Hare Krsna!

I have one question: recently on one sadhu's lecture I

heard that our karma determines happiness and

distress. If I understood correctly, it is not that

particular events are determined, rather feelings of

happiness and distress. So if we did something wrong

to someone, we have to experience the same amount of

distress that we caused, not necessarily the same

action (if we stole something, it doesn't mean that we

will be robbed, although the same event most probably

will correspond the best for the same amount of

distress). Can you kindly put some more light on this?

And also some scriptural references would be greatly

appreciated. Thank you very much.

Your servant

Nina

HariboL!

 

just a quick and brief reply. According to Prahlad

maharaj, the material happiness and distress come

according to our past deeds/karma.. so he tells us not

even to endeavour for them, but just face wat comes

with steadiness.

 

BUT he says that spiritual part is wat we shud

endeavour for as its not based on past deeds and its

based on our free-will!

 

but my problem is, how to distinguish between material

and spiritual activities clearly.!
