Title: Belief in Karma and Its Social Ramifications in Saṁsāra
Language of title: English
Author/Creator: Ugen Gombo

Description: The article looks at the relationship between the Buddhist theory of karma-and-rebirth and saṁsāra (i.e. life as it is lived ordinarily). While some work has been done to look at the relationship between religious belief and social ethics for Buddhism in general, this article looks more specifically at the Tibetan context.
