On Karma.

[Guest guest]

Revered List,

 

This world is multifaceted. As per quantum physics there are

infinite possibilities. Please mark the word "possibilities". Good

and bad and the consequences thereof are also "possibilities". From

the standpoint of the Atman there is no good or bad. It is only when

we are within the material form that we have to worry about good and

bad actions as the physical frame will have to bear the fruit

thereof. Pain is a sensation we dislike and pleasure is what we

crave for. Both are sensations equally painful for the soul as it

strives to go beyond them.

 

Therefore, while we are on this plane, those actions are good that

take us towards liberation and those are bad which make us forget

the need for the same.

 

We cannot deny the force of destiny. But we cannot also deny the

force of grace that allows us to escape our destiny. Therefore we

should try our best to attract that grace even as we fulfill our

secular needs and ambitions. Let us take the help of dharma while

fulfilling our duties and take the help of inner bhakti and

spiritual yearning to cut the bonds of karma. To be heroic in the

world and childlike before God is the secret.

 

Regards,

Jagannath.
