If we start asking some questions to ourselves like ,
why did i born only in this family? why not in a family of rich or why not in family of poor? why i am born physically challenged or so strong ?why i am fair? why i am black?
Is my birth in this family & condition, is matter of chance?
Some times in life we experience,in spite of Herculean effort we fail to get results and sometimes with not much effort we enjoy good results.Many times in life we experience, with no mistakes of us we have to face many problems.Does this happen just by chance? If we start thinking in more depth we start feeling that there is some law or some force which is governing all these happenings in our day to day life.
And what is that law?? Its nothing but law of karma(law of action and reaction).
Newtons third law as stated "For every action , there is a equal and opposite reaction",not only applies for science but also its true for our day to day action.
The reaction may be a bit late , but its bound to come back.
Bhagavan sri sathya saibaba say's every action will have reflection , reaction and resound.Every one has to face consequence of his action, whoever he may be.
So only our ancient texts say "Daiva preeti , papa bheti".Have fear of sin or bad actions.
At the time we perform action we may not feel what we are doing is wrong,because some time we perform action by external impulse,what we see or what we hear.And many a times we repent a lot later.
But law of karma is very strict.If a person unknowingly or knowingly touches fire he will get burnt, so also our actions done knowingly or accidently we are bound to face reaction good or bad.So only baba always suggest us to avoid bad thoughts in mind so that chances of doing wrong impulsive actions will be less.
I think law of karma is accepted by all religions in the world.Though they explain it in different way.In Hindu religion "Garuda Purana" explains different punishments for different bad actions.Islam and Christianity belives in judgement day.And many saints and sages tell same thing in simple way , as basavanna say' "Good Action is heaven , Bad action is hell".In hindi there is a saying "Jaisi karni , waisi bharni"(as is the action , so are the results).
Some times we may be wondering , many peoples who are strong enough financially and politically in society ,commit many wrong actions ,in spite of it they reap good results and even worse thing is they become more and more rich and strong.By seeing such things we may feel that no such law is there.But in fact these people will be enjoying good results of good karma they did long back in past , may be in past life.But there is no excuse for them for bad karma's they have been doing now.They will face the reaction in future may be far as in next incarnation.So only, Saibaba say's
"Present is product of past , and is also a seed for future".
Its not possible for anyone of us to escape from law of karma.Because its rule in game.If we have accepted to play game of life we should follow rules too.Say in cricket if a player is out, we wont say player to play again ,if it happens so there will be no fun in game.So also in our lives.
Law of karma is very tough.We dont know what's in our plate tomorrow.The life we enjoy , friends we trust and family we love today may show its cruel face tomorrow.
The muscle power,our beauty which we thing as our asset may diminish tomorrow.
Our source of income , our property what we think as our strength may turn away tomorrow.So we should make earnest attempt to do good karma's.Adopt good thoughts in mind so that we can have less chances of doing bad karma's.Inspite of odd's today we should try to adopt good values in life so that our future will be good.
Past is past its not in our hand , future no one knows what is going to happen.So only thing we have with us is present.So we should try to use it in right direction.
