Krishna’s story is fascinating and is a wonderful story. When Vyasa
was unhappy after the completion of the 18 Puranas (scriptural stories),
Narada suggested that Vyasa write about Lord Vishnu’s incarnations.
So, Vyasa chronicled the stories of Vishnu’s incarnations. Vyasa wrote
about creation, sustenance and the destructions of all that exist.

How can you escape Karma? Only through Karma. Karma can be ridden by
counter Karma. That is the only solution. All your self centric Karma
will create more Karma to live again and go through life again. KARMA
performed for others' benefit will reduce your KARMIC burden.

Sadguru gives car, license and the guidance. But it is you who drives
the car. You have to live up to your Karma. You cannot expect God to
drive the car. Then God will crash the car and take you to hospital.

aunt. God is very clever.

Karma Yogi in the real sense.

cleanses the mind of those coming within the orbit of His grace. It is
very difficult to cut across the physical basis of the relationship
which explains why devotees from far and near make it a point to visit
their Sadguru time and again.
