What applies to a lifeless object is similarly relevant to all souls. In infinite times, there has not been a single instance where people who have borne pain with evenmindedness have not been rewarded and instead been punished. Inversely, there also has not been an incident where a person revolting against his tormentor has not been punished.
Question: If the other person troubles us at every step, without a reason, it tantamounts to gross injustice. For how long does one bear injustice?
Answer: Are we interested in justice or a reconciliation? Where justice is done, there is happiness in the home in whose favour the judgement is passed, whereas in case of a reconciliation, there is happiness and satisfaction in both the homes. Karmasatta believes in justice. In his birth as Triprushtha Vasudev, the soul of Lord Mahavir had extremely hot, molten lead poured into the guard's ears. So in his last birth, Karmasatta meted out justice by putting nails into his ears. Dharmasatta believes in a reconciliation. Lord Mahavir bore the terrible pain with extraordinary equanimity, reconciled to the fact that it was a punishment for his past crimes. Let it be reiterated that Karmasatta believes in giving pain to souls while dharmasatta believes in making souls happy. Shouldn't we decide which one we prefer?

dharmasatta = religious authority/righteous authority
