Karma is the view of how our actions affect the world around us. In Hinduism (which is one of the religious beliefs that influenced yogic thought) it's our actions, thoughts, words, deeds and influence over others. The belief in reincarnation (which Hinduism also supports) means that we carry the sum total-good or bad-of those influences throughout our reincarnations.

In yoga, there are several schools of thought about karma and how to enhance the positive karma you carry. Devotional (Bhakti) yoga is one way. Another is through performing charitable or devotional acts. IN general, many schools of yogic thought hold that any compassionate action helps support positive karma.

The person cannot become a member of another caste. But some say that if that person was good, responsible and well-mannered, He or she could reincarnate (which means to be born again) and be born in a higher class, with a better life.Post remade by William
