Our consciousness is just like steel

There is an old saying, ‘As you sow, so you reap.’ Auspicious deeds bring beneficial results, while evil deeds bring harmful results. All living beings experience individually, the fruits of their past karmas. Nobody can escape the results of their acquired karmas. We must be answerable for our deeds.
According to Jain scriptures, the embodied soul attracts and gets bonded with karmic matter in the form of ultra-fine particles present everywhere in the universe, on account of actions by mind, speech and body or through passion. These karmas may show their results at any time during the life span of an individual or may be after that as well.
