Guest guest Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 While reading baba's recent post I remembered something which is relevant to dealing with such difficulties and karmic debts in ones life.These golden words about charity, forgiveness and fortitude. Christ: " But I tell you who hear me:Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who mistreat you. If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. Give to everyone who asks you and if anyone takes what belongs to you do not demand it back. Do to others as you would have them to do to you. If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? " Even " sinners " do that. And if you lend to those from whom you expecty repayment what credit is it to you? Even sinners lend to the sinners expecting to be repaid in full. But love your enemies, do good to them and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great and you will be the sons of the most high because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Be merciful just as your father is merciful. " So if someone becomes a cause of misery or problems we should remember that we are not free of blame. Its Gods grace and our karma together that have come back.
