The soldier doesn't get the reation if he was simply folowing orders from his superiors. The King or (Prime Minister) doesn't get the karma if he was following the orders of the Manu Samhita. That is the law of karma, it doesn't show any free will. It is BECAUSE these activities are under material nature that Manu Samhita governs them. This scenario doesn't support your statement which follows, at least I cannot see the connection - > NO IT`S NOT "only your bad karma"! There is also the free will to act, from >the side of those who are cousing you harm and trouble, emotionally or > physicaly. > Karma implys a equal reaktion which may come in due course of time, but there > is a difference if someone get,s shot by a policemen or a soldier in war, or > a criminal who came to rob his properties. If you want to kill legally, you will be given the body of someone inclined towards soldiering, and if you desire to murder, you will be given a body inclined towards murderer. Both are equally free to question their spiritual values, although sastra says it is easier for the more pious prisioner, the soldier.
