Karma, Destiny, and the Way Out: Understanding the System

1. Introduction: The Chaos of Life

Why do the same things keep happening to us? Why do some people suffer endlessly, while others seem to float through life untouched? Whether it’s betrayal, financial loss, health breakdowns, or heartbreak — there’s a moment when we stop and ask:

“Is this my fault? Or is this already written?”

And if it’s written — then what role do I even play?

2. So… Is It All Written?

Let’s say it plainly:

If the universe is truly perfect, then everything is already in the right place — every breath, every loss, every betrayal, every so-called mistake.

You sitting here reading this? Written.
That missed opportunity you regret? Written.
Even your desire to change your karma? Also written.

So then — what’s left?
What is your part in all of this?

3. You Can’t Outsmart Karma

We’re told:

“You created this karma in a past life.”
“You’re paying the price now.”
“You have the power to change your future.”

But here’s the paradox:

If you abused your power in a past life — but that too was written — then how were you ever truly responsible?

If all your reactions, thoughts, and circumstances are written — how could you be blamed?

So then karma is not about what you did — it’s about how you were engaged when it happened.

4. Karma Is Engagement — Not Action

Let’s get clear:

It’s not what you do. It’s how deeply you’re entangled in what’s happening.

Entanglement = Karma.

Did you feel pride, anger, guilt, or hate?
Did you cling to the outcome?
Did you identify with the role you were playing?

Those vibrations are what create impressions (samskaras). And impressions — not actions — are what bind you to the wheel of birth and death.

A saint can kill without creating karma.
A monk can meditate and still get bound.

Because it’s not about the action — it’s about the mind’s engagement in the act.

5. The Trap of Victimhood

Let’s take a modern example:

A powerful man manipulates the market. People lose billions. His friends make billions.

Now if that man is proud, if he enjoys the control, if he’s attached — he is entangled.

But what about you?

If you’re watching and you’re angry, you’re entangled too.
If you feel powerless, you’re still in it.
If you hold on to the pain, the injustice — you’re caught.

The trap is not in the event. The trap is in your mind.

6. What If One Person Is Free but the Other Isn’t?

Let’s say someone hurts you.

You’re affected. But instead of reacting, instead of spiraling, you anchor yourself in something higher. You shift your engagement to the Divine — the Shabda, the Surat, the conscious current.

Now your karma doesn’t just dissolve — you rise above it.

But the one who hurt you? They’re still entangled. Their vibration is still stuck in ego. So the cycle continues — but not with you anymore.

Karma doesn’t need the same two people. It only needs matching frequencies.

Someone else will now mirror that back to them — until they’re ready to be free.

7. Karma Is a Vibration, Not a Scoreboard

There’s no divine judge saying, “You hurt them, now they’ll hurt you.”

There’s just energy — engagement — and repetition.

And when you no longer vibrate with an old wound — it no longer repeats.

The loop ends for you the moment you anchor into something higher.

8. The Human Birth Is the Opportunity

Animals can’t choose their food.
They can’t reflect on their thoughts.
They can’t question life.

But you can. That’s the power of human birth.

You can observe your mind.
You can recognize the illusion.
You can connect to the Divine within.

That’s why the human body is not just a body — it’s a vessel for liberation.

And you don’t get many of them.

9. So What’s the Way Out?

You don’t escape karma by avoiding life.
You escape by attaching yourself to something more powerful than karma — something above the mind.

That power is:

The Shabda — the inner sound current.
The Surat — your conscious attention.
The Guide — the one who has already walked the path.
The Divine — the source of everything.

And grace? Grace is your willingness to take that help.

The guide doesn’t take away your karma. They help you rise above it.

10. The Final Message: Stop Trying to Fix Karma — Start Attaching Higher

You don’t need to understand the whole system.

Just understand this:

Karma is created by engagement.
You will never stop events from happening.
But you can choose where your attention is anchored.

You are either attached to illusion, or you’re attached to the Divine.

There is no neutral.

11. So Ask Yourself: Where Do You Want to Go from Here?

Do you want to keep repeating the same emotions?
Or are you ready to wake up?
Are you willing to take the hand that’s reaching out?

Because that’s what grace really is — the willingness to say yes.

Yes to the truth.
Yes to the path.
Yes to the work.
Yes to the freedom.

The moment you engage with the Divine… Karma stops being your prison — and becomes your path home.
