The spiritual master explains that many samskaras (dormant seeds of bad karma) from past incarnations also reside and wait in the spinal region ready to spring forth when karmic conditions are right, ready to germinate in a karmically defined time either physically or mentally. This means your psychological blueprint residues are contained in the subconscious and super conscious mind. When translated in yogic terminology are called samskaras.
Since bad karma from the past is already predestined ready to germinate when the future conditions are right waiting for you to have them spring forth, you won’t be there. You have changed the karmic conditions and avoided them by creating a new unfavorable environment hence resisting the effects of bad past actions by counteracting them, to the fulfillment of your evil karma with present good actions.
Whether it is temporary or not is your choice. Therefore in the degree you change your status as a spiritual being you can change the future; that is, you can change what is karmically predestined to happen to you. When the predestined future is there waiting for you, you won’t be there. Our poisonous actions must have the proper antidotes. For example, often overcome ill health by obeying the laws of good health.
Is karmic suffering inevitable? Well, yes it is if one is too lazy to take the necessary steps mentioned above. Use commonsense remedies by relying on the power of the mind rejecting any limiting circumstances even in the face of contradictory evidence. Believe and affirm in success, strength and health. The consequences of your actions have less power to harm you by not permitting the mind give in to them. Classify yourself and you will find your own answer.
