❓ Does Hinduism promote fatalism through karma?

Karma is often misunderstood as fatalistic predestination, but the Bhagavad Gita (2.47) emphasizes human agency and responsibility in action.

The law of karma is more about cause and effect than predetermined destiny. It teaches that our current actions shape future outcomes, emphasizing personal responsibility and choice. The concept includes Prarabdha (past karma), Sanchita (accumulated karma), and Kriyamana (present karma we're creating).

This understanding aligns with modern psychological concepts about how our choices and actions shape our life outcomes and personal growth.
