કર્મથી જ કર્મનું બાણ!

કર્મને કર્મની સાંઠગાંઠ!

વળતર મળે જ વળતું, જાણ.

સ્વભાવ કર્મનો મૂકે પરિણામ.

વળે કર્મથી જ કર્મનું બાણ!

અહીં જ બ્રહ્માંડમાં ફરે ચક્રાકાર

બોલતું તીર છોડે જાણ બહાર!

ન દાન ન ધર્મ ન ક્રિયા-કાંડ

ભૂસી શકે છોડેલાં કર્મ નિશાન.

અહીં આજ ધામમાં થતો હિસાબ

દર કર્મનું ચૂકવણુ ઊતારે ઉધાર.

સ્વચ્છ ઇરાદો, અર્પણ બને બચાવ

નથી બીજો કોઈ સુરક્ષિત ઉપાય.

કર્તવ્ય ને પ્રયત્ન - ભૂમિકા આધાર,

કર્મ કર મનુષ્ય! ધરી સત્વ પ્રભાવ.

'મોરલી' નમન હરિહર સંધાન...

નિરંતર તવ રહો સદા સંગાથ...

જય હો પ્રભુ...

સાદર...

Karma is nothing but the will of the Spirit in action, consequence nothing but the creation of will. What is in the will-power of being, expresses itself in karma and consequence. When the will is limited in mind, karma appears as a bondage and a limitation, consequence as a reaction or an imposition. But when the will of the being is infinite in the spirit, karma and consequence become instead the joy of the creative spirit, the construction of the eternal mechanist, the word and drama of the eternal poet, the harmony of the eternal musician, the play of the eternal child.

* The Supramental Manifestation: Karma, Will and Consequence

When one does not repeat one’s past mistakes, the divine power, the power of the divine Grace, abolishes their consequences – their karma – in the being. But as long as mistakes are repeated nothing can be abolished, because one re-creates them at every minute. When a person has made a serious error, say, a serious mistake (it can be serious or not, but we are concerned primarily with the serious ones), such mistakes have their consequences in life, a karma which has to be exhausted. The divine Grace, if you call upon it, has the power to abolish that karma, to cut short the consequences – but the Grace can only do this when you,

within yourself, don’t begin all over again, when the mistake committed is not renewed. The past can be completely purified and abolished, on condition that one does not keep making it into a perpetual present.  The past can be cleansed to the point where it has no effect of any kind on the future, but only on condition that you stop the wrong vibration in yourself, that you don’t reproduce the same vibration indefinitely.

Consciousness in work have to come by degrees, you must not expect to have it all at once; nobody can get it all at once. It comes in two ways, – first, if one practises remembering the Divine and offering the work each time one does something.  Secondly, by the meditation an inner consciousness begins to develop which, after a time, not at once or suddenly, becomes more and more automatically permanent. One feels this as a separate consciousness from that outer which works.

Even the smallest meanest work became
A sweet or glad and glorious sacrament,
An offering to the self of the great world
Or a service to the One in each and all.
