It is only when you recognise your own faults that you begin to understand the ways of the Divine. What we witness today is the tendency to forget one's faults and go about blaming God for one's sufferings. Every action, however small or trivial, has its reaction. Nothing happens without a cause. Every object has its reflection. The Lord awards fruits according to ones actions. Good actions earn good returns. Bad actions result in bad consequences. That is why the Lord is described as Karmaphala pradhaata (the dispenser of the fruits of action).
