Irreconcilable Paradox
Law of karma states our karma boomerangs
We get back what we give
Hate begets hate, help gives help
If we do bad, bad will happen to us
This obviously implies that those who do bad to us
are doing so under the direction of God
because God wants to punish us
Does that mean bad doers are exempt from law of karma?
That we should accept all miseries without trying for solution
That everytime we do something bad
we should see God working through us and not repent
But that doesn't happen
All are punished for every mistake
It seems God is making us do bad deeds
and punishing for same.
If that's the case why should scriptures exhort us
to do good deeds?
An irreconcilable paradox indeed
