Cause and effect Quote by Dada Bhagwan
““Karma alone does not take care of everything. One had made a desire of enjoying sex. He does that one karma. So what does parsatta (nature, the other power) say at that time? ‘We cannot give you just the karma of sex, in this world. We have to look at everything around it. So we have to give you a wife, mother-in-law, father-in-law, brother-in-law, aunt-in-law, we have to give you all that too!!’ In wanting just a wife, how much more became latched on to it! What a fiasco! How can one untangle from this web?””
