try to think in a more positive way.

Think before you act! Remember that even simple actions have effects on others - so be very mindful of the way to speak to and treat others - since this will rebound upon you.

If you have hurt someone then ask forgiveness and make amends.

Remember that the two properties common to all sentient beings is that they all wish to be happy and to avoid suffering - so try to empathise with them and avoid increasing the suffering in the world. Strive to be a benevolent and beneficent presence in the world.
