Just as a carbon offset is good works for the environment used to mitigate pollution a KHARMA off-set is an act of charity or assistance given in order to off-set pranks, mischief or otherwise "evil" behaviour.
I helped push a car out of a snowbank as a Kharma off-set against the snow wall I built on my neighbours front door that toppled inside his house when he opened it.
