even in the bible it is written what you sow you will reap. pls can somebody tell me what this implies

lets say someone sows something bad through their actions, and asks for forgiveness, what will they reap ? do they still reap something bad or does forgiveness turn such a Karma into positive ?

odi asure
Evil become Good fortune

This is from the Odu Okanran meji in which the tale is told about the tall cock, akuko ogogoro, that wanted to bless but every time he opened his mouth curses were just coming out. however instead of bad things to happen blessings started to fall. The negative energy had been turned around to positive. this was all due to a certain rainfall that fell.


ojo pa akuko
rain fell on the cock
Ire re o di odi
his fortunes became negative

According to these religions, one's karmic "account balance" at the time of death is inherited via the state at which a person is reborn.[citation needed] During the course of each worldly life actions committed (for good or ill) determine the future destiny of each being in the process of becoming (evolution or devolution). In Buddhism, at death the underlying volitional impulses (Saṅkhāras) thus accrued and developed are carried and transmitted in a consciousness structure popularly known as the soul which, after an intermediate period (in Tibetan called the bardo), forms the basis for a new biological structure that will result in rebirth and a new life. This process is considered to go on until the person achieves moksha.
In Hinduism, it is avidya, or ignorance, of one's true self, that leads to ego-consciousness of the body and the phenomenal world. This grounds one in kāma (desire) and the perpetual chain of karma and reincarnation. Through egoism and desire one creates the causes for future becoming. The state of illusion that gives rise to this is known as Maya.
The Hindu Yoga traditions hold various beliefs. Moksha may be achieved by love of Ishwar/God (see bhakti movement, see Mirabai), by psycho-physical meditation (Raja Yoga), by discrimination of what is real and unreal through intense contemplation (Jnana Yoga) and through Karma Yoga, the path of selfless action that subverts the ego and enforces understanding of the unity of all.
In Surat Shabda Yoga, attaining self-realization results in jivan moksha/mukti, liberation/release from samsara, the cycle of karma and reincarnation while in the physical body.[citation needed]

karma is based on  saṃsāra.  the fundimental beliefs of ancient india and is an eastern belief system (buddists. sikhs, hindues, jains and was around long before christiaity).  if your talking the "golden rule" in chrisianity that is based on the three fold law of western europe.

I think that he means: as a man sows, so shall he reap.
and . . . : The wages of Sin is death.

posakosa:


you will reap what you sow,, then where does forgiveness come in and can't karma be reversed ? If someone does something bad and asks for forgiveness, can bad karma be turned to good ?! the bible talks about forgiveness, yea ?


When u sin God forgive and can still call u his son and accept u in heaven but u suffer the punishment for the sin like David and other people in the bible.
