Karma 2

[Guest guest]

windowtext; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman'">Sri Ramana Maharshi: Yes. If the

agent, upon whom the Karma depends, namely the ego, which has come into

existence between the body and the Self, merges in its source and loses its

form, how can the Karma, which depends upon it, survive? When there is no ‘I’

there is no Karma. Question: It is said that Prarabdha Karma is only a small

fraction of the Karma accumulated from previous lives. Is this true?

FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman'"> Sri Ramana Maharshi: A man might have

performed many Karmas in his previous births. A few of these alone will be

chosen for this birth and he will have to enjoy their fruits in this birth. It

is something like a slide show where the projectionist picks a few slides to be

exhibited at a performance; the remaining slides being reserved for another

performance. All this Karma can be destroyed by acquiring knowledge of the

Self. The different Karmas are the slides, Karmas being the result of past

experiences, and the mind is the projector. The projector must be destroyed so

that there will be no further reflection and no further births and no deaths.

Question: Who is the projectionist? What is the mechanism, which selects a small

portion of the Sanchita Karma and then decides that it shall be experienced as

Prarabdha Karma? Sri Ramana Mahrshi

AR-SA">: Individuals have to suffer their Karmas but Iswara manages to make the

best of their Karmas for his purpose. God manipulates the fruits of Karma but he

does not add or take away from it. The subconscious of man is a warehouse of

good and bad Karma. Iswara chooses from this warehouse what he sees will best

suit the spiritual evolution at the time of each man, whether pleasant or

painful. Thus there is nothing arbitrary. Sivaya Namah
