When we talk about karma, it's a way of talking about causality or cause and effects, specifically in human life, in human moral life. It's the effect we cause on the world through our intentions - through our volition, through our will. And the Buddha was clear that when we are looking at the effects we are having, we have to pay attention not just to our actions, but we have to pay attention to our intention behind it.
