Regardless of what we do, our karma has no hold on us

Contrary to popular misconception, karma has nothing to do with punishment and reward. It exists as part of our holographic universe’s binary or dualistic operating system only to teach us responsibility for our creations-and all things we experience are our creations.

As long as karma exists, the world changes. There will always be karma to be taken care of.

Still others commit all sorts of evil deeds, claiming karma doesn’t exist. They erroneously maintain that since everything is empty, committing evil isn’t wrong. Such persons fall into a hell of endless darkness with no hope of release. Those who are wise hold no such conception.

No one can escape karma. Two events which may, at first, seem disconnected can be karmically connected. After all, karma works on a spiritual level which may manifest itself physically in a myriad of seemingly unrelated ways.

Whatever we do lays a seed in our deepest consciousness, and one day that seed will grow.

In every conversation I’ve had – with housewives in Mumbai, with middle-class people, upper-class, in the slums – everyone says there is an underlying consciousness of karma. That people believe in karma – that what you’re putting out is going to come back. If I do something to you, the energy of it is going to come back to me in the future.

I try to live with the idea that karma is a very real thing. So I put out what I want to get back.

Everyone gets dumped and everyone gets hurt and there’s karma to love in regards to what you’ve done to other people.

We don’t find love, love finds us. What you put out into the universe will find its way back to you.

The love you send into the world, you will find, is the love that returns to you.

You must acknowledge and experience this part of the universe. Karma is intricate, too vast. You would, with your limited human senses, consider it too unfair. But you have tools to really, truly love. Loving the children is very important. But love everyone as you would love your children.

When you plant a seed of love, it is you that blossoms.

Love your neighbor, even the ones who do not show you the same courtesy.

According to the karma of past actions, one’s destiny unfolds, even though everyone wants to be so lucky.

Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness. How do you know this is the experience you need? Because this is the experience you are having at the moment.

Sooner or later in life, we will all take our own turn being in the position we once had someone else in.

Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live.

The life I touch for good or ill will touch another life, and that in turn another, until who knows where the trembling stops or in what far place my touch will be felt.

When a bird is alive, it eats ants. When the bird is dead, ants eat the bird. Time and circumstances can change at any time. Don’t devalue or hurt anyone in life. You may be powerful today. But remember, time is more powerful then you. One tree makes a million match sticks. But when the time comes, only one match stick is needed to burn a million trees. So, be good and do good.

But life inevitably throws us curve balls, unexpected circumstances that remind us to expect the unexpected. I’ve come to understand these curve balls are the beautiful unfolding of both karma and current.

I try to be a good daughter, as I believe in karma and feel that how you are with your parents is directly proportionate to what you receive in your life. I am a big oneness follower, and our gurus have told us that if you want to achieve external happiness, you need to be happy internally. And your inner circle is your family.

There is a wonderful mythical law of nature that the three things we crave most in life

It is a rule of life that we eventually become victims of the evil we do to others.

The best revenge is to show them that your life is getting better after they’re gone.

Belief in karma ought to make the life pure, strong, serene, and glad. Only our own deeds can hinder us; only our own will can fetter us. Once let men recognize this truth, and the hour of their liberation has struck. Nature cannot enslave the soul that by wisdom has gained power and uses both in love.

Whatever you give to life, it gives you back. Do not hate anybody. The hatred which comes out from you will someday come back to you. Love others. And love will comeback to you.
