  8. Kamma So what is kamma? • Kamma literally means 'intentional action', and this refers to the Buddhist belief in the Principle of Cause and Effect.  That is, every intentional act will give rise to a corresponding result, in either the present life or in a future one, when conditions are right. • The results of kamma are not rewards or punishments, but simply the results or outcome of intentional acts.Positive actions will eventually result in positive consequences, and negative actions will eventually result in negative consequences.
