Law of karma - knowing it does not excuse us from trying to help others
"Instead of deciding to do something to help those who are suffering, some so-called spiritual people merely say, ‘Oh, it’s their fate; it’s their karma’. If all it does is give them good reasons for being selfish, it would be better if they had never heard of karma!
Of course it is better for everyone to know the laws of destiny and to understand why certain misfortunes befall them and others too. But when they see people in great difficulty, they should do what they can to help them. You might say, ‘But why try to help them when what is happening was written in their destiny?’ Because, firstly, the efforts you make to help others are never pointless: in certain situations, when the heavenly entities see your compassion and good will, they may let themselves be swayed and alleviate their suffering. And it is also good for you, because by helping others you develop new qualities. It is not easy to be really helpful to others, it’s true, but that doesn’t matter; whatever the circumstances, you should try to help them. If you do not succeed, at least you become more intelligent, stronger and freer yourself."Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov
