The karmic cycle !

The "karmic" cycle, or in other words, the cycle of our actions. The "karma" in Hindu mythology, refers to the actions we perform - be it good or bad. It is said that whatever we get in our lives is purely based on our previous actions performed. We all must be aware of the famous proverb from our childhood - "As you sow, so shall you reap". That's exactly what i want to explain here.

How many times in our lives have we been dejected for the wrong happenings in our lives? How many times did we think that "WHY ME"? Many times. At-least for a normal human being on this planet earth. We may have been good to people recently and still the people have been grunting at us. Similarly, some people who have been really bad in their ways may escape getting good results in their lives. So what's wrong in us behaving in the same bad manner? Why not become bad as others? But we fail to recognize that the results we are getting may not necessarily be the fruits of our recent deeds. It may be related to a distant past where we may have been rude to others. Also, not necessarily, the people who have been bad and getting good results, will continue getting good results throughout their lives. Once the balance of good and bad karma destabilizes, the fate turns over you. You have to face the harshness if you have been harsh towards others. Similarly, you will be blessed with the goodness if you have been good with others. To explain it simple natural terms, when we were born in this world, we did not have any energy of our own. Whatever energy we possess is what we have got from this world, the nature around us. Obviously, the actions we perform are the result of the energy within us. Ultimately, no matter how much ever energy we possess, we have to return it back to this world. Everyone gets a chance in their lives to take a decision. A decision that will forever change their lives. Such decisions are usually taken by us considering our selfishness, to be frank. And seriously, there is no harm to be selfish in this cruel world. But also, care should be taken that our selfishness does not lead to the disruption in other people's lives. The decision we take should be in best regards to ourselves as well as others.

The cycle of karma - usually revolves around the "good" and the "bad". However, if i try to explain these things in details, many people would be confused. The reason behind this is that different people have different perception towards things. Like, what may be "good" to some might be "bad" to others, and vice-versa. Also, with this, fast changing world, the definition of "good" and "bad" has been changing rapidly.

To conclude, all i can say is "Good begets good. Bad begets bad." The fruits of our actions will be realized by us sometime in our lives, if not presently, maybe later in our lives, if not later in this life, maybe next life! But the cycle of karma continues and it won't stop for you, all what you can do is control your actions to cycle your life.
