"It Is By One's Own Actions That One Has To Wander In The Worldly Life..."





                         Miracles of Actions (Karma Na Chamatkara)


Shrimadji said...


"I am telling you some of the common anomalies and different states in human life on which if you reflect, your faith in the existence of future births or rebirth will well develop.


One person sleeps on a beautiful cot having a flowerbed on it while the other does not get even a tattered quilt as his bed. 


One keeps himself always satisfied with various dainty dinners while the other cannot get for his dinner even a piece of bread. 


One enjoys unlimited wealth, the other begs for a penny from door to door. 


One by his sweet sayings attracts the minds of many hearers, the other moves like a dumb. 


One moves about dressed in beautiful clothes with ornaments on his body, the other does not even get a torn cloth to cover himself from extreme cold in winter. 


One person is a sick man while the other person is very strong bodied and healthy. 


One is very intelligent while the other is a mere dull. 


One has beautiful attractive eyes while the other is quite blind. 


One is lame and the other is short of legs. 


One is enjoying good fame and the other suffers from defamation. 


One commands lakhs of people and servants while the other suffers insults from all in his contact. 


Seeing one person we feel joyous, seeing another person we feel a vomiting sensation. 


One has all his senses in good order while the other has lost some of them. 


One has no idea of poverty of poor people while other has no end of his own sufferings.


One died while being conceived, one died soon after birth, one was born dead, one dies at a ripe age of hundred years.


"No two persons have exactly identical faces. 


Differences of language and living conditions are observed in the world. 


A fool as a king on a royal throne is praised and saluted by all, and powerfully learned men suffer strokes of misfortune.


Thus you see anomalies of various kinds in whole world. 


Have you ever thought about these anomalies? 


I have described yet if you have ever thought about them, please tell what should be the reason behind all such anomalies? 


It is only due to good or bad actions of the soul or self.


It is by one's own actions that one has to wander in the worldly life at large. 


One not believing in rebirths, cannot explain the reasons of these anomalies. 


Again how can such a person even think that there is no rebirth? 


If he thinks this way, he will also have to agree with our view i.e. belief in births and rebirths."
