THE GREAT BALANCER CALLED THE SUPREME BEING.
The most astonishing fact that the world exists the way it is today in itself is the proof that god exists. What ever be the theory the truth is that it is a great wonder to be alive and exists among other animals, birds and fellow human beings. If only people realize the futility of fighting each other so blindly without a feeling of guilt or soberness is the greatest blunder human beings can ill afford?
Our history has proved that one hardly gains by suppressing others’ free thoughts or beliefs in any time in history. The global connectivity and open markets and economies can be well utilized for friendship among the farthest of the countries. We are now living in times of global trotting with possibility of having breakfast in US lunch in UK and dinner in Japan on the same day unlike, those periods when people had to sail for months to see another continent and have taken centuries to find the total area of the earth. Now man knows the globe almost minutely. We also know that every continent is different in so many ways with people and culture also varying from place to place. Co lour and races may be different but the species is one and only has men and women.
Why does one wants to destroy others while there is a possibility of being friendly and we all can very well share and live happily ever after. The Karmic eventuality as Hinduism teaches illuminates the ultimate truth that each of us are the sum of the results of our actions and our forefathers’ too has done good and bad, sometimes the result may follow us like a curse for our whole lifetime or may be for our children and grand children’s lives too, if the actions were very sinful and have effected too many people as a result then one sure can expect the curse of such sins follow us for generations. Our fore fathers must have realized it so early in our culture as proved by the existence of writings which no one ever could prove how old it was nor can any prove it was written in one life time which is maximum 100 years or a few more years at the most. To imagine an epic like ‘Mahabharata’ with lacs of characters can be compiled by one man is purely impossible if one takes a close look at the result with thousands and thousands of stories interconnected in such big volumes resulting in one of the most astonishing writing ever existed or seen on earth. There are no parallels when it comes to such writings but for Homer and Iliad written in Latin. Those are creations of super human capabilities and are perhaps the god almighty that has left behind those scriptures for all human beings to have as reminders to themselves of the result of their karma hence, people will be reminded of the righteousness. I remember having seen as a child in Malabar Christian College [MCC] in Calicut the sentence which said “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom”. Rightly said as people who fear gods wrath can seldom commit crimes or indulge in sinful activities. It is right in pointing out that we all have to pay dearly for all the sin that one commits in ones life time. Your ‘Karma’ [duty or actions] while you live will also reflect in the results that one encounters later, at times in ones’ life time itself, in some cases may continue even for generations the good or bad result of your ‘Karma’.

The most difficult fact is that people seldom admits their sins or crimes even when it pricks their minds subconsciously. Last week I read an article in which Sharon Stone an award winning Hollywood actress referred to the Chinese earth quake as a result of their
Actions in Tibet. The Chinese instead of thinking over it slammed the actress blaming her for playing politics.
Throughout human history people have committed big errors of judgment and have paid dearly. All those who suppress some ultimately will be suppressed by some others. It is the rule of the Lord which is the greatest balancer. You may think of all those mighty warriors and mighty countries, all have gone through the same natural cycle. No one will be spared in the court of the lord. No one can expect the benefit of doubt will favour them in the court of the lord. That’s why it is called the Supreme Being.
