Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The old scriptures speak of sin and virtue.
They say souls are born into heaven and hell, over and over.
Keeping score of right and wrong is not the same as meeting the One.
The Shaastras and Vedas, old holy books of India, speak of sin and virtue. They say souls are born again and again, into heaven and into hell. It is a huge list of good marks and bad marks.
Picture a report card that you study every night. You can know every mark on it by heart. That still does not make you learn. In the same way, counting sin and virtue can keep you going round the very circle it describes. What breaks the circle is meeting the One.
Is keeping score of right and wrong the same as actually being transformed?
