Nemesis is the Greek goddess of balance, justice, retribution and vengeance.

While reading the Wikipedia article on Nemesis, I came to know that her name is related to the Greek word for giving each person their due. Does that mean Nemesis represents the principle of karma in the Greek world? [Karma, in eastern religions, roughly corresponds to 'as you sow, so you reap'.] When I googled this, I came to know that the Theosophical Society, and a few other organizations, use the word "Karma-Nemesis". So maybe this comparison has been there for sometime.

What do you think?
