In other words, 'What you do comes back to you'.
Rather than a higher being meting out punishment and reward, karma might be thought of as a quasi-spiritual version of Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion, 'To every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction'.
Belief in Karma is a belief in cause and effect--for every action there will be a result -- each and every action has consequences. Current circumstances are conditioned by previous actions and the future is conditioned by current actions.
It really is as simple as that. The rest is up to us -- thankfully.
