The Science of Karma
Mother-in-Law: Daughter-in-Law - Both
Faultless
Questioner: I have a lot of conflicts with my mother-in-
law, how can I be free from them?
Dadashri: You should become free from each and every
karma. Each time your mother-in-law gives you trouble, you
should find freedom from that karma. What should you do for
that? You should think of her as being faultless. Ask yourself
why she would be at fault. Tell yourself that it is because of
your own karmas that you have encountered her. She is merely
instrumental in giving your effect to you. This is how you will
achieve freedom from karma. On the other hand, if you look at
her faults, you will increase your own karma. When you see
fault in others, you bind karmas (cause) and when you look at
your own faults, the karmas leave.
We should live our life in a way that does not bind any
karma. You should remain detached from this world. It is
because of the karmas we have bound that we encounter the
people we do in this life. Who are all these people in our
family? We have bound a karmic account with them, which is
why they are around us. Even if you were to decide that you
do not want to speak with them, you would be compelled to
speak anyway. This is all a result of vengeance created in your
previous life.
Questioner: That is all you see everywhere.
Dadashri: That is why I am telling you to move away
from all that and come to me (The Gnani Purush and His Gnan).
I will give you whatever I have experienced, so that you too will
become free. There is no freedom otherwise.
I do not place blame on anyone, but I do make a note
of what this world is about. I have seen the world from all
aspects and in every way possible. When we see faults in others,
