The Science of Karma
karma. The existence of bondage lies entirely on you. You are responsible for it. Everything is your own projection. You are responsible even for the formation of your body. Every thing you encounter is your own design: Nobody else is responsible for it. For endless lives, you have been responsible "whole and sole".
Your Own Projection

What Is The Principle Of Karma? Questioner: What is the definition of karma?
Dadashri: When you are doing any work and you support that action, with the words, 'I am doing it', that is karma. To support the action with the belief 'I am the doer' is called binding the karma. It is this support of the belief of doer-ship that binds karma. If you know I am not the doer' and 'who is the doer' then the action will not have any support and the karma will be shed.
Questioner: What is the Principle of Karma?
Dadashri: If you yell, “You are a thief!" into a well, what happens?
Questioner: You will hear an echo of the words "you are a thief.'
Dadashri: Exactly! If you don't like to hear what comes to you, then you should say, "You are a king!" instead. And you will hear you are a king'. Say what you like to hear. Give what you would want to receive. That is the principle of karma. Karma means action. What is reaction? That is the echo.

This is because the projection is not solely in their hands. Talks about changing the projection are correct, but does one have the independent ability to do so? Yes one has, but only to a limited extent. The major portion of this control is not in your hand. Only after attaining the true knowledge, one becomes independent: Until then it is not quite so.
Now how can the project' be stopped? (The project has components of cause and effect) Until one finds one's real Self in all this, one continues to wander aimlessly. Although one recognizes that 'I am not this body, 'I am not these eyes', there are many other inner components within and one continues to identify with them, and the belief of 'I am Chandubhai' still remains. It is because of his inability to break free from this belief, that he thinks that he is the 'doer'. He believes that he is the one that speaks, he is the one doing the penance, samayik etc. As long as he believes that 'I am the doer', he continues to create new projects and suffer the consequences of the old (past life causes) ones. If one understood the principles of karma, one would understand the principle of liberation
