Q: Please, Master,
I would like to ask You, my mother and I have gotten some children
to adopt who are orphans, and we want to get more. But people in Brazil
from certain religions have told us that this is wrong because you
can't change the karma of those children. How can I know if I am doing
the right thing?
M: You
are doing the right thing when it makes you feel good. (Thank You!)
When your heart tells you it's good and it makes others happy, just
do it; and don't worry about the karma. Jesus died; He probably didn't
like it, but He felt good doing it. Because He did it for humankind,
for His disciples, He didn't care.
Q: So we aren't
causing problems or trouble for the children?
M: If
they need you and you feel good and you can afford it, just do it
if it makes you feel good. Because you also have to be able to live.
If you want to adopt them and you can take care of them, then adopt
as many as you can take care of and feel good about it. God never
forbids you to do things like that. Even if you take their karma,
so what? We are here to take karma. If we can, we do it, and we aren't
scared.
Q: Thanks a lot.
M: Yes, do it;
no problem.
