Karma, Acceptance and Personal Choices
This part of content will explain the principles and beliefs of Indians regarding to Karma, Acceptance and Personal Choices.
Many Indians have a strong principle of acceptance through one’s life, or a belief that anything they do is being observed by their god. With that being said, Indians have this belief that good people will benefit from their good deeds, while those who made wrong doings will pay the price often in their next time also known as the ‘samsara’(the cycle of rebirth).
The interplay of these social, cultural and religious factors allows people to be accepting of life events and trajectories. However, this is not to be interpreted as Indians being unwilling to take responsibility for life circumstances. Many often contemplate how their actions may impact their future and make decisions accordingly. Some of India's youth are challenging a fatalistic perspective by asserting their free will to choose their vocation, spouse and other life factors. Indeed, as social mobility becomes more common, there is a growing belief that one can change their circumstances.
