AI translationFuture karma; to be produced by present actions
Āgāmi-karma (also kriyamāṇa-karma) is the karma being created now, by present actions. Together with prārabdha (karma in progress, responsible for the current body) and sañcita (karma stored from past lives), it forms the triple division of karma in Vedānta. For the jñānī, āgāmi and sañcita are burned by knowledge; only prārabdha continues until exhausted. That is why the jñānī acts without accumulating, even while continuing to act.
