people praise him for his generosity, which in fact was his discharge karma. What did he charge? He has charged karma by saying that he would not have given even five rupees! On a subtle level he charges exactly the opposite, so that in his next life he will not be able to give even five rupees. A poor man, donates five rupees to the same charity and says that if he had five lakh rupees, he would give it all. Because he gives the money heartily, in his next life he will be able to donate five lakh rupees. So, whatever you see externally, is all the fruit of actions, but on a very subtle level the seeds being sown cannot be discerned. Only if you have inward vision (antarmukh drashti), can you see this. Now, is it necessary to spoil one’s intent and emotions after such an understanding?

The karmas that one binds, such as β€˜to eat, drink and be merry, are called sanchit karmas, or accumulated karmas. Such karmas are stockpiled at a subtle level and when they are about to ripen and give fruits, a person is inspired to eat unhealthy food and when he is done eating it is called prarabdha karma (fate). This in turn gives a final result, which is the effect of effect so that he may end up having dysentery and become sick. That is kriyamana (exhausted resultant) karma.

Param Pujya Dadashri shows us that Vyavasthit Shakti includes the principles of karma. Karma is only a small fraction of Vyavasthit, it doesn’t include the total process. Karma belongs to Vyavasthit but Vyavasthit does not belong to karma. Karmas are carried on in a subtle form as seeds from the past life. However, it does not end there. When the karma starts producing fruits, (i.e., trees grow from the seeds) so many circumstances are required. The seed becomes a mango tree and one can receive mangoes. This process involves many other evidences such as, soil, water, sunshine, fertilizer, heat and time. Dadashri has explained beautifully, that these are the fruits of karma. The seeds of karma are active at the very subtle level.

Many people ask how the first karma was bound. Did the body come before the karma? Did the chicken come before egg? It is all the same. In reality, there is no such thing as the first karma in the world. Karma and Atma have existed throughout time without a beginning or an end. Karmas are charged atoms. The Atma is the living or conscious tattva (element). Both tattvas (atma and matter) are always separate. Atattva is an eternal element. How can there be a beginning to that which is eternal? All karmas are charged because of the union of the living ( chetan) and non-living (jada). It is the seed karma (cause or charge karma), which gives the fruit of karma (effect or discharge karma) in the next life. Karmas produce circumstances that by nature are temporary. Union is followed by separation. Circumstances come and go, giving rise to various stages of existence and events. When the wrong belief, β€œI am this and this is mine,” arises it results in the visible and tangible worldly life. If one understands this mystery then there is only the Shuddhatma (Pure Soul) and sanyog (circumstance). Owing to the lack of such understanding we use the gross language of prarabdha and call it fortune, fate, or destiny, etc. The science however tells us this much, that if we remain separate from the evidences, then we can stay in the Atma and only then, karma does not exist.

How does one bind karmas? Karmas are bound by the subtle belief of doership in any action.

What is doership bhaav? When someone else does the karma and one believes that β€œI am doing it” is called doership-karta bhaav.
