DEAR MR. INDIAN - ANOTHER DOUBT

Taking your argument at face value and believing that the L0rd is inconsequential in the operation of l@w of K@rma, what is the point in revering, worshipping and praying to him ? Infact, it is the l@w of K@rma which controls our destiny, is supreme and has the full authority. Humans, animals and insects become just like robots in the play of k@rma where they have to bear the consequences in birth after birth. So, what is the role of a Super Natural in this life game ? Can you explain??

I never said, "G0d is inconsequential". Please mark my words very carefully. You are trying to understand VedAnta and you are so casual in jumping to conclusions !! VedAnta is a difficult subject. You must be serious to understand this.

Now the answer :

G0d is not controlled by Laws of Nature. G0d also has power of showering grace to help you. So, prayer helps.

Second and most important thing I want to point out here that unlike other religions "attaining heaven" is an inferior spiritual goal in H!ndu Dharma. If you are seeking only worldly comforts and heaven after death ... you can rely upon your efforts alone.

Next doubt has come because you have not read my posts carefully. What is Karma ? Karma is impressions in conditioned consciousenss (our mind acting through brain). These impressions are like seeds for bringing forth opportunities and environment in future. But your power of discrimination is with you and in what way you use it will alter the happenings of present and the future.

Well the point is I have no control over my actions according to the law of karma when it transcends my birth and is a cycle. We are always a victim of the environment and the circumstances we live in. Suppose I face the music in this life for my sins in earlier life and an environment & circumstances are created in such a fashion devised by the law of karma, I will only be forced to do ev1l things as a response to the atrocities committed against me.

not necessarily. if you have the wisdom to understand that what is happening to you is due to what you have done (in current or previous births) and you don't want to accumulate more karma, then you learn to 'show the other cheek'.

If the law of karma is for real and steered by none and operates independent, G0d has no power as such to interfere in our life whatsoever. How can the two be for real when they are self-contradictory ?

I just want to know whether you understood its utility in the first place as you did once claim here that it can be deciphered only by the spiritually advanced. In that case, the question arises as to whether you are spiritually advanced to make such claims ? Nevertheless, good bye to you. I appreciate your patience in this debate to hear other view points and it is a noble quality not many can afford. Regarding your advise, well, the fact is I have read Vedanta to an extent but couldn't make anything special about it as it was not appealing to my logical faculties. And so, I didn't take much pain to go deep into the subject. Thanks. Have nice feelings.

You are an Atheist, right?
One question, how did this Law of Karma came into existence, which not only controls every living being but also ALL the universal bodies? Automatically???
Did you ever wondered that our Sun, Moon, etc., follows the rules to rise & set each & everyday without fail? We can fail, but if they fails to do their job, what will happen?

You should be clear what you are discussing and what answers are being given. You first talked about Atharva Deva and how it can talk about healing by mantras being such an authoritative scripture. I am right ? On that I stated that this was samhita part of the Veda and in another post I stated that followers of Samhita part of Veda were defeated in debate by Shankaracharya and VedAnta is considered superior to Samhita part (even though both are parts of same Veda). Now you linked it to Laws of Karma and said that I said something being inferior to another on this issue .... ???? What is this ? Please read my posts again.

See I was clear in what I was pointing out. I was dealing with the universal view of H1ndu l@w of k@rma which was predicated on rebirth, deeds, mukthi and heaven (Some Hindu texts claim mukthi is the ultimate aim while some others claim it as heaven). I was not dealing with any particular text as such as I very well know many texts within the H1ndu fold contradict one another with some even dismissive of it like the Karvaka. I never said I was taking the view from the Ved@ or that. Mine were just the logical fall out of the H1ndu version of l@w of K@rma when we correlate it with its root concept which has numerous logical constraints . It was you who claimed that BG was different and had different connotations. You also claimed it as superior and classified the other as inferior. I am not sure on what authority you did it but you claimed that Shank@racharya defeated K@rmakand!s etc. But when you said that in this context, I thought you infact were countering the universal view on H1ndu l@w of K@rma. Many in this forum were infact negating the rebirth concept itself as a fall out of k@rma.

"Those who are envious and mischievous, who are the lowest among men, I perpetually cast into transmigration, into various demoniac species of life" (16,19). And also: "Those who worship me and surrender all their activities unto me, being devoted to me without hesitation, engaged in devotional service and meditating unto me, I deliver them quickly from the ocean of birth and death" (12,6-7).

No, the heading is incorrect. He says very clearly in BG 5.14 : "Lord doesn't create the ownership of action, doesn't create the actions and also doesn't create the fruits of any action. It is the Nature that works."

You can check this.

The verse you have quoted shows the indirect command of the Lord over fruits of actions. This is because Nature is Inert unless powered by Br ahman or G0d. And so, the laws of Karma must have the sanction of the Lord. But he doesn't interfere in application of laws.

The second verse talks about His grace which should seen differently.

Indirect is your interpretation. The verse is very clear, concise and it says that if you reverse, worship and surrender to him, the L0rd will free you from the birth cycle which explicitly means that he directly intervenes and meddles in the operation of K@rma making it inconsequential. I am not here talking about natural laws. I am talking about changing the destiny and the verse above is very clear where it says the L0rd will free one from the birth and death cycle which ofcourse works contradictory to the l@w of k@rma. And here you are defending the indefensible ?

It is not my interpretation. VedAnta is subject which is difficult to understand by mind. This is because, the Reality is beyond all mental concepts. If such things bother you, you will be completely baffled by reading whole of VedAnta !

This is why knowledge of VedAnta is to be imparted to only the deserving ones by a qualified teacher.Hindu Dharma is different from other religions on this issue. Everyone is not authorised to interpret its meaning just be reading it literally.

This is what the proponents of every f@ith claims. Difficult to comprehend and understand ? Even for seeking G0d, we are fed with the same statement. Difficult to comprehend and understand by sensual experience ? But these same people will be quick to point out the missing links in evolution theory and quick to dismiss it citing it as a faultline to repose their confidence, while numerous logical loop holes will be side stepped just on the premise of being difficult to understand when it comes to their faith.
