Guest guest Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 Thus Spake The Lord Karma is the cause of birth. Kaala (Time) is the cause of death. In the beginningless and endless Stream of Time, night and day, summer and winter, roll endlessly on; they are carried mercilessly on over the universe by the flood. The term of living beings diminishes with every day. While being carried forward in the flood, man is surprisingly unaware of his fate; he never spends a thought on his fast declining life-term. He is blind in his ignorance. Riches and wealth are short-lived; office and authority are temporary; the life-breath is a flickering flame in the wind. Youth is a three-day fair. Pleasure and fortunes are bundles of sorrow. Time flows fast, the physical frame of man deteriorates every second until it disintegrates in death. The mind that operates in that frame flutters from one desire to another without rest, but man does not know, nor does he care to know! He revels in untruth, injustice and unrest.
