Intervention of the Lord

[Guest guest]

Generally the law of karma is that one is awarded the result of one's own

actions, but in special cases, by the will of the Lord, such resultant

actions are changed also. But this change can be affected by the will of the

Lord only, and no other. Therefore, the example of the player cited in this

verse is quite appropriate, for the Supreme Will is absolutely free to do

whatever He likes, and because He is all-perfect, there is no mistake in any

of His actions or reactions. These changes of resultant actions are

especially rendered by the Lord when a **pure devotee** is involved. It is

assured in the Bhagavad-gita (9.30-31) that the Lord saves a **pure devotee

** who has surrendered unto Him without reservation from all sorts of

reactions of sins, and there is no doubt about this. There are hundreds of

examples of reactions changed by the Lord in the history of the world. If

the Lord is able to change the reactions of one's past deeds, then certainly

He is not Himself bound by any action or reaction of His own deeds. He is

perfect and transcendental to all laws.
