Part 4.4 - Actions on specific time
[Full title: 痴别诲腻峁単补 闯测辞迟颈峁 and Karman (4): Actions on specific time]
The transmigration of the self is said to be due to acts and bondage to time.[1] And destiny is made a factor operating with time which decide the fate of earthly existence of man. Thereby time in relation with past-Karma decide the period of fruition[2] of action whereas human endowed with free will possess the independence of action. Cosmos being passive and non-intelligent is rendered non-active in terms of free will.
Cosmic activity with aid of time is utilized as a standard means for performance of prescribed actions and also for reading of the past ones. Fruition of action on appropriate time is made the quality of the cosmos, whereas man is given an injunction to act on prescribed times derived from the cosmic material by the culture thereby making work on appropriate times a necessity for an ideal future.
Thus, the limitation of perception is to human and not to time and cosmos. Whereas the limitation of independent action is to time and cosmos and not to human. Therefore the mutual qualities of cosmic time with its ability of perception and human with his independence to act are brought together by the culture to work on human and cosmic future and which forms the basis of the co-relation of 痴别诲腻峁単补 闯测辞迟颈峁 and Karma in the literature.
