The 4 Enemies, 3 Stupefactions, & 3 Deadly Traps #178
What is the cause for the karmas that come to people, particularly of the negative variety? This chart enumerates three collections of specific problems that have been noted by the luminaries, and that are both common to the world, and at the root of the many terrible repercussions that visit the unawakened soul due to wayward thoughts and ill-considered actions.

Cause & Effect in the Mind #140
Knowledge available in Western scientific circles con cerning cause and effect is limited mostly to physical bodies in space, whether space it be space on Earth or outer space. There is no provision made for inner space. This limits the human mind in its efforts to find the sources for what occurs to embodied beings as a result of their actions on the physical plane of existence. Known as “karma,” the results of actions perpetrated in space and time originate in the mind; repercussions coming to the soul do not just appear as a matter of randomness or luck, etc. Therefore, the inwardly quassative being will come to find that “thought is the father to the deed,” as a wise Western saying evinces. Knowing of this direct correlation between thought, action, and karma, leaves the pathway open for the spiritual aspirant to pursue and attain to freedom from unforeseen and undesirable effects springing from subtle causes.
The Four Kinds of Karma #13
Unknown to most beings, cause and effect and the suffering it brings begins in the mind, i.e., “The thought is father to the deed.” Even more obscure of knowledge is the fact that karmas is at the root of a chain of lifetimes that beings suffer and enjoy, interminably. A complete study and ongoing meditation upon the laws of Karma will reveal its four types and four shades, clearing up many of the mind’s doubts and helping the seeker of truth attain to freedom from the weights of cause and effect.
