Karma_Chapter_Corrected

Karma, meaning action, is understood as the Law of Action and Re-creation, where one's deeds directly influence their experiences in life. It governs everything from birth to death, suggesting that our past actions determine our current circumstances and future outcomes. While many recognize the significance of Karma, few grasp its deeper implications or how to transcend it for spiritual liberation.

WHAT IS KARMA?

The word Karma means action. But the world knows Karma more as law - the Law of Action and Re-creation. It is the Law of the
Boomerang - What goes around, comes around. It is based on the principle - As you sow, so shall you reap. The Law is very simple:
What you give is what you will get. Whatever you do, will come back to you. While the Law seems very simple, it is actually so
complicated that nobody can decode the mystery of Karma in its entirety. Who created this Law? How does it unfold for 8 billion
people around the globe? How does it control the reaction of every action? The Law of Karma continues to baffle humanity, and
while we have no option but to accept it, not many of us understand how it actually works.

We know that the fruit on a tree appears not by luck. It depends on the seed that we planted. That is why we don't find apples
growing on mango trees. Just as fruits on trees depend on the seeds, whatever is happening in our life depends on our deeds. But
how does this happen? Who controls this? To understand Karma, one must go on a quest to realize the connection between life and
Karma. One must pause and ponder on the magic of creation. One must understand the presence of the several Universal Laws that
govern our planet. What causes day and night? What causes the earth to rotate on its axis automatically, day after day, without any
intervention or interruption? What causes seasons to unfold so beautifully? Why do dogs not give birth to cats? Everything that is
happening in our world is governed by a law that creates order on earth. Even our birth and death are controlled by a Universal Law
- the Law of Karma. Where we were born, when we were born, and how we were born, was not our choice. But it is our own Karma,
our past actions that decided our birth. Death is certain. Every 'body' will die. But who decides when we will die? Again, it is Karma.
Not just birth and death, everything that is unfolding in our life is happening because of Karma, our past actions.

Karma is life and everything that unfolds in life. Those who realize the truth about Karma make an intelligent choice to choose their
actions. They realize that their destiny is in their hands. They don't blame God or luck for their miseries. They live their life doing
good Karma, knowing that Karma controls everything. While many people around the world today accept the Law of Karma, and
while the word 'Karma,' which actually means action, has become synonymous, few among us are fortunate to go beyond the
common understanding of Karma.

It is a rare minority that not only understands that creating good Karma will ensure a good life ahead, but also realizes the
connection between Karma and rebirth. They decode the mystery of how Karma will control their next journey on earth. But hardly
anybody realizes the truth of how to transcend Karma, and how to be liberated from the cycle of death and rebirth and be united with
the Divine. This is our ultimate goal - to realize we are the Divine Soul and to be free from all Karma.

Karma means action, but in fact, it's a Law...

It settles every Deed; it works without a Flaw.
