THE WITNESSES

The witnesses, by Javier Figuerola or Haripada dasa

I share this beautiful verse of Srimad-Bhagavatam, 6, 1, 42 which says that Sun, fire, sky, air, demigods, moon, afternoon, day, night, directions, water , The earth and the Supersoul itself witness the activities of the living entity.

Meaning of Srila Prabhupada

Members of some religious groups, especially Christians, do not believe in the reactions of karma. Once we had an argument with a very learned Christian teacher; He argued that, in order to punish someone, it is normal that witnesses should first be questioned of their misdeeds, and then he asked: where are the responsible witnesses that we suffer the reactions of past karma? In this verse, the yamadūtas or lords of death, respond. The conditioned soul believes that he can act slyly, without anyone seeing his sinful activities, but the śāstras or Holy Scriptures tell us that there are many witnesses, among whom are the Sun, fire, sky, air, moon, Demigods, the afternoon, the day, the night, the directions, the water, the earth and the same Supersoul, accompanying the individual soul in his heart. Do you need more witnesses? There are witnesses, and there is also the Supreme Lord; That is why so many living entities rise to the higher planetary systems or degrade to lower planetary systems, even reaching the infernal planets. There is no inconsistency, for the Supreme God organizes and arranges everything perfectly. (End of the meaning of Srila Prabhuada).

The most absurd thing in this world is that people think that we can do what we want and that nothing is going to happen to us. There are laws made by men and there are laws made by God or Krishna, laws made by men are imperfect and those made by God or Krishna are perfect, for example if you kill an ant or a fly, in the laws of Men do not pass, but in the laws of God or Krishna you will have to have a karmic reaction to do that.
