"O intelligent man, spend your life always in the knowing of the supreme bliss, enjoying the whole of your Prarabdha without making any complaint of it. ~ Nada Bindu Upanishad.
Prarabdha Karma is a past debt which is responsible for our present suffering. Prarabdha Karma is the part of sanchita karma, a collection of past karmas, which are ready to be experienced through the body in this present life. It is ripe for reaping. It cannot be avoided or changed. It is only exhausted by being experienced. You pay your past debts. Prarabdha karma is that which has begun and is actually bearing fruit. Each lifetime, a certain portion of the sanchita karma, most suited for the spiritual evolution at the time, is chosen to be worked out, during the course of the lifetime. Subsequently this Prarabdha Karma creates circumstances which we are destined to experience in our present lifetime, they also place certain limitations via our physical family, body or life circumstances we are born into, as charted in our birth chart or horoscope, collectively known as fate or destiny.
According to many sages and philosophers, Prarabdha karma end only after we have but experienced their consequences.
"If the agent, upon whom the Karma depends, namely the ego, which has come into existence between the body and the Self, merges in its source and loses its form, how can the Karma, which depends upon it, survive? When there is no I there is no karma!" ~ Ramana Maharishi.
"Through divine grace, one can go beyond the influence of past actions." ~ Says Sage Vasistha when Lord Rama asks him about the way to transcend the binding effects of past karmas.
"Setting aside all meritorious deeds, just surrender completely to My will, with firm faith and loving contemplation. I shall liberate you from all sins." Bhagawat Geeta.
