The Laws of Karma: Principles, Misconceptions, and Practical Implications

The Laws of Karma: Principles, Misconceptions, and Practical Implications Saturday, May 16, 2026, 12 PM EST “Karma” is one of the most widely used—and widely misunderstood—concepts in today’s world. Often reduced to a simplistic idea of “what goes around comes around,” its deeper philosophical foundations and transformative potential are rarely explored. In this insightful webinar, we will revisit the classical principles of karma as understood in the Indian knowledge traditions, while addressing the many misconceptions that surround it today. Far from being a system of reward and punishment, karma is a sophisticated framework of action, intention, and consequence that shapes our experience and guides our growth. Together, we will explore: • What karma truly means—and what it does not mean • Common misunderstandings that limit our perspective • The deeper mechanics of action, intention, and outcome • How karma operates in everyday life, relationships, and decision-making • Practical ways to live more consciously and responsibly By reconnecting with the authentic understanding of karma, this session offers a powerful lens for self-awareness, ethical living, and personal transformation. Rather than viewing karma as fate, participants will discover how it serves as a dynamic tool for shaping a more intentional and meaningful life. This webinar also serves as an introduction to HUA’s course on Karma: Principles, Misconceptions, and Practical Implications, offering a deeper pathway for those who wish to study this timeless concept in a structured and rigorous way.
