All the relatives, mother, father, son, family etc., that we have met in this life are the result of Karma-relationship. All the Jivas have to stay in the same relationships as given in Sansar and follow its rules. It is also proper for us to stay, behave and experience accordingly. Understand and believe that, besides this relationship, if vruttie of any other kind is experienced in any other Jiva, it arises as a result of expression of our karma in past life. If we act with Jiva-Nature with such other Jiva, we get more entangled in new relationship. For that reason, every Jiva need to behave within the parameters appropriate to the relationship in Sansar and its dealing. The limits of behavior in worldly dealings is set accordingly. If we act only with the vruttie of Sansar and relationship in worldly dealings, it will pull us more in the ignorance. It will lead us away from the ideal of progress in the Bhavna of life. For this reason, if the Jiva whose ultimate goal is to reach higher life, it is best and beneficent for him to reduce the vrutties of the Jiva-Nature.
The matter mentioned above is worth understanding and keeping in mind. It is also worth noting that, even though it is necessary to reduce the vrutties of the Jiva-Nature from the Jivas that we have met and come in contact; we should make sure that our duty and heartfelt love-Bhavna towards their lives do not become less, but in fact increase, become lively and creative. If we want to reduce future Karma-destiny with the Jivas that we have met in this way, we must change our dualistic behavior towards such Jivatmas in worldly dealings. If we can practice to change our tendencies towards them with awareness and devotion in all the dealings, it is possible for us to attain a stage where we can be free from the web of Karmas, in-spite of performing the Karmas. We cannot run away from the given Karmas. We will have the strength to maintain the balance of our mind only if we have a heartfelt understanding of this and a solid belief that given circumstances and situations are for the purpose of developing our lives.
