Introduction
This post talks about the three measures involved in paying
the karma that we have. The wise use of these three measures can put us into a
better karmic situation. This is really simple common sense stuff.
The Three Measures
The Three Measures are:
1.)
Paying.
2.)
Stop creating more karma.
3.)
Accumulating capital.
Paying
We are always paying karma. But we can pay our karma more
effectively if we work more intensely in the death of the ego. The part of the
death of the ego that accelerates our karmic payment is developing the values
of the Being trapped or polarised wrongly in the ego.
If we work to pay our debts consciously we can accelerate
their payment.
Stop Creating More Karma
This is really important! We can do this by being very alert
and always examining before we act the consequences of our actions. If we
always try to consciously do the good or what is better in relativity, we will
do well here.
We have to make it like a motto for ourselves, to always do
the good or the better in relativity. A key part of this is stop the ego from
acting.
For our cosmic account balance this is so important. Because
creating more and more karma drains our account of our cosmic capital. This
measure is so important to be able to gain control of our cosmic account
balance.
Accumulating Capital
We need to create cosmic capital! It helps with everything
if we don’t have cosmic capital we can not get healed if we are sick, we can
not advance on the path, we can not die in the ego we want to dissolve.
It is also very difficult to help others when we do not have
capital. If we have capital we can do so many things. Every practice that we do
pays some karma and also stores away some cosmic capital.
Beware! Do Carry Out all Three Measures Simultaneously not Just the First
Measure
We have to be wise, if we just pay and pay we will be left
with no savings or in other words no capital. We really need to have some
capital as well. So that is why it is better to always pay and to accumulate
cosmic capital at the same time.
It is just like things in the human field. We can pay off
all of our mortgage and then have no money to buy food and to pay the bills. So
we end up in trouble. I tis better to pay a little slower and still have money
to buy food and the pay the utility bills.
End (1018).
