FY SEM-I IKS: Three Karmas of Hinduism

 In Hinduism, the concept of karma—meaning "action" or "deed"—is central to understanding moral and spiritual progress. Karma refers to the principle of cause and effect where an individual's actions influence their future. Hindu philosophy categorizes karma into three types: Sanchita Karma, Prarabdha Karma, and Agami Karma. Each type represents different stages of action and consequences, guiding an individual's journey through cycles of rebirth and towards liberation (moksha).

1. Sanchita Karma (Accumulated Karma)

  • Definition: Sanchita Karma is the accumulated karma from all past lives and past actions, both good and bad. It is a storehouse of all deeds that have not yet yielded their results.
  • Significance: It represents the collective karma that has not yet been experienced and influences one's soul through different lifetimes.
  • Role in Rebirth: Sanchita Karma acts as a pool from which certain karmas are chosen to shape one’s current and future lives. This pool of karma impacts one’s spiritual evolution and, once exhausted, can help the soul attain moksha.

2. Prarabdha Karma (Karma in Fruition)

  • Definition: Prarabdha Karma is a portion of Sanchita Karma that has “ripened” and is ready to be experienced in the present life. It determines one’s life circumstances, such as health, relationships, and life events.
  • Significance: This karma is active in the current lifetime and is unavoidable. It explains why people experience different situations, and it must be lived out rather than avoided.
  • Role in Life: Since Prarabdha Karma is already in motion, it shapes the circumstances and challenges of an individual’s current life. However, one's response to it, through current actions, can shape future outcomes.

3. Agami Karma (Future Karma)

  • Definition: Agami Karma refers to the karma generated by current actions and intentions in this life, which will affect future lives. It is the karma one creates through free will in the present moment.
  • Significance: Agami Karma accumulates to form new Sanchita Karma, which can later influence future incarnations. By cultivating positive actions and intentions, individuals can improve their karma for future lives.
  • Role in Self-Improvement: Through conscious actions and spiritual practices, an individual can generate positive Agami Karma, gradually leading toward liberation from the cycle of birth and death.

Interrelation and Path to Liberation

  • These three karmas are interconnected, forming a continuous cycle that governs the journey of the soul across lifetimes.
  • Spiritual practices, such as devotion, meditation, and good deeds, can help reduce the impact of Sanchita and Agami Karma.
  • With conscious effort, one can create positive karma, gradually purifying the soul, reducing karmic debt, and progressing towards moksha.
