The Karma philosophy has baffled people for centuries.The complexities of this phenomena have never been fully understood by many ancient civilisations nor will it ever be understood by the present.
The Law of Karma centers on the philosophy that as a man sows,so shall he reap.It is one of the major tenets of Hinduism and is an important part of the daily lives of Hindus.
Karma is born from desires and we are born from Karma.Much effort is placed in obtaining objects of desire and the fruits of such desire is produced in the form of pleasure and pain,joy and sorrow.
The fruits of Karma cannot be reaped in one lifetime.One has to go through numerous cycles of births and deaths in order to reap all the fruits of their Karma,be it good or bad.Performance of good actions and noble deeds produces the Karmic fruit of joy,happiness and peace while;the performing of evil and bad deeds produces the fruit of sorrow,unhappiness and pain.
The fruits of Karma not experienced in this lifetime is carried on to the next life so that the individual can get his full dues,whatever that may be.The deeds performed is what determines the character of the next existence.
Clearly it can be seen that the precepts of Karma is embedded in the science of reincarnation.One does not stop existing after death.The death process causes the soul to depart from one body into another and the benefits of one's past Karma continues until that soul achieves the supreme state of conciousness.
