achievement of human birth which includes in it various other
        fortunous things like a precious life, strength, power, wealth,
        respect, good food, a high intelligence, family, servents, good
        neighbours, etc. How can each of this Punyakarma cheat us ?
        It is quite evident in the world around us.

        Eg.

        ∙  Laying  back  on  the  punya  of  this  precious  life,  suddenly
           this life is snatched away !
        ∙  Testing the long life of wealth, you are enjoying a luxurious
           life and in no time you become wealth less.

        ∙  You  have  complete  faith  in  your  physical  strength  and
           unexpectedly  you  are  afflicted  by  some  disease  or  an
           accident and you end up losing your strength.

        Thus it implies that each of the above punya karmas come
        alongwith  a  trust  breaking  factor.  Every  living  creature
        becomes a victim of this breach of trust and thus lives in
        a miserable state.
        Then, now you have to decide that if such break of trust
        done by one Punya karmas really pinches us, then how can
        we happily live in this world whose happiness is completely
        dependent on favourable Punya karmas ?

        Imagine  that  an  employer  has  25  employees  working  under
        him who are all untrustworthy. Now, will he be able to stay
        at peace ?

        Then, how can we live happily ? From whom are we deriving
        happiness ?  Wealth,  wife,  property,  relatives  or  your  own
        body ? Nothing is trustworthy. In trivial matters unexpectedly
        your wife or children get upset, wealth is lost or your property
        is  spoilt.  Someday  your  head  starts  aching,  sometimes  your
        back and suddenly one day your leg gets fractured. Suddenly
