‘The soul is not polluted by the sinful or evil actions of the external being’, Is karma for external being only?Β βœ¨πŸŒ±βš–οΈπŸͺ·

Karma is an evolutionary mechanism, a system of learning through the experiences that follow our actions or rather the motives behind our actions. Thus we learn and grow. Since the true person growing within us is the soul, this learning extends over lives and need not necessarily be through visible or tangible outer effects. As we grow in consciousness, faith and surrender, then the learning is also subjective and quick. The karmic law of growth through learning gets modified and eventually is no more needed. It has served its purpose of awakening us from the state of deep tamasic sleep and the rajasic excitement. It is meant for the growth of our inner being only and has little to do with reward and punishment. That is a misreading of the karmic mechanism by our ignorant mind, nothing else. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

It is the mind that fantasises, and in the process, might hit…

This is because the vital is unsteady. Practice equanimity, apply reason to control the vital from jumping from one thing to another, above all, call Peace and Calm to fix this not so uncommon difficulty.
