Salutations to Non-attached great saints
Karma is a material entity. To the extent the living soul keeps contact with karma, the living soul becomes different from the real self and becomes influenced by ignorance. This is undersood by my experience. How wonderful it is that karma being material by nature, it tries to demonstrate the sentient soul as insentient. Sentient soul forgetting its sentience, believes that it is insentient karmas. It is quite reasonable to hold that the human beings who do not regard the contact of karma with the sentient self as the real nature of self and suffer these contacts due to previous deeds of the living soul, to be free from them for ever, will surely realize their pure selves in a gradual high order. True reason to say this is that it has so happened in the past, it so happens in present times and it will exactly happen so in all times to come in future.

will become free from all binding actions and will realize his pure conscious self.
The living soul will act humbly and respectfully, will experience simplicity and lowliness, taking shelter, falling at the feet of a spiritual saint and will finally achieve the stage of spiritual development that is reached by his spiritual master or guru.
In the endless past, either a living being has not acquired proper spiritual qualification or has not been able to contact the appropriate spiritual guide who combines in him the quality of being a spiritual saint capable of highly spiritual contacts and at the same time capable of proper verbal guidance. If he meets a proper spiritual guide, it is certain as day light that such a soul would easily obtain self realization or liberation. This way only the already self realized Siddhas are known to have flourished on earth. All scriptures admit this fact and you are advised to reflect on it. What I have said here is true in all the three stages of time in the past, present and future.
