SHRUTSAGAR
May-2017 Achalabharatha said, “Oh Lord! Thou art an omniscient and knoweth the doubt over which I have been pondering since years. I think that as a person gradually frees himself from evil deeds, he begins to achieve happiness, and when he is freed from all sins he achieves eternal happiness. When it is enough to believe in the “Papa tattva” what is the need to believe or take into account the element of 'Punya’?”
The Lord replied, “In the Vedic verse, the “Purusha' has been given utmost importance and is described to be immortal, but none of the other truths have been denied in the verse. Though Punya tattva has not been referred to in the tenet, it has also not been said that it does not exist at all. If it were not a reality, the latter sentence "que: queda HUTI would not have been written. Just as evil deeds result in sin, good deeds result in fortune and merit. The Atman is eternal but wanders in the world taking many forms which perish after some time. It experiences the fruit of its Karma which it has earned in the previous births. Whatever deeds a person performs in one's life, Layers in the form of Punya and Papa get accumulated in the soul. In the next birth, the soul remains the same, but the body is of a total new origin. The soul carries to the next birth the layers of accumulated Karma. When the meritorious deeds bear fruit, the soul experiences pleasure and when the evil deeds are ripened the person experiences pain and suffering. One has to experience the fruit of both Punya and Papa. The former is compared to a golden chain and the latter is compared to an iron shackle. Both keep the soul bound to the wheel of Samsara'.
