I Karma decides the results and not good things done now; the good things done now , may result only in future births; hence B G says do not expect the result , your way. "The seers say that Karma is of three kinds :-- Sañcita (accumulated), Vartamāna (present) and Prārabdha (commenced). Each of these is again subdivided into three, Sāttvik, Rājasik, and Tāmasik. The accumulated effects of Karmas done in many past lives is called Sañcita, O King! The effects of this Sāñcita Karma, be it auspicious or inauspicious, be it for a long or for a short time, must have to be enjoyed by the beings whether they be good or bad. This Sañcita Karma done by the embodied beings in several previous births, can never be totally exhausted even in hundred Koṭi Kalpas without their being enjoyed. The Karma that is being done by a Jīva and that has not as yet been completed, that is called Vartamāna Karma. The Jīvas do this Vartamāna Karma, auspicious or inauspicious, in their present embodiments. At the time of birth, a part of the Sañcita Karma, the soul takes up for fructification. This part of Sañcita Karma is called Prārabdha Karma. This exhausts only when its effects have been fully borne out by the embodied soul. The beings cannot but bear the effects of this Prārabdha Karma. O King! Know this for certain that the effects of merits or demerits done previously must be borne by anybody, be he a Deva, or a man, or an Asura, or a Yakṣa or a Gandharba. The acts done previously go to form the new births of all beings. When the Karma gets exhausted, then no more birth takes place. There is no doubt in this. Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Rudra, Indra and the other Devas, the Dānavas, Yakṣas, Gandharbas, all are under the control of this Karma. O King! Were it not so, how could they get bodies that are the causes of the enjoyments of pains and pleasures of all the beings. Therefore, O King! Out of the Sañcita Karmas done in many previous births, some Karmas get ripe in due time and they manifest themselves; those manifested Sañcita Karmas are called Prārabdha Karmas (those that are being enjoyed by an individual in the present birth). Impelled by this Prārabdha Karma, the Devas and the human beings, all do meritorious acts as well as sinful acts. Thus Indra out of his past meritorious acts attained his Indraship, and, out of his past sinful acts, committed the sin Brahmahattyā and so he was dislodged from his Indraship. What doubt can exist here? O King! So Nara and Nārāyana, the sons of Dharma, had to take births out of their previous Karmas; again Arjuṇa and Kṛṣṇa were born out of their Karmic effects as part incarnations of this Nara and Nārāyana. The Munis describe this Karma as the basis of the Purāṇas. Know that he is born of a Deva who is very wealthy and prosperous; he who is not born of the part of a Muni, never writes any spiritual treatise on Jñana or Knowledge; he who is not born of Rudra, never worships Rudra; who is not born of a Deva never distributes rice in charity; he who is not born <https://www.wisdomlib.org/hinduism/book/devi-bhagavata-purana/d/doc57235.html#page-517>of Śrī Viṣṇu, never becomes the king and lord of the earth. O King! The embodied souls derive their bodies certainly from Indra, Agni, Yama, Viṣṇu, and Kuvera. Indra presides over lordship, Agni presides over energy, Yama presides over anger, and Viṣṇu presides over strength. He who is powerful, fortunate, enjoying many enjoyments, learned, charitable, is said to be born of a Devāṃśa. O Lord of the earth! Similarly the Pāṇḍavas and Vāsudeva who was as glorious as Nārāyana were born of Devāṃśas. O King! Know this as quite certain that the bodies of the Jīvas are the receptacles of pains and pleasures; and the embodied souls (Jīvas) experience alternately pleasure and pain. No Jīva is independent; he is always under the Great Fate. He experiences birth, death, pleasure and pain, not out of his self will, but compelled and guided, as it were, by the unseen Fate.
30-41. O King! How very strong is that Fate can easily be judged by the following. The Pāṇḍavas were born in forest; then they went their own homes. They performed the Great Rājasūya Sacrifice by virtue of their own strength. After this they had to suffer their exiles in forest a much greater and more terrible hardship indeed! Next Arjuṇa performed a very hard asceticism when the Devas, not self-controlled, became pleased and granted him an auspicious boon. Still he could not extricate himself from the hands of the terrible hardship; nowhere could be found the fruits of the merits acquired in the past when he was afterwards remaining in exile in his human body in the forest! The severe tapasyā that he did in the Vadarikāsrama in his past incarnation as Nara, the son of Dharma, did not bear any fruit in his Arjuṇa birth. Mysterious and inexplicable are the ways and means of Karma with which the bodies of the several beings are concerned. How could men get an idea of it when the Devas themselves are at a loss to solve it. Bhagavān Vāsudeva had to take birth in the prison, a very critical and dangerous place; he was then carried by Vasudeva to the milkman Nanda’s abode at Gokula; he remained there eleven years and thence came back to Mathurā where he killed by force Kaṃsa, the son of Ūgrasena. Then he released his sorrowful father and mother from the bonds of prison and made Ūgrasena, the King of Mathurā. Afterwards he went to Dvārkā city, out of the fear of Kāla Yavana, the King of the Mleccas; thus Janārdana Kṛṣṇa performed many great and heroic deeds, being impelled by Fate. Then he left his mortal coil at Prabhāsa, a place of pilgrimage, along with his relatives and acquaintances and then ascended to his Vaikunṭha abode. All the Yādavas, sons, grandsons, friends, brothers, sisters and ladies of the houses all died under the curse of a Brāhmin. O King! I have thus described to you the inexplicable ways of Karma. <https://www.wisdomlib.org/hinduism/book/devi-bhagavata-purana/d/doc57235.html#page-518>What more shall I say than the fact that Vāsudeva was killed by the arrows of a hunter! Here ends the Tenth Chapter of the Sixth Book on the phase of Karma in the Mahapurāṇam Śrī Mad Devī Bhāgavatam of 18,000 verses by Maharṣi Veda Vyāsa. II Vedam is centered in Yagna; but what is yagna? West translated it as sacrifice which is erroneous. Yajña (यज्ञ).—[*yaj-bhāve na*]= sacrificial rite; any offering or oblation; यज्ञेन यज्ञमयजन्त देवाः (*yajñena yajñamayajanta devāḥ*); तस्माद्यज्ञात् सर्वहुतः (*tasmādyajñāt sarvahutaḥ*) &c.; यज्ञाद् भवति पर्जन्यो यज्ञः कर्मसमुद्भवः (*yajñād bhavati parjanyo yajñaḥ karmasamudbhavaḥ*) Bhagavadgītā (Bombay) 3.14. 2) An act of worship, any pious or devotional act. (Every householder, but particularly a Brāhmaṇa, has to perform five such devotional acts every day; their names are :-*bhūtayajña, manuṣyayajña, pitṛyajña, devayajña*, and *brahmayajña*, which are collectively called the five 'great sacrifices'; see *mahāyajña*, and the five words separately.) इष्टान् भोगान् हि वो देवा दास्यन्ते यज्ञ-भाविताः । तैर् दत्तान् अप्रदायैभ्यो यो भुङ्क्ते स्तेन एव सः ॥ १२ ॥ *iṣṭān bhogān hi vo devā dāsyante yajña-bhāvitāḥ *| *tair dattān apradāyaibhyo yo bhuṅkte stena eva saḥ* || 12 || Being pleased by your performance of sacrifice, the demigods <https://www.wisdomlib.org/definition/demigods#vaishnavism> will reward you by making arrangements for your desired enjoyment. Therefore, a person who enjoys the ingredients the demigods have given, without first offering them to the demigods, is certainly a thief. Yagna is a worship for the welfare of the society; that alone adds the righteous resuilts for the peceful life. Vedam is the knowledge; one who gains the knowledge, must serve for the sake of the society and never be selfish. B G never said YOU BE SELFISH . Thus yagna is the worl a swa dharma for the earth. All other works are equal to a thieving. Thus the Yagna decided the Karma; The karma decided the life.
