Answer preview
Hindus have a belief system about karma that teaches people the importance of learning from their mistakes by practicing good deeds in their lifetime, thus determining their next incarnation. However, I subscribe more to the westernized karma, which emphasizes that people get paid back for their evil or good deeds (Bhatia, 2007). In this case, I believe that my actions have consequences based on how I relate with others around me. This means that there is a reward or punishment for every deed I commit. Hence, to avoid harsh punishment, I should treat others well or engage in positive actions to get good rewards.
