Greetings from Russell's Remnant:
Russell Whitesell told the story of a bank robber who planned and executed a perfect bank robbery. The robber then received bad karma for stealing money that was not his, but he received good karma for the excellent way in which he planned and carried out the robbery.
Some of D.K.s comments on Karma/Law of Cause and Effect
Cosmic Karma, Systemic Karma, Planetary Karma, The Karma of a chain, Globe Karma, Plane Karma, The Karma of a sub-plane. The Karma of the kingdoms of nature: (The mineral, the vegetable, the animal). The Karma of the Human Hierarchy: World Karma (the seven root-races), Racial Karma (the destiny of each root-race), Sub-race Karma, National Karma, Family Karma, and Individual Karma. All these different types of karma are intermingled in an inconceivable and inextricable manner - even the adepts cannot untangle the mystery. TCF 469+
Karma is the sum total of our acts, both in the present life and the proceeding births. Karma is of three kinds: The bodily actions good and bad - done after the acquisition of the discriminative knowledge. The actions formerly done, serving as seeds to grow the countless births. The actions of this body which give pleasure and pain in this life alone. TCF 470+
"As a man thinks, so is he." According to his thoughts are his desires and acts, and so results the future. He fixes for himself karma. TCF 591 All karma, when consciously faced, is precipitated by the power of thought. DNA 726
The Law of Cause and Effect (Law of Karma in the East) accounts for differences in circumstances and attitudes to life. ROC 118+ Karma determines the quality and nature of the physical body. EH 608
The choice of a pupil by a Master is governed by past karma and by old association, by the ray and by the need of the hour. LOM 274
The moment of birth for every individual is fixed in accordance with karmic necessities and probably passed lifetimes under each ray. EP1 169
Expenditure of energy in any one direction will necessitate an equal expenditure in an opposite. TCF 831
Every change in a life condition upon the physical plane is the result of some inner cause. DN2 446
The outstanding evidence of the Law of Cause and Effect is the Jewish race. Their aggressive history as narrated in the Old Testament is on a par with the 20th century German accomplishment. The Jews were great aggressors; they despoiled the Egyptians; took the Promised Land by force. EH 263+
The law of cause and effect, called karma, must remain incomprehensible to man until such time as he takes the great 3rd initiation, Transfiguration. EH 15 Karma as we understand it ends at the 6th initiation. DN2 340
The soul works through the centers, which control the glands. Karma works through the glands. EH 623
Very little suffering is attached to karma where there is ignorance. EH 291
The Law of Cause and Effect is of far greater importance than the Law of Rebirth because it necessitates action upon the part of the aspirant. There is nothing he can do about the Law of Rebirth but submit to it. EOH 696
The Law of Cause and Effect can seldom be offset. EOH 62
Karma is not a hard and fast rule. EOH 255 Karma is not an inevitable, inescapable, and a dire happening. It can be offset by: determining the cause, develop the polar opposite of the cause, and practice harmlessness. EH 296 It is possible to interfere with karma. The great Laws have and can be transcended. The Law of Gravitation is frequently offset by aircraft. EH 350 Meditation should increase a man's capacity to discharge his karmic debts by giving clearer vision and judgment. LOM 119
The Law of Retribution is the only law that never errs. TCF 736
Deal with causes and not with effects. DNA 135
In the recognition of the Law of Rebirth will be found the solution of all the problems of humanity, and the answer to much of human questioning. ROC 116
Love brings all earthly karma to an end. DN2 541
Some of Moryas comments on Karma
The law of Causality brings one to the law of karma. Man is exasperated at calamities, but the law of Causality points out to him the sources of same. If schools and churches would proclaim the law of Causality, the consciousness would be then on a higher level. FW3 37
Each one judges according to his consciousness. Verily, one must redeem all mistakes. Remember this law. HIE 219
Scholars, even the erudite ones, do not remember the law of karma. BRO 20 I do not repeat reincarnation for you but for the cowardly ignoramuses who seek to cloak crime with irresponsibility. HE 261
It is deplorable that even people who know about karma continue to create harmful karma for themselves. FW2 211
Each one who condemns the Hierarch must remember that his levity and crime will infect his karma for many ages. By belittling the Hierarch one may condemn oneself and inflict perilous harm on many near ones. It is time to remember this. HIE 39 He who knows the meaning of Karma can understand that a man takes revenge only on himself. FW3 45
Only criminal stupidity thinks that the damage will be done only to the enemy. BRO 122
One who has forgiven someone assumes that he has accomplished something out of the ordinary, whereas he has merely preserved his own karma from complications. The forgiven one thinks that all has been ended; but of course, karma remains ahead of him. BRO 214
People assume that a penny tossed to a beggar expiates a committed murder. So long as co-measurement is not realized, no equilibrium can result. BRO 46 Many of the worthiest actions are impelled by causes from former lives. AUM 39 Karmic payment sometimes forces or compels a man to perform some actions almost without any possibility of success. HE 61
It is much easier not to cause suffering than to treat it afterwards. BRO 269
Distinguish causes from effects. When a subtle consciousness discerns causes, it is usually subjected to ridicule. BRO 137 All chance must be eradicated from life. HIE 109
The dates of sowing and of harvest are not the same. FW3 311
Karmic results are connected with a date or a personality. AY 237
No one knows whom his goodness has helped. AUM 159
Seldom are all the properties of an action good or bad. HE 83
No thought can remain without consequences. HIE 121
Expectation always creates counteraction. HIE 68
Karma will overtake one, but its quality may be altered by a voluntary sacrifice to unknown people. MG2 14
Over half of all earthly encounters take place because of past incarnations. AY 146
It is especially difficult to help people involved in karma. It may be noticed that each good action encounters a certain counteraction from the one to whom help is sent. This particular energy is called the guardian of karma. Those who disturb karma encounter a repulse. Each one can recall how his useful counsels have occasioned a most inexplicable rebuff. BRO 164+
Consider reincarnation scientifically. If you can propound any other structure of the universe, We shall reserve for you a chair as professor of theology and promise you a first-class funeral; for indeed in the eyes of the enlightened you will have already decided to die. MG2 213
