Karma His Way

Whatever we do, whatever we invest in or whatever we spend nothing is unnoticed. He keeps account of everything, every moment and every thought that touches us or that takes shape out of us or that manifests in our work because the Creator Himself being the banker maintains our logbook with absolute precision. Ever wondered where you spent the sum that you had earned over the last decade? You might have lost or forgotten the count but it is recorded somewhere. The same is true with this life too. The way I treated the housekeeping boy who spilled soup on the desk while cleaning or what I was thinking while saying no to the guy who was asking for money without repaying the previous sum, all has been recorded. When I realized this I started thinking why not use His account balance for the purpose He has intended to. I need to utilize this lifetime for the purpose He has proclaimed to be His directed one as told in the SriGita, or the Bible or the Quran. Atheist read him otherwise, finding follies and inaccuracies in His various manifestations. (See the ‘religious fights’, ‘crusades’, ‘jihads’ or ‘dharmayuddha’ all in His name!). But He is the one altogether.

Now I have little idea of His plans for me and I also have idea of my previous births though it is limited to a few births but even though I feel relieved with the journey so far because of this privileged state. I have no idea or memory of my ant-warm lives but I feel empathy for the same. Although at times I hurt them or I did have killed them but I do wish for their exponential, out of turn promotions though I do wonder whether it will serve the purpose for them. I do wonder what would be the fate of the person who attacked me. Inferring the no interference from His side and leaving it all to the Karma principles what shape his life would take. Karma karma karma. Why don’t we believe in its principles. Why don't we do something that is humane. Why do we not aspire for perfection in our work. Why doing something carelessly. If this is what will shape us then why not we shape what we can and when we can. Doesn’t the optimistic opportunities that it carries make the karma enjoyable activity forever. Kartavya afterall is karma than why not enjoy it why not do it with perfection. Now I willingly acknowledge the conclusion of 'Do everything and love Him'. When manifested in our work, our duties this love has the ability to liberate us, to free us from the bondages.
Love,
Preyash.
