Is Karma Bigger or Luck?

by SADHGURU

Why is it that some individuals have so much in their lives without accomplishing anything meaningful, while others struggle to make ends meet while putting in long hours?

What is more essential to a human being: Karma or Luck?

You have no control of what comes to you but you have control of what you do with what comes to you.

2 Ways How You Can Erase Your Past Karma

by Dr. Pillai

One percent of the people have all the wealth in the world, and they are not willing to part with it although they know that they have too much money.

Bill Gates has been working hard, Warren Buffet has been working hard, but they are not able to do anything.

Even if they are able to give, say 50% of their wealth, then there won’t be any poverty in this world and then we will create Golden Age.

But why are they not responding to it is because the problem is more a matter of neurology? That’s why we have neurology of compassion too.

You can change all these things instantaneously.

There was this person called J Krishnamurti, he was not very well known but he was known to all the intellectuals. Most of the intellectuals knew what he was trying to do.

He said “You can change everything immediately.” I will talk about it later on when I talk about time. Don’t wait for anything. It can all be done.

All that you need to do is to stop now. You can do everything now. So, karma can be stopped.

You can begin to live the life immediately and I will come to that. I just don’t want to miss explaining to you the models that I intended to talk about in terms of handling your karma.

The first model is: A matter of neurology and you can control it.

The second model is devotion. This is the most powerful one. Through devotion and love, you can put an end to your karma. Bhakti, it’s called.

Through bhakti devotion to a God or a Messiah, even the Buddha said “Compassion is everything.” Because his religion was based on compassion.

Jesus said “Love me, love the one whom God had sent, and if you do practice love,
everything will be taken care of.”

In Saivism, it’s not that God is love, but love is God. Love itself is God. If you feel love towards every human, then you will see an instantaneous change.

But the problem is we are so self absorbed. We are so self absorbed and we don’t care about other people.

That is how you are going to overflow with love, and then emanate love, and then pass on this love to other people.

Who is the architect of our present and future?

Each person is the cause of their own fortune, good or bad. Each is a builder, an architect.

Fate, destiny, predetermination, the will of the Divine — every one of these explanations is toppled by the principle of karma (consequences of past actions).

The Divine and people can be reconciled and affiliated only on the basis of this principle of karma.

When one realises that He has no share in causing one’s suffering, that each one their self is the sole cause, that no blame attaches to any other person, and that one is free to shape one’s future.

Then one approaches Him with a firmer step and a clearer mind.

If a person is afflicted by misfortune now, it is assuredly the result of their previous acts.

Accordingly, one has to believe that happiness and good fortune also lie in one’s own hands. If one decides, happiness and good fortune can be gained.

- Sathya Sai Vahini, Ch 13.

If you act righteously in the present, your future will be good and ennobling.

Let us not become tired of doing good; for if we do not give up, the time will come when we will reap the harvest.

How can divine grace protect us from the consequences of our actions, which are supposed to be inevitable?

Why should one pray, meditate, contemplate on the Divine or engage in good actions when one is anyway bound to face the consequences of one’s actions?

You may not be able to see the transformation that comes within you by your good actions and prayer. You may not even be able to visualise it with your mind.

Yet, this transformation in you is sure to attract His grace.

Take the example of a bottle of pills. You may note the date of expiration mentioned on the bottle as the year 1994. You may find the bottle and its contents intact even in 1999. But this does not mean that the pills will be effective if used later. The pills may be there, but they lose their power after the date of expiry.

Likewise, the consequences of one’s actions are inevitable, be they good or bad but divine grace will let their effects lapse.

- Divine Discourse, Sep 03, 1999.

You will be free from the shackles of karma once you attain divine grace.
