Karma

"You are born poor in this life on account of your past evil karma. He is born rich on account of his good Karma. So, be satisfied with your humble lot; but do good to be rich in your next life. You are being oppressed now because of your past evil Karma. There is your destiny. Be humble and bear your sufferings patiently. Do good now. You can be certain of a better and happier life after death."


The Samyutta Nikaya states:
"According to the seed that’s sown,
So is the fruit you reap there from,
Doer of good will gather good,
Doer of evil, evil reaps,
Down is the seed and thou shalt taste
The fruit thereof."

Make stuff happen

 

Interesting idea made my mind rethink that all the roads  that had ponder was once Paths are made by walking. Early days these were merely forests.  This made me realized How often we spend our time waiting for the opportune moment to appear right before us.  Have they not walked down that path , have they waited. Then we wouldn’t be having these roads. 

“Wisdom is knowing what to do next, skill is knowing how to do it, and virtue is doing it” – David Starr Jordan

May you all , have courage to make stuff happen.
