Does karma imply that life is fair?

Life itself may not appear to be fair from a relative perspective but the Law of Karma is the only philosophical postulate that balances both perfect justice and the moral perfection of a Supreme Being.

In fact Karma is such a neat theory that God becomes redundant. As some great savant once said:– “God instituted the Law of Karma and then retired”.

All other soteriological theories raise all sorts of theological conundrums.

Why is there such inequality and abject suffering in a world created and managed by a perfect and omni-benevolent God? Especially since there is only ONE lifetime. The most common answer is;
#Karma #spirituality

– IT IS A TEST FROM GOD. A test that God himself sets with unfair parameters and the outcome of which he already knows - being omniscient and all - a most reprehensible concept.

In those religions which reject Karma, wilfulness and capriciousness contaminate the perfection of God. God being “omnipotent” could eradicate evil from the world if he wants to –

the fact that he hasn’t implies wilfulness. God can guide whomsoever he wills and the fact he guides some and not others implies caprice.

An eternal reward or horrific torment for eternity based entirely on a subscription and membership policy is immoral and abhorrent.

So for devotees and theologians KARMA - tempered with compassion, is the only doctrine that avoids cognitive dissonance and the imputation of the Sublime and Perfect Godhead. (Who is of course Vishnu!)
