行恶，不可能获得善报，而行善，也不会得到恶报。种瓜得瓜，种豆得豆。

不论我们以什么方式，不论我们觉知与否，我们都得承受我们的业报。

不具适当理由，什么都不会发生，不论它是如何的偶然或不可思议。根源深入地底，不是肉眼所能见。

奖赏或惩罚，神都不干涉。祂仅只反映，反响和反应！祂是永恒的，不受影响的见证者！自己的命运自己决定。行善，存善，你就得善报。作恶，存恶，你就得恶报。不要感谢神也不要埋怨神。要感谢你自己，埋怨你自己。

当然，哀伤来袭而痛苦抓住你不放时，主总不会精确地宣称那特别的体验是那一项罪恶的惩罚。祂让你自己根据一般情况推断出“每一个体验是一个教训而每一个损失是一个收获”的想法。

不论恶行是有意的或无意的，果报毕竟是无可避免的。这是业的本质。

你或许非常聪明和精灵，但你所有的聪明和精灵都不会使你逃过自己的业。

善行和善念的重量会埋葬恶行与恶念的种子。善恶之念和冲动情绪有如心念里的种子。如果埋在地底太深，种子就会腐烂而毁坏。善念和善行把恶的种子埋得那么深致使恶种子腐朽和毁坏而不再发芽滋长。

业的果报可以用业来洗掉，就如一根刺可以用另一根刺把它挑出来一样。

你也许会说，过去世的业必须在今世承受而神恩是解救不了的。显然，有人教会你作如是想。但我向你保证，你不必受到这样的业的煎熬。在剧痛时，医生给你打吗啡针，使你不感到痛，虽然痛还在体内。神恩就像是吗啡；你承受痛但你不觉得痛！。。。或者，主能使一个人完全避开果报，如我为一个虔诚者所做的那样；在好几个月前的导师节那一周内，那个虔诚者因心脏病突发而中风，我承受了他的疾病。

如果你渴望利益，你也得准备接受损失。

任何人都不能戒绝行动。行动是我们生存的根基。就是为了行动，我们才得此身。一个人必须透过行动来圣化他的生命及以正确行动来净化他的时间，那是他生命的需要。行动之水也流过智（Jnana若那或识），最后引领我们达到证悟的最高境界。

执行业而不涉及业是我们必须学的东西。业必须完成，因为它是人之本质的一部分，不受任何外在的强迫。。。所以，为了从中获利而做的业会累积许多束缚一个人的果报；它像一个雪球，越滚越大。然而，不想到成果而做的业持续减少乃至于解除你所有果报。

业律给你端出希望：什么业带来什么果。不要再把自己系于追求业的成果。把业奉献于神的足下。让它荣耀祂，让它助长祂的光辉。不要在乎努力的成功或失败；那么，死亡就不能成为束缚你的绳套了。死亡会以一个解放者出现而不是一个监狱看守者。

以戏剧演员的身份去执行一切的业，把你本来的身份分开，而不要太过眷恋或执着于你所扮演的角色。记得整个事件仅是一出戏而主已给你分配了一个角色。把你的角色演好：一切义务即圆满结束。

业既可救人亦可杀人。它就像咬物的猫：它咬起小猫以转移到安全之处；它咬死老鼠以充饥。成为小猫而业就像慈祥的母亲一样救护你。成为老鼠而你就气数已尽。

业在执行中所带来的喜悦远胜于其成果所带来的喜悦。朝圣之旅往往比朝圣者从朝圣的庙宇中所得到的实际体验更为怡悦。

只有透过业，虔诚才更上一层楼。业洗涤心念而使心念做好准备去接受识（Jnana音译若那）

透过业，超脱始有成效。。。没有业，进展极为困难。

By doing a bad act, you cannot expect to get a good result, and if you do a good deed, you cannot get a bad reaction from it. The kind of seeds you sow will determine the nature of the crop they will yield.

We are repaid for our deeds in some way or the other, whether we know it or not, and in the same coin.

Nothing ever happens without proper reason, however accidental or mysterious it might appear. The roots go deep and are out of sight.

God is not involved in either rewards or punishment. He only reflects, resounds, and reacts! He is the Eternal Unaffected Witness! You decide your own fate. Do good, be good, you get good in return; be bad, do bad deeds, you reap bad results. Do not thank or blame God. Thank yourself, blame yourself!

Of course, when grief overtakes you and pain has you in its grip, the Lord does not always announce the exact sin for which that particular experience is the punishment. You are left to deduce in a general way that every experience is a lesson and every loss is a gain.

Whether we do bad work knowingly or unknowingly, the consequences are inevitable. This is the nature of karma.

You may be very intelligent and clever. All your intelligence and cleverness will not enable you to get over your own karma.

The weight of good acts and thoughts will bury the seeds of bad actions and thoughts. Both good and bad thoughts and impulses are like seeds in the mind. If buried too deeply in the earth, seeds rot and waste away. Good thoughts and deeds bury bad seeds so deeply that they rot and pass away and are no longer ready to spring forth.

The consequence of karma can be wiped out through karma, as a thorn which can be removed only by means of another.

You might say that the karma of previous births has to be consumed in this birth and that no amount of grace can save you from that. Evidently, someone has taught you to believe so. But I assure you, you need not suffer from karma like that. When a severe pain torments you, the doctor gives you a morphine injection and you do not feel the pain, thought it is still there in the body. Grace is like the morphine; the pain is not felt, though you go through it!...Or the Lord can save a man completely from the consequences, as was done by me for the bhakta whose paralytic stroke and heart attacks I took over some months ago in the Gurupournima week.

If you crave the profit, you will have to be prepared to accept the loss also.

It is not possible for anyone to abstain from action. Action is the basis for our existence. This body has been given to us for the sake of action. It is the need of man’s life that he must sanctify it through action and purify his time by right action. This stream of action flows through jnana (wisdom) also and ultimately leads us to the highest stages of realization.

The art of engaging in karma without getting involved in karma is the thing that has to be learned. Karma has to be done because it is part of one’s nature, not out of any external compulsion…So, too, karma done for the profit arising therefrom accumulates consequences which bind a man; it increases in size like a snowball. But karma done without any thought of the fruit therefrom keeps on diminishing and leaves you free from all consequence.

The law of karma holds out hope for you: as the karma, so the consequence. Do not bind yourself further by seeking the fruit of karma. Offer the karma at the feet of God. Let it glorify him, let it further his splendor. Be unconcerned with the success or failure of the endeavor; then death can have no noose to bind you with. Death will come as a liberator, not a jailor.

Do all karma as actors in a play, keeping your identity separate and not attaching yourself too much to your role. Remember that the whole thing is just a play and the Lord has assigned you a part. Act your part well: there all your duty ends.

Karma can save as well as kill. It is like the cat that bites: it bites the kitten in order to carry it in its mouth to a place of safety; it bites the rat in order to kill and eat. Become the kitten and karma will rescue you like a loving mother. Become a rat and you are lost.

There is more joy in the doing of karma than in the fruit it may give. The pilgrimage is often more pleasurable than the actual experience of the temple to which the pilgrim went.

It is only through karma that devotion can be deepened. Karma cleanses the mind and makes it fit for jnana.

Only through karma can liberation be effected…Without karma, progress is very difficult.
