It is karma that brings joy or sorrow, Willing or unwilling, we live by our karma.



"It is karma that brings joy or sorrow, Willing or unwilling, we live by our karma. Observe the potter shaping his pots: Some break on the wheel, Some crack after removal from the wheel. Some spoil when wet, some when dry. Some burst while being fired, Some after removal from the kiln, Some shatter in use.. So some of us die in the womb. Some immediately after birth, Some a fortnight later, some a month. Some in youth, some in middle age, some in old. Their karma determines it all. This is the way of the world is! So what is the point of grieving? Swimmers dive, then emerge from the water. So creatures sink into and emerge from the stream of life!" ~ The Mahabharata of Vyasa. Yes, We make our own destiny. Out of desires to enjoy this world in various ways, we create our own good or bad karma. We can attain freedom from karma only when we give up acting according to our material desires and instead act to serve the One Supreme. When we are purified of all material desires and repose all our thoughts, words, and actions in loving service to Lord, then only can we transcend the law of karma! Surrender and be one with Shiva! Only then you can find peace!! Shivoham Shivoham!!!
Namaste ~ Shubh Prabhat ~ May Blessings of Shiva be upon everyone !!
