What does karma mean?
Q : What does karma mean? Is it only what we do with our hands or the thoughts swarming our mind are also actions? I don't harm any one but I do think bad for those whom I don't like. Is it the Karma which I am making for myself? Please Guide.

Answer
There are two schools of thought one says the thoughts which have been turned into an action is Karma and the another school say that every thought is a karma because that is from where the action actually originates, begins. If you don’t have a thought you won’t have any action. So action and thought are interrelated.
When you have not done something with your hands, then this might mean that you haven’t harmed or helped anyone. But when you think bad then you harm yourself and if you think good, positive even then you give this goodness to yourself.
So my understanding says that what ever we think affects us, whatever we do affects others. So you have to take care of yourself, there is no use of thinking ill or negative about others because these are malign thoughts and corrupt your head and your mind. So why create this mess for yourself!
