Part 1
Life is underlined by
activity. Nature’s qualities (Gunas) make man act. None in this life can stop
activity even for a moment. It is the stomach and then the senses that keep man
in perpetual bondage of action. Every action has a corresponding reaction,
i.e., effect. This effect is referred to as Karma. By his thoughts and actions,
man is generating Karma every moment of his life; and he will continue to do
so, long he remains slave of Nature.
Against the backdrop of
Time, the lifespan of man is too short for this Karma to mature and fructify
during the present life. Nevertheless, the chain action of cause and effect is
set to work. In obedience to the Universal Law, these actions have to have
corresponding reactions (effects) precisely of equal force and nature. The
process does not cease with death; for, death is only an inconsequential
neutral point in the evolution of man. As a result, the Karma naturally and
inevitably works its way out in the next phase of evolution, viz., next birth.
Thus, man, by his present actions, causes or draws the blueprint of events for
his next lives.
It necessarily follows
that events experienced at present are but effects (Karma) of actions of
previous lives. Such Karma accumulated over previous lives brought forward
constitutes Sanchita Karma the backlog. The operative portion out of it which
is scheduled to mature and confer results during this life is classified as
Prarabdha Karma.
Man can harmonies his
actions with his thoughts by controlling his sense-organs and developing the
power of his mind. Once he is able to place his body in perfect obedience to
his will he will be able to regulate his Karma and gradually disengage himself
from the chain of cause-effect. While an action itself (cause) can, thus, be
controlled, directed or stopped by will-power, the effect of an action already
done is beyond the influence of any other force. Man is the master of the
situation upto the point of action; thereafter it is taken over by the working
of the Universal law.
Fate or Parabdha Karma is
simply the effect of some past actions. Consequently it is immune to influences
of other forces which makes it inevitable and irrevocable. Its results will be
good, bad and indifferent depending entirely on the nature of the action, the
effect of which has now matured and is giving fruits. Fate only dispenses
results and not cause results. For this abstract energy, in order to transform
itself into events in terms of worldly matters, other contributory factors such
as environment and planetary influences, need to be congenial. This condition
is effectively compiled with by the combined forces of Law of Evolution and Law
of Karma. The environment, position in the cosmos, time of birth and quantum of
Karma scheduled to be expended are all coordinated in such a way that they rove
complimentary to one another. It is done with clockwork precision.
An event such as birth is,
therefore, not a simple outcome of union of man and women. It is computed and
programmed by the working of the highly complex universal laws. A child does
not come into existence out of nowhere. It has a traceable past, not only of
previous lives but of humanity and plant life, as recognized by the theory of
Evolution of Man.
