Law of Karma is a very important law that we need to understand clearly. What is it and how it works in our daily life.
Many complain, why this is happening to me? What did I do to deserve what I am going through? Why I am suffering and nothing good is happening to me? Why is God being unfair and cruel to me? Is God a loving person? Etc etc etc. I have heard these and other similar words from people of all walks of life and all ages. Many times what ever that the suffering that we go through which we the complain is, is our the karma.
First understanding is that the Law of karma is law of action - reaction. Every action that we put into the world, either physically or mentally or emotionally comes back to us in a form of reaction, that we experience in our life. It is like planting a seed, the seed will take time and grow slowly until it become a matured tree where it starts to fruit and the fruit are the results or the reaction that we experience in our life.
The world is a great platform created by God so that the law of karma can take place and been implemented. The activities are the experiences that every single soul goes through. The experiences could be pain, suffering, agony, joy, happiness or something else.
We must understand in a deeper level that every single experiences that we go through that seems to be very bad that we complain all the time, or good experiences that we never talk about it, are only experiences. They are neither good or bad . They are our great teacher, to teach us what to do or what not to do and help us to move on to the next level of progression. The experiences helps us to study and learn. The experiences also " purifies" us and mature gradually.
It is very easy to blame others for what that is happening to us. It is also easy for us to criticize the people around us, the environment , the leaders, the country for what is happening to us. That shows your foolishness. That shows your weakness too. Be courageous enough to accept what you are going through as your own creation and face it gracefully and learn from it. That shows your strength.
In conclusion, stop complain and blaming others for whatever that you are going through in your life and accept and face it gracefully for God is the life of your life and He is there for you to uplift and help your to move forward.
We will talk about how to reduce our karma, precautions and types of karma in our upcoming articles.
