ACTS OF PROCREATION

I thought the resulting acts of procreation were interesting. I know that through the transmigration of souls, your station in life ,according to Hindu mythology, is result of past lives. We also see that life is the result of the actions others take in this life as well. In The Mahabarata we find that Pandu is pale because of an act of frightened sex and Dhritarashta is born blind because Ambika closes her eyes during the act. WE also see that Dhritarashta is blind to many things in life and Pandu cannot even consummate his marriage because of the curse for killing deer in the act of intercourse. Because Pandu is not the legitimate father, is the resulting conflict between the Kouravas and Pandavas the result of rightful heirs (rightful births) to the Dhritarashta empire?

Reaping What WE Sow: Making the right or wrong choices?

Karna seemed to live his life the epitome of adharma. His abandonment at birth leads him to a deceitful life through no fault of his own. As a result he aligns himself with the enemy of his true family, the Pandavas. Even when acknowledging the Pandavas as his family, Karna rejects them as his mother Kunti rejected him. Karna exhibits an uncompromising loyalty to the evil Duryodhana represents. Karna's dergradation of Drupadi and accomplice in the cheating dice game further shows his wrongful choices. As a result, Karna dies from an act of adharma when Ajuna kills Karna who cannot defend himself. Would we have done the same? Are there some hurts we cannot forgive and how does that affect our karma?
