Soul Sustenance

The Invisible Law Of The Universe (Part 1) 

We are living in a world full of uncertainities i.e. a world where anything can go wrong in a second. Have you ever wondered what the reason for this is? Tomorrow you step out of your house and you could meet with an accident. You appear for a job interview and inspite of all your hard work, you don’t do as well as expected. Also, sometimes within a few seconds, a close relationship with a friend or a close associate turns negative because of a misunderstanding and you are no longer on good terms with the person. Or in some cases a person, because of his or her own thinking, suddenly goes through an episode of depression. He or she is unable to concentrate his mind on managing his or her family as before. So life events are as unpredictable as the weather. 

We have all got used to watching news on television and reading the newspaper and everyday we listen to all these unexpected events. Events are happening in the lives of people around us and all over the world. Does anyone ever wonder why the world is tiring in this way or why the world is no longer that permanently peace and happiness filled? As we spiritual beings spend more and more time on earth, the quality of our actions is coming down. Also, the energy of these actions which radiates into our immediate surroundings is of a similar nature. This energy keeps coming back at us repeatedly. Each time we think a negative thought, speak a negative word or perform a negative action; the thought, word and action is forgotten after some time. But all of them leave a negative sanskara or subtle impression on the soul. This attracts negative situations from the people around us and from the nature’s elements in the form of negative situations of different types. Situations arise in the physical body, role and relationships, sometimes immediately, sometimes after a few days, months or years and sometimes even after many births.
