KARMA - THE MECHANISM
SUTRAS
Yet temporary equanimity does not remove the real reason for exhaustion and depression. They only disappear completely when the respective karmas are dissolved. Therefore any attempt to hold onto this state is doomed from the beginning.
If we orient our life towards the expansion of our limits, we automatically prevent this type of stagnation. But this means to intentionally break up all situations that present us with always the same, familiar events which long ceased to give us new insights and understanding. It means to break out of stagnant circumstances we only sustain because of our desire for comfort. It means to transform new insights into action and to explore paths whose course and final destination is open.
Certainly - this path takes effort, but this is only a small price to pay for the freedom from karmic restraints and the unfolding of new stages of life that bring us closer to realize the immense potential deep within us. Implementing the activities and attitudes listed in this chapter means:
- to prevent the binding of new karma - to actively dissolve karmic bonds that already exist - to conduct our activities consciously - to be aware of our personal behavior - to heed the needs of other beings - to rethink our own situation - to persevere at the confrontation with obstacles - to direct our actions towards freedom from all karmic limitations
(charitra).
