Final Term !!!

Once a murderer was caught and sentenced to imprisonment for ten years. Assuming himself to be clever, he escaped from prison and ran away to a nearby forest. Then on, he lived the life of a fugitive, fearing arrest every second.

He was caught again and put behind bars. Had he only stayed back in prison the first time, he might have managed to be released sooner on account of good conduct. But his foolish escape landed him up with a longer sentence.

So it is with life. We have been assigned the bondage of worldly life to absolve ourselves of our karmas due to our actions across births. If we run away from this, we will be only extending our punishment to more births. God provides us with whatever is necessary for life - - food, clothing and shelter. When our term is over, He Himself will send His representative to free us from the bondage of this prison. So think good, be good and do good till the Good God takes over us as His.
