"According to Buddhism, there is a commensurate relationship
between cause and effect where pain and pleasure are concerned. The immediate
cause is karma. Karma means action. Tomorrow's events depend very much on
today's actions, this year's events on last year's, while this century's events
are linked with those of the previous centuries. The actions of previous
generations affect the lives of the generations that follow. This is also a kin
of karma. However, there is a difference between actions carried out by a group
of people or sentient beings jointly, and actions carried out by single person.
In individual cases, the actions of the earlier part of one's life have an
effect on the latter part of one's life."
~His Holiness The Dalai Lama
