Karma

"Jab tak hai teri punya ki odh
Kar paap kamayi chahe lakh karod
Jis din punya honge tere vidaa
Aur udit hoga tera paap
Tulsi van ki laakdi
Jalat aap hi aap"


"For as long as your count of good deeds is higher
Commit a lakh/crore bad deeds if you like
But the day the count strikes off
And you begin to be accountable for your bad deeds
That day, (says Tulsidas) like a forest set on fire
You shall uncontrollably burn yourself down"


Actions have consequences. The universe responds to you, sooner or later. Sometimes you pay a price. Sometimes you reap the fruits. Depending on what you've done, what you're doing. Have you murdered someone? Ripped a woman off her chastity? Dishonoured your promise? Disrespected your parents? Or have you been righteous, honest, virtuous, faithful? Whatever you have been, be careful. Someone up there is watching. And when He starts accounting for what you have done, your life will begin to change dramatically.
