[bg 3.27] ...So the question arises, "If I am not the 'doer,' why do I get the karma?" Because of the sinful desire you had that caused material nature to carry out such reactions. You are not the doer, but you are the desirer. Consult Lord Krishna's Bhagavad-gita, he will explain. Because it was your desire, your body get's the reaction. YOU don't get the karma. Your material body and mind does. Next. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
