“We deserve all the justices and injustices that happen to us in life.” This aphorism holds weight when seen through the law of karma and Advaita Vedanta. The Bhagavad Gita teaches that while we must act against adharma, the outcomes—justice or injustice—unfold according to past karma. What appears as unfair is not random, but a ripened consequence (prārabdha) shaping our soul’s journey. For the realized Self, untouched by dualities, justice and injustice dissolve altogether. To act dharmically while surrendering fruits is the highest freedom.

I WISH TO ABANDON WORDS FOR THE MOST PART
Ramana Maharshi reminds us that silence alone can reveal the whole truth. Words, bound to duality, divide what is indivisible; silence unites and liberates. Even seekers well-versed in scriptures often remain entangled in the world of appearances, missing the essence. True teaching, as Ramana showed, does not lie in dialogue but in presence—in the quiet where the Self shines unobstructed. Silence is not emptiness but fullness, the eternal ground of being. To rest in it is to discover that truth is not attained but simply lived.
