If you have been given the power to write the destiny all the people in the world – how would you write for everyone?
Mostly the answer is happiness unlimited to everyone.
Would you write a destiny for someone that their business would crash or they should fall ill or someones child would leave the body at an young age?
Suppose, you don’t like someone or your relationship with them is not so nice and you have been given the power to write their destiny. Still you will not write anything bad. You will write only happiness unlimited.
If you have to write the destiny of your children – how will you write ?
Some people think god writes our destiny. He is our father. If he is writing our destiny – do you think he will write like this for his children?
If we cannot write bad for others – will god write like this?
We didn’t know why these bad things are happening with us. We blamed situations, people and sometimes god. We strongly believed that so and so is an hindrance to my happiness. We continued thinking in that way. So, we started getting angry towards them (because they are the reason for our pain). If someone else is not having such a problem – we feel jealous. We developed hatred etc.
All the things in my life whether good or bad is because of me. I am responsible for my life.
Because we are in the habit of pin pointing someone for the mistakes – we thought our problems were also because of someone else.
For all our actions there will be result.If the action is because of me ; then, I am responsible even for the results.
If the result is not so good ; do I blame someone or change my actions?
If we cannot blame situation, people or god – then, we say it is because of my bad luck or my bhagya is not good.
What is karma ? What is Bhagya / destiny?
My thoughts, feeling and action is the karma that I am performing now.
Bhagya is the result of my karma.
Suppose, I am thinking, feeling bad about you. After sometime, I will receive hurt from you. I am hurting myself 2 times – once while doing the karma and once while receiving the bhagya.
If we want good results – our thoughts, feelings and actions have to be good.
If I want to hear sweet words from others – I need to be sweet with my thoughts and feelings.
If I blame and criticise people. I am sending wrong vibrations and for sure the result will be bad.
All our karma gets accounted in our karmic account.
I am talking sweetly with you and my actions are also good. But, I am thinking bad about you – He / she is like this, like that etc.
What is this transaction? Good or bad ? Will it be debited or credited in our karmic account?
We didn’t have the knowledge about thinking. We paid attention to the talking and action. We thought – I am very nice with people and wondering why these wrong things are happening to me?
We posted all the transaction in the wrong side. If the debit transaction is credited and the credit transaction is debited ; the balance sheet will not tally.
That is why we wonder why wrong things are happening with us – even though we are very good?
I heard this story…………….
There was a lady who was attending the vedanta classes. Her 2 yrs old child left the body. She just collapsed and said – so much injustice with me. God is unkind etc.
The people in the class said – sister – you are attending the class and you know everything is based on our karma. She just shouted at everyone saying – I know, I have not done any wrong to anyone that I need to be punished like this.
The pain is very big. In pain, we cannot accept anything. We can only blame something or someone or wonder why is this happening to me?
If others are happy – we will feel – why only to me?
In pain we cannot accept that it is a return of our karma. We may not accept but it is the truth ; it is the reality.
In pain, we cannot accept any knowledge. That is why people say we need to read scriptures at an young age. So that we will be prepared to face the consequences. In pain no one can make us understand anything.
We need to accept the reality. This one child was not the only responsibility of the mother. She has her whole family to take care. She is transmitting her pain to everyone. She is creating wrong karmic account with all the people around and also with the child who left the body.
Today, you are wearing a blue shirt. I didn’t bring my purse ; so, I borrowed Rs.1000 /- from you. It is not that I didn’t want to return – somehow I didn’t meet you for the next one week.
After one week, when I met you – you were wearing a white shirt. Because you changed your shirt (blue to white) – does that mean I should not return the money.
Of course, I have to return it.
Before I return the money – I left my body. In the next life, you will some how take Rs. 1000/- from me. At that time, I will wonder – why this person made a loss of Rs. 1000/- for me.
We are walking in the road – suddenly, someone says something to us. Don’t bother why they said it to us. Just accept – we don’t know what we did to that person. We are getting it in return.
Everything that happens to us (good or bad) is the return of our karma. Nothing is accident – everything is the return of our arrows.
If the results are not good. What should we do?
Do we start worrying – my karmic account is bad – what can I do ? etc.
Past is PASSED. Accept that the result is because of our wrong karma and full stop.
Don’t wonder – why is it happening only to me?
Instead of giving the energy in wondering why it happened? Give all the energy in the present karma ( present thinking, feeling and action).
I murdered someone thinking that person gave me the pain. I washed the knife and cleaned my body which was soaked in blood. By cleaning the knife or purifying the body – will the sin be cleaned. No punishment for the knife or my body. Who will to be punished? Myself. What will be the entry in the karmic account?
I will get the return for my karma. No one has to bother about it. Everyone has to face the destiny based on the karma.
We need to take a dip in the Gyan Ganga to purify the soul. But, we take a dip in the ganges river and purify the body. Whatever we have to do inside – today we are doing it outside. Lets take the knowledge – only this can purify the soul.
I was driving and thinking about something. I drove past my house. Suddenly, I realised and took a U turn. If does not matter – how many kms I went wrong. Now, I have taken the right direction and I will reach home.
Don’t think about past karma? We shot the arrows and they will come back to us.
We need to be stable to receive it and accept it as our bhagya (whether good or bad). At the same time, we will do good karmas now in the present.
If we keep doing good karmas. Slowly slowly, the result will also be good because the result is a combination of past karma + present efforts.
Suppose, My balance sheet is full of liability – what should I do to tally it? I have to increase the assets.
If we are getting bad bhagya from someone – we need to offset the karmic account with lots and lots of love and peace.
Already the result is bad and we again continue to send more bad arrows. Imagine the future.
Do you know why people fear for the future?
If we are NOT doing good karma – the soul will fear for the future.
Do good karma and see how all your fears will vanish.
We need to settle the karmic account with people. Let them talk badly. We have sent such arrows – now we are receiving it. Receive it with stability and do not worry. In turn give brahmastra i.e send good wishes to them. Slowly slowly, the bhagya will change and they will start talking nice with us.
In the road, someone is shouting at someone badly. You don’t take the vibration – instead send some peace in the atmosphere. That is your duty. If possible also do the outside help.
We are born in a family because we have karmic account with those people. We are married to a person out of 650 crores people in the world because of the karmic connection. People also say the relationship of husband and wife will continue for 7 lives 🙂 :). If we need a change – we need to be stable and loving 🙂 :). Otherwise, the karmic account will continue. We need to be stable to put an end to the karmic account.
Why so and so person becomes the MIL – the person with whom we share the most bad karmic account becomes the MIL. If we still send wrong arrows – the MIL can come back as our DIL. Very much possible.
The law of karma is broken into law of attention (whereever attention goes energy flows), Law of attraction, Law of belief etc.
Never believe – I cannot do or I am like this or they are like this. These are blocking thoughts.
Always think – I can do ; I will change ; I am a soul etc.
Don’t concentrate on what you don’t have and worry why is it happening to you ? See what you have been blessed with – share that blessing with others. Do it and see the difference.
We will do good actions. That is the only concentration. Whatever we receive we will accept it as a return of karma and just proceed. Life will be fantastic. You will for sure experience miracles in your life.
Note :
- Our every thought word and action is the energy we create and radiate. This is our karma.
- Situations and people behaviour is the energy we receive. This our destiny.
- We experience the energy of our thoughts while creating them and they radiate.The other person who is receiving is also creating the same kind of thoughts for us – which we receive. So, we experience the feeling twice while giving and also while receiving.
- Karma begins at the level of thoughts.
- If we create negative thoughts but speak beautiful words and do good actions – we are still creating negative karma (energy).
- Karma is not the action. It is the intention behind the action i.e the thoughts.
- Knowledge of the law of karma empowers us to create right karma in the present. We take personal responsibility of situations coming to us. We do not blame anyone. It is a return of our earlier karma.
- We are not forgiving anyone ; we are forgiving ourself.
