At that time Devarshi Narad was going somewhere with his disciple Tumbaruni. It was summer time. He got thirsty while walking. A little farther on they saw a feast. He went there and drank some water and went a little farther and sat in the shade of a banyan tree. So a butcher passed by with twenty-five or thirty goats. One of the goats went to a nearby shop to eat grain. That shop belonged to a big landlord.
Seth got very angry when he saw a goat eating grain from the shop. So he hit him hard. The goat kept going back to the butcher. Seth called the butcher and said, "When you kill this goat, give it back to me." The butcher asked, "What are you going to do with it?" I want his head in return. "
Devarshi Narad was watching all this. Naradaji was very surprised that the goat had eaten only a little grain, yet why did Seth fall behind it? He laughed as he watched intently. Tumbaru asked him why he was laughing. He said, "You were sad when Seth was killing the goat and now why are you laughing?" Naradaji said, "Son! All this is the fruit of karma.
The Seth who is sitting at this shop is his son. Seth has become a goat after his death. It was because of his old attachment and attachment to this shop that he went to this shop and started eating food, but his son beat him and handed him over to the butcher. He was so angry that he wanted a goat's head.
Only one of the thirty goats went to the shop because of an old relationship with him. The son for whom he had amassed so much wealth that the son ate a little grain and beat him with a stick. Seeing the speed of karma and the fascination of the soul made me laugh. This story gives us the message that the speed of karma is very nyari.
Man must enjoy the fruits of his deeds. Relationships of previous births are destroyed after death, but the deeds we have done do not leave us behind. So we need to let go of the bondage of the world and have a close relationship with God the Father. Because that one relationship is eternal and everlasting. In addition to fulfilling our worldly and family duties, we should keep on contemplating, remembering and meditating on God. Because only God can free us from all bondage and sorrow.
