Greetings greetings my name is Kaisanga and welcome to Radio Headspace on this marvelous Thursday.

Something that was instilled in me like as far as I can remember was this notion of having

good karma especially for my father he was the one that would always say Kaisanga do the right

thing you want your karma to be good and what really threw me for a loop is when something would go

wrong with him and he would say out loud my karma is off he believed his karma was responsible for

whatever negative thing occurred in that moment which I found very interesting the other phrase

I would often hear in my household was now you got to suffer the consequences and I usually heard

that statement following something I had done that was labeled bad so I was fully aware of the

notion of consequences at an early age as I continue to navigate this life of mine intentionally

bringing awareness to each moment as it occurs I recently started to really explore this notion of

karma versus consequences so today I thought I would share with you all what I've come up with so far

so this idea of karma karma is defined as the sum of a person's actions in this and previous

states of existence viewed as deciding their fate in the future existences as kind of the idea of

what you put out into the world is what you will receive back if you put out negativity you receive

negativity and vice versa if you put out positivity you receive positivity back now consequence is

defined as a result or effect of an action or condition so obviously based on these definitions

there's a lot of similarity between the two the way I see it karma refers to a more long term

idea of cause and effect and not just long term but also broad and general it refers to the negative

or positive energy that you put out that will come back to you whereas I feel like consequence

deals more in the present moment and is very specific for example if you don't study then you won't

do as well on the exam or if you lift weights every day then your muscles will develop

something that I have noticed over the years is how whether talking about karma or consequences
