In Hinduism and Buddhism, karma is the sum of a person's actions in their previous existence that decides their fate in the future. In other words, bad things happen to bad people. Usually, religion is refuted by scientists, but here we have a rare scenario of the opposite.
SCIENTISTS STUDY VIOLENT CRIME AND KARMA
In a recent study, scientists examined patients hospitalized for unintentional firearm injuries. Hospital programs typically focus on patients whose firearm injury was due to personal violence (assault). However, there is less information about victims of unintentional firearm injuries. Therefore, they want to see how the violence manifests itself before and after the firearm injury. A controlled study was conducted in Washington, D.C., for people aged 15 years or older.
SCIENTISTS CONCLUDE THAT KARMA IS REAL
In the results, scientists found that patients with accidental firearm injuries were more likely than those with other accidental injuries to have a history of violent crime in the past. In addition, these same individuals were more likely to have been arrested than the other group. The facts don't lie here. The science proves it. People with a violent past end up getting what they deserve. So keep that in mind.
DO WE NEED SCIENTISTS TO TELL US THAT KARMA EXISTS?
If this study helps support the myth with facts, do we really need this data to know that karma is real? Isn't it common sense that bad people end up getting what they deserve? In today's society, it may seem like the bad guys are winning, but we don't follow them day to day. Sure, there are good people who suffer, but there are also bad people who suffer. Being bad doesn't mean you get a free pass. It just means you have a better chance of getting what you deserve later in life. Being good may not bring you the immediate fame and fortune of the criminal variety, but in the long run, it's probably better for you. So next time, hold the door open for the old lady behind you. Karma might be watching.
