Karma Quotes
EASTERN
Here are some karma quotes that I hope inspire, entertain, and get you thinking.
The quotes on this page are from the East or from Eastern or Buddhist thinkers. I've also included sayings from the Bhagavad Gita and other texts, as well as from teachers and gurus. Most of these people have been steeped in the belief in reincarnation since birth, and their words derive from a deep understanding of cause and effect as it plays out over many lifetimes. For quotes Western thinkers, click here to take a look at the second karma quotes page on pastlivescoaching.com.

Rig Veda
Hindu Sacred Text
"The person desirous of success and strength should perform good karma continuously."
"One should perform karma with nonchalance without expecting the benefits because sooner or later one shall definitely get the fruits."
"The real happiness of life is in doing 'karma'."
"A person who performs good Karma (deeds) is always held in high esteem."
"If a householder molds himself according to the circumstances just like nature molds Herself according to seasons and performs his Karma, then only shall he acquire happiness."
Bhagavad Gita
Hindu Sacred Text
"As the blazing fire reduces wood to ashes, similarly, the fire of self-knowledge reduces all Karma to ashes."
Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche
Shambhala Buddhist Monk and Teacher
"Karma moves in two directions. If we act virtuously, the seed we plant will result in happiness. If we act non-virtuously, suffering results."
"Like gravity, karma is so basic we often don't even notice it."
Burmese Proverb
"Worthless people blame
their karma."
Tenzin Gyatso
14th Dalai Lama
"Dangerous consequences will follow when politicians and rulers forget moral principles. Whether we believe in God or Karma, ethics is the foundation of every religion."
Sri Guru Granth Sahib
Sikh Teacher
"Without the karma of good deeds, they are only destroying themselves."
"When good karma dawns, the wall of doubt is torn down."
"According to the karma of past actions, one's destiny unfolds, even though everyone wants to be so lucky."
"Those who act in ego do not go beyond karma."
Shariyat-Ki-Sugmad
Eckankar, Book 2
"If the karma of man has brought him nothing more than a capacity to love, then he has not lived in vain for a thousand past lives. It is this love which makes the most humble of Souls so great that it lifts him beyond all life into the worlds of God."
Bodhidharma
Buddhist Monk
"Once you know the nature of anger and joy is empty and you let them go, you free yourself from karma."
"Still others commit all sorts of evil deeds, claiming karma doesn't exist. They erroneously maintain that since everything is empty, committing evil isn't wrong. Such persons fall into a hell of endless darkness with no hope of release. Those who are wise hold no such conception."
"To go from mortal to Buddha, you have to put an end to karma, nurture your awareness, and accept what life brings."
Kuan Yin
Northern Buddhist Goddess of Mercy
"There are the waves and there is the wind, seen and unseen forces. Everyone has these same elements in their lives, the seen and unseen, karma and free will."
"The thing about free will is that even if one has a huge bag of karma there is still a lot of free will for all those souls coming into the world."
