So long
as the consequence of Karma persists, you are bound
to be born again and again to finish the consumption
thereof. The slate of Karma has to be wiped clean
so that your account of birth and death can be settled and
closed with no balance. The Name of the Lord can light the
spark of love within you to ignite the fire of Spiritual
Wisdom, which will guide your mind towards this goal. Just
as two branches of a tree, when grated one against another
for some time generates enough heat to set the tree on
fire, so too, continuous and sincere repetition of the
names of the Lord will light the spark of wisdom within you.
The holy Bhagavad Geetha says, Jnanagni dagdha
karmanam - ‘The flames of wisdom reduce to ashes
the effects of all activities’; they do not affect
one anymore just like a rope that has been reduced to ash
can bind no more.
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
