பணம் சேர்வதற்கு உரிய விதி நமக்கு இருந்தால், சேர்ப்பதற்கான முயற்சி
உண்டாகும். இருப்பதையும் இழப்பதற்கான விதி இருந்தால் சோம்பல் உண்டாகும்.
பேதைப் படுக்கும் இழவூழ் அறிவகற்றும் ஆகலூ ழுற்றக் கடை
தாழ்வதற்கு உரிய விதி இருந்தால் அறிவு மனிதனைப் பேதை ஆக்கும்; உயர்வதற்கு உரிய
விதி இருந்தால் அறிவு விரிவு பெறும்.
நுண்ணிய நூல்பல கற்பினும் மற்றுந்தன் உண்மை யறிவே மிகும்
பேதை ஆக்குவதற்கு உரிய விதி நமக்கு இருந்தால், நுட்பமான கருத்துக்களை உடைய பல
நூல்களைக் கற்றாலும் இயல்பான அறிவே இருக்கும். ( அறிவு விரிவ பெறாது)
வகுத்தான் வகுத்த வகையல்லாற் கோடி தொகுத்தார்க்குந் துய்த்த லரிது
கோடிப்பொருள் சேர்ந்திருந்தாலும் , இறைவன் விதித்த விதிப்படிதான் நாம் அதை
அனுபவிக்க முடியுமே தவிர, நம் விருப்பப்படி அனுபவிப்பது கடினம்.
ஊழிற் பெருவலி யாவுள மற்றொன்று சூழினுந் தான்முந் துறும்
விதியை வெல்ல வேறொரு வழியை எண்ணி நாம் செயற்பட்டாலும், அந்த வழியிலேயோ வேறு
ஒரு வழியிலேயோ அது நம்முன் வந்து நிற்கும்; ஆகவே விதியை விட வேறு எவை
வலிமையானவை?

Tiruvalluvar or Jambunathan do not lie; fact is Oozhvinai vandu mun
uruthum is certain; but there is no point is succumbing to it; rather face
it and tr forcing your effort; who knows? may win over the situation also
if the GOOD KARMA prevailed.
“This vast universe is a wheel. Upon it are all creatures that are subject
to birth, death, and rebirth. Round and round it turns, and never stops. It
is the wheel of cosmic consciousness. As long as the individual self thinks
it is separate from cosmic consciousness, it revolves upon the wheel in
bondage to the laws of birth, death, and rebirth. But when through the
grace of cosmic consciousness it realizes its identity with him, it
revolves upon the wheel no longer. It achieves immortality.” – Svetasvatara
Upanishad.
“Now a person is like this or like that. As it does, so it becomes; by
doing good it becomes good, and by doing evil it becomes evil, it becomes
pure by pure acts and bad by bad acts. And others, however, say that a
person consists of desires. And as is his desire, so is his will; and as is
his will, so is his deed; and whatever deed he does, that he will
reap.” – Brihadaranyaka
Upanishad – 4.4.5
“And here there is this verse: “To whatever object a man’s own mind is
attached, to that he goes strenuously together with his deed; and having
obtained the end (the last results) of whatever deed he does here on earth,
he returns again from that world (which is the temporary reward of his
deed) to this world of action. So much for the man who desires.” –
Brihadaranyaka
Upanishad – 4.4.6
In Vaisheshika Sutra X.ii.7 and meaning characteristic or distinguishing,
according to Pāṇini (Sutra IV.iii.87) is derived from the word Vishesha
meaning species, distinction, difference, excellence or superiority. Uluka,
who was before the birth of Gautama Buddha and is commonly known as Kanada,
compiled the Vaisheshika sutras. Gautama who founded the Nyaya School came
later. The term Adrishta appears in Vaisheshika Sutra V.i.15:
मणिगमनं सूच्यभिसर्पणमदृष्टकारणकम् |
"The movement of the jewel (and) the approach of the needle, (both) have
adrishtam (the invisible consequences of previous acts) as their cause."
The reason of the movement of the jewel is not a particular volition but
the efficient cause is the merit of the former possessor or the demerit of
the thief. The non-combative cause is its conjunction with soul possessing
adrishta (or results of actions in previous states of existence) and the
combinative cause is the jewel. Adrishta is also the cause of attraction of
the needle towards a loadstone (magnet). Owing to adrishta is the upwards
flaming of fire, the sideward motion of air and the actions of atoms at the
beginning of creation. Kanada, later on, tells us that even action in earth
results from impulse, impact, and conjunction with the conjunct and is
caused by Adrishta (Vaisheshika Sutra V.ii.1-2).[10] The fruits or rewards
of yajnas or sacrifice are not dispensed by any beneficent God.
However, Patanjali tells us –क्लेशमूलः कर्माशयो दृष्टादृष्टजन्मवेदनीयः (Yoga
Sutras II.12) that obstacles are the breeding ground for tendencies that
give rise to actions and the consequences thereof; such obstacles are
experienced as visible and invisible obstacles. Swami Prabhavananda
translates this sutra as – "A man’s latent tendencies have been created by
his past thoughts and actions; these tendencies will bear fruits, both in
this life and in lives to come. “Apurva{adrishta} is an epistemic mechanism
that indicates knowledge of causal links between acts and their
consequences. Sabara discusses this concept in his commentary on the
Vaisheshika Sutras, and even claims that by the word codana (Sanskrit: चोदन
-meaning precept or rule -the performative
element of an injunction) Jaimini really meant Apurva; it is mentioned by
Jaimini in passing, as part of purvapaksa argument in Mimamsa Sutra I.ii.9
The Karma is certain; but that man who is acting without inaction
and inactive even in action, is courageous; stitha Pragnan. Adrishta itself
shows the word coined as UNSEEN. So, work consciously; fall will not be
felt; survival may be certain
