Karma (Sanskrit: à¤à¤°à¥à¤®; [ËkÉrmÉ]. ; Pali: kamma) means action, work or deed; it also refers to the spiritual principle of cause and effect where intent and actions of an individual (cause) influence the future of that individual (effect).
The origin of the word nirvana relates to religious enlightenment; it comes from the Sanskrit meaning extinction, disappearance of the individual to the universal. Achieving nirvana is to make earthly feelings like suffering and desire disappear. It's often used casually to mean any place of happiness, like if you love chocolate, going to Hershey's Park would be nirvana. On the other hand, if you're a Buddhist monk, it may take you years of meditating to reach nirvana.
