Karma is a fascinating fact about life that fellow human beings seldom notice. Delving too much into it may not give you peace of mind but it is good to know that you are accountable for your wrong doings. I am going to take an example of how a 500 rupee note travel between various parties and Karma’s role in the background. This blog is a fictional one but the core idea to come up with the topic came from real life incidents.
Consider a 500 rupee note in the hands of a construction worker. In his leisure time just for fun he may write some funny wordings in the note which is basically wrong and against the norms of RBI but he does that purely to enjoy the fun in the spur of the moment. Let us look into how the note travels from this point. Construction worker obviously wants to get rid of the 500 rupee note since he knows he is running a risk of note falling under ‘Non acceptance’ category and he chooses a busy place such as Railway station where the clerk hardly have any time to have a sip of water. Now the note is with Railways and as part of its monthly settlements, Railways pay vendor dues (Catering Company) and the 500 rupee note travels from Railways to Catering Company. Catering company as part of paying wages to its Employees gives 500 rupee note to one of its employee’s hands. That employee who got the note is worried how to dispose the note and hence chooses a grocery store which is kind of busy one to get rid of the note. Grocery store in turn deposits money into the bank as part of its regular daily routine and though Bank is not happy with the 500 rupee notes still takes it. Bank as part of refilling its ATMs around the city takes the cash and deposits in various ATM machines and the note in question gets into an ATM machine in a proper residential area. One gentleman living in the neighborhood draws money from ATM in order to pay school fees for his toddler son. School now has the 500 rupee note and as part of the settling bills for a recently concluded school day function gives money to an Event management company. Event Management Company has multiple partners and one of its partners owns a pawn broker business where they deal with quite a lot of local workforce as their clients. Now our dude Construction worker who is in need of money mortgages some of his jewels in turn for money to this particular pawn broker and he receives cash much of his surprise to know that a 2000 rupee note he received had some funny drawings and scribbling.
That is Karma explained through a 500 rupee note. Karma gets back at you upon time with both ‘Principal + Interest’ concept and construction worker what he did for 500 rupee note got backfired and had the same treatment for 2000 rupee note. Now imagine of the very many wrongdoings we either directly or indirectly deal in day to day life and imagine its ramifications. The little scratch or dent in your car which ends up you paying $$$ to fix the issue may be indirectly related to some financial wrongdoing in the past and in the process life teaches a lesson and makes you grounded. Karma is a much bigger force to reckon with and the key thing that we got to acknowledge is ‘Karma is the bitter truth’ of life.
