What is Law of Karma? | spiritual pathways
The ego's wrong belief that "I am doing this" charges sub-atomic particles which solidify into karmas. These atoms of attraction and aversion discharge in the next life.

00:00Circumstances are of different varieties, gross circumstances, subtle circumstances,
00:22and circumstances of speech, there are all circumstances.
00:30In subtlest circumstances, there are seeds of karmas in the form of atoms, charged atoms
00:41which you bring from your past life.
00:45Karma, what is karma?
00:48When you were out of ignorance in your past life, so many things around your soul there
00:57were.
00:58Out of them, you were involved with attachment or with hatred.
01:06Now those atoms in which you are involved, they get charged.
01:14This involvement is not of your pure soul, but it's with ego.
01:22Ego gets involved, and ego is nothing but ego gets all power from soul.
01:28It's the power of soul, but ego takes over it.
01:32This is my power.
01:35So everything goes according to ego's belief.
01:44So ego is believing this is good thing, this is bad things.
01:48So with good, ego gets attachment, ego thinks this is bad thing, the belief of ego is that
01:55this is bad things.
01:57So there hatred starts.
02:00So raga and dvesha, attachment and hatred, these are only two major things which according
02:07to this you charge those atoms, and these charged atoms, they are having their own magnetic
02:13power.
02:15Once they get charged.
02:19This thing is also made up of atoms, but these are not charged atoms because there is no
02:25presence of soul in these things.
02:27Where is there the presence of soul, then ego and everything, all atoms get activated.
02:35Just presence.
02:36Our soul works like catalyst, it's not doer, but it works like catalyst.
02:41Presence of soul only, presence of sun, sun doesn't have to come here and enlighten
02:48everything or give power or solar energy to anything, but just its presence only makes
02:56all these things.
02:58Same way the presence of soul, the ego and everything, intellect, all these things get
03:03activated and they take everything from soul and they think that this is my own power.
03:12And these are charged atoms, they get their own magnetic power and there are so many others,
03:20other atoms are there which are surrounding our soul, they are having their own magnetic
03:27field, so they get attracted to this magnetic field and they get collected around soul.
03:37These charged atoms which are attached to your soul, this is nothing but we say the
03:45charged karmas.
03:48And now law of nature, whatever is charged, it gets automatically discharged.
03:58Nobody has to do anything for this discharge process, it's spontaneous.
04:05But there is some laws for this discharge process, there is no natural laws.
04:16From charge to discharge it requires some time factor and at the stage of discharging
04:26it gets visible form, discharge stage of atom is always in visible form and when you find
04:35visible form, that process ends and for that there are so many other circumstances, gross
04:44circumstances, visible circumstances also, they are also important to help to this charged
04:53atom to get discharged in visible forms.
04:57So all circumstances, gross circumstances, subtle circumstances, circumstances of speech,
05:04they are working together and at the end the result comes that the charged atom gets discharged
05:13and you find some happening, that means suppose you are mad, you are scolding, you are shouting,
05:22this is happening, this happening is happened, then you accept it, this is all correct.
05:33But it requires lot of process, very big process and soul is not doer, soul is doing nothing
05:41in this process, just presence only and only these atoms, inanimate things, they are working.
