The Science of Karma
Questioner: Therefore people will then continue creating
good and bad karmas and never be free.
Dadashri: Yes, the pulp of the mango is eaten and the
stone seed is thrown out.
Questioner: And on that site will sprout a new mango
tree.
Dadashri: There is no escape.
If you believe that God is the doer, then why do you also
believe that you are the ‘doer’? Then you too become a doer.
Humans are the only species that believe ‘I am the doer’.
Whenever one becomes a doer, there is a breakdown in
dependency on God. God says, “Since you are the ‘doer’, then
you and I are both free! Do what you want.” Then what use do
you have for God?
When one believes that he is the ‘doer’, he binds karma.
When one ceases to believe that he is the ‘doer’, his karma
effects will come to an end.
The Essence Of All Scriptures
That is why Akha Bhagat (Famous Saint) spoke these
words,
If you are Jiva (mortal), the doer is Hari (God).
If you are Shiva, (Shuddhatma-pure Soul) that is the truth.
It means that if you are a pure Soul, then you are correct.
And if you are a mortal living being, then the one above, God,
is the doer. The truth is that you are a pure Soul and that there
is no one up there by the name of God who is your superior.
So when the difference between Jiva and Shiva is gone, one
is ready to become the Parmatma (the Supreme Soul). When
people pray to God they are separating themselves from the
Lord. Here, after receiving Gnan (the knowledge of Self-
realization), the Jiva-Shiva difference is gone and the separation
is eliminated.
