Questioner: How can you give happiness to others when
you yourself are not happy?

before he gets on the wrong path.
Who does nature assist? Nature helps the heavy karmas
become heavier and the light karmas become lighter. The lighter
ones rise to a higher life form and the heavier ones sink to the
lower life forms. That is the law of nature. The one who has

time, whereas the hardcore thief never gets caught because his
karmas are heavy.

bound. Moreover, in places where no karmas are being
charged, they ask, “Why are we in this prison?” A place
