What we have done will be done to us.

God grants our desires and punishes our actions.

Our thoughts, words, and actions generate positive or negative effects, which lead to good or bad consequences. It is the actions committed in a being's past life that determine the conditions of their next birth or reincarnation, and the suffering they will have to endure.

Every good deed we do will be reaped as blessings, and every evil deed we do will also be reaped, but of the exact same nature, in our next life in the form of suffering similar to that which we inflicted upon one or more victims.

“You shall not kill,” is the commandment we have received from God.

By this commandment, God asks us not to harm any living being: all human beings without exception, white, black, yellow, red, mixed-race, all land and aquatic animals, and all plants in their diversity.

In truth, all human bodies without exception, all animal and plant forms, contain a spiritual soul, which gives life and animates the body in which it resides. Each of us is a spiritual soul, and it is not the interest of the body that should be sought, but that of the soul, for while the body is perishable, the soul is eternal, immortal. There is no reason, no justification for taking anyone's life.

Karma, or Infallible Divine Justice.

Karma is nothing other than infallible justice. It is the law of nature, the law of action and reaction, or the law of cause and effect, according to which all material actions, good or bad, inevitably lead to consequences, which bind their perpetrator ever more tightly to material existence and the cycle of repetitive reincarnations, accompanied by suffering.

Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, asked Ezekiel to teach the people the art of penance and repentance for their sins, so that they might change, correct their guilty acts, and become better in accordance with divine law. This atonement is therefore necessary, and it must correspond to the gravity of the sins committed.

All human beings are subject to divine law, and no one can escape it. Therefore, let us control our thoughts, words, and actions, for they generate effects that will lead to consequences in the form of misfortune and suffering, for which we ourselves are responsible. We are the source of our own suffering.

We may escape human justice, but let us know that it is impossible to escape divine justice, for it renders to each person the consequences of their own actions. This is true justice.

Therefore, let us obey God and live according to His teachings. Let us love one another—white, black, yellow, red, mixed-race—but also all land and water animals, and all plants, from blades of grass to tall trees. Let us do no harm to anyone.
