While karma is understood as bhagavAn's will, the sharIrAtma bhAva system of VA makes you understand how that will of bhagavAn truly operates
Your body often does things which gives you, the Atma, pleasure or displeasure in varying degrees+

Pleasure can be anything from having a good hairstyle to achieving goals like becoming fit enough to be an athlete etc. in varying degrees
Displeasure can be anything from having a passing bad/unwanted thought to contracting a deadly illness+

Similarly, Ishvara, who has all as his bodies, knows every intimate detail of those bodies and feels a like or dislike at their actions, which in turn is the puNya or pApa in varying degrees based on the severity of the action+
Because we are sentient beings unlike our own bodies which are insentient, we feel his pleasure or displeasure as effects of karma.
But unlike us, bhagavAn has no karma, as self-established support of all, and so does not feel joy or pleasure from the actions of his bodies//

ADD: prakR^iti is also his body. But as it has no sentience, and bhagavAn has no karma himself to feel it's bad effects, it merely exists to be used as he wishes.
