[Parvati Mohan]

There are three types of Karma, viz. sanchita or arjita(stored/preserved), prārabdha(preordained) and kriyamāna or āgama (accumulating):

prārabdhāgāmyarjitāni karmatrayamitīritam [Varah Up. – 12]
Prārabdha, āgami and arjita, these are the three karmas.
The coming of existence (creation) and ceasing of existence (dissolution) have been going on infinitely. Hence, a jivatma also takes birth and dies infinite times in it. As a jivatma continues his life, he engages in numerous kinds of actions both good and bad. But his single life time may not be enough to experience the results of all his actions. And because a reaction must follow an action, to experience the reaction of his own actions the jiva has to take birth again accordingly.

1.Sanchita Karma

Now the thing is, because a jivatama takes countless births, his actions are also countless. So all the unexperienced pending reactions of the jivatama that are due to be experienced are stored as Sanchita Karma. So sanchita karma of a jiva is too large, nearly infinite.

2.Prārabdha Karma

Only a portion of the sanchita karma can be experienced in one life time. So that portion of karma which determines most events and type of life of a jivatma is known as Prarabdha Karma. It is this prarabdha karma that determines the species of life and major events in life.

3.Kriyamāna Karma

Because a jivatma is not only experiencing reactions to his past life actions (like sudden accident, winning of lottery, etc.) but also engaged in newer ones, all his present life actions get accumulated and known as kriyamana karma. These karmas will either yield result in the same life or if they do not get experienced then they will get stored up as sanchita karma to influence the future lives of the jivatma.

Now that we know these three types of Karma, let me also point out why we reincarnate to pay for our past karmas:

If we pay for our sins in the same life, then why do we reincarnate?

It is because, even if we pay for some of our deeds, we have numerous other reactions of psat life still in pending to be experienced. So even if our karmic account of this life stays clean, to balance out our past actions we have to take birth again unless we clear them out some way in the present life.

If karma of past life is not considered then why people have troubles in their lives?

This question indeed suggests the fact that Karma of past life do affect the present life. For example, sometimes even good persons face accidents, misfortune etc. and some bad people, even though engaged in bad actions, move freely. This happens all because of prarabdha karma. If a person has in his prarabdha to face accident, then doesn’t matter how good he is in his present life, he will certainly face it to balance out his past life action. Similarly, if a person has in prarabdha to enjoy a luxurious life, then he will certainly do so even if he does bad actions.

Karma goes very deep (gahanā karmaṇo gatiḥ- BG 4.17). Hence, understanding all its implications becomes difficult and complex.

Lord Muruga is also known as Arumugam meaning 6 faces, through which he has the ability to see towards East, West, North, South, Sky and Earth. The 6 faces are made up of the 5 faces of Lord Shiva ( Panchavaktra Shiva) plus the Face of Goddess Uma Devi. The 6th face can only be seen by the learned. This is symbolic of the 5 senses that lead to the 6th sense which is represented by ‘Atho mugam‘.

Lord Shiva, the 5 faces, blesses people with the goodness of the other world while Goddess Parvati, the 6th face, blesses people with the goodness of this world. Lord Muruga in this form blesses people with the comforts of both the worlds. He is the God of Nature, as He directs Nature. He protects all living creatures in it.

Nakkirar in his Tirumurugatruppadai (A classic book of the Sangam Age) describes the following :

1) the first face of Murugan removes ignorance and spiritual darkness engulfing the world
2) the second face of Murugan boons on devotees who follow dharma,
3) the third face protects and watches the pujas and offerings of devotees and blesses those devotees offering it with a pure mind,
4) the fourth face of Murugan helps those in search of self realization and helps those investigating the truth of Pranavam or Om.
5) the fifth face annhilates those who practice Adharma
6) the sixth face of Murugan glances with love towards the face of his wives

It is said that one’s bed is not supposed to be in alignment with the door especially the first feet. According to the olden days theory they believe that it mimics a coffin and how they used to take the body out of the room.

I believe that time is a relation to the day to day existence and we live in an atmosphere that records life and the ability for communications to be recorded

The dark entities for sure have a miserable and negative impact on us and can drain the energy away.

From my experience what I believe is that if whomever your speaking starts getting angry or annoyed then probably you are channeling into something other than your higher self. Once you start becoming in sync with your guide you will be able to understand their energy. But like i said there are chances of crossing over of channels to occur and you might end up picking up something else which poses as your guide.

The only times i think i am able to see an aura is when people stand in front a white or a yellow background.

I am an Aries and a combination of clear quatrz and lepidolite has really helped me a lot.

It is all about the way you express a content and handle a situation. The same matter can be conveyed to a person in a very polite manner and try and make an effort to make him understand . In this way you will be able to express your feelings and there wont be any necessity to hide the truth and at the same time you will feel satisfied that you have conveyed the message.
