Thought For The Day
Returning injury for injury, harm for harm,
or insult for insult only adds to the Karmic
burden, which has to be endured and
eliminated in future lives. This burden is
termed "Aagaami" (impending). You can't
escape the task of undergoing the
consequences of your thought, word,
and deed in due course. Paying evil for
evil can never lighten the weight of Karma;
it will only become heavier. It might confer
immediate relief and contentment, but it can
only make you suffer later. Forbearance,
therefore, instructs you to do good even to
those who injure you.
