chain of source and effect.
This matter, which produces the chain of cause and effects, of birth
and death, is called karma.
In Hinduism and Buddhism, they believed that karma is an atomic
matter and not a process.

disappearing to lonely places, along with humiliations of the body,
punishment and apology for sins, modesty, service, study,
meditation, and rejection of the ego.
