Guest guest Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 So Says Sai You might say that the karma (result of past actions) of previous births has to be consumed in this birth and that no amount of Grace can save man from that. But I assure you, you need not suffer from karma like that. When a severe pain torments you, the Doctor gives you a morphine injection and you do not feel the pain, though it is there in the body. Grace is like the morphine, the pain is not felt, though you go through it! Grace takes away the malignity of the karma, which you have to undergo. You know there are dated drugs, which are declared in-effective after a certain date; well, the effect of karma is rendered null, though the account is there and has to be rendered. One need not fly away from hearth and home to cultivate affection towards Supreme. If the seed is planted far away from the parent tree, does it become any different? Boil it and then of course, it will not grow again and burden the world. Similarly, boil your instincts and impulses and scorch the sensory cravings that enslave you. That brings you nearer to God, wherever you may be.
