________________
A clear comprehension of Karma concept inspires one to pursue one's goal in life with greater purpose and zeal rather than engendering inertia as is mistakenly assumed by those who equate it with fatalism. On the contrary, it enthuses one with the renewed hope and banishes all thoughts of pessimism and passivity. Just as we have built our present on the actions and attitudes in the past, we can build our future to our liking by making the most of our present opportunity by putting our best foot forward. Not only that, but by following this line, we can also modify to a certain extent the present set of circumstances inherited as karmic consequences from our previous births.
