Dear Anonymous,

I have written many articles on this blogspot about Karma. Perhaps you can find time to read them.
You can also find lots of theoretical explanation on the web just by typing KARMA.

From Buddhism, or for the matter any viewpoint, Karma is a noun describing a certain phenomenon just like in Scientific terminology - Action & Reaction.
Like in Economics, we accept the fact that there is a relation between Demand & Supply.
Like Demand & Supply, Karma is just another word used to describe a phenomenon.

You doubt the karmic theory as explained in your statement?

I believe you can best clear this doubt yourself by looking at your own life's experiences and also of those close to you.

For example, if you hurt some one, you will in turn get 'hurt' of some kind.
You verbally abused someone, you might get the same or get slap or beaten, depending on how the other party perceived your abuse.

Haha! Reading your statements, I actually gleaned some information of your state of mind when writing into Comments Box below the Q&A for article Tainted Food. Your usage of words is one pointer amongst others.

May I suggest you clear your mind and try to meditate or sit quietly for 20 minutes, paying attention to breathing in & out slowly and counting how many breath you take per minute.
