Karma

Any act performed without discrimination will have serious repercussions.  Would not poison kill upon consuming it even unknowingly?  So there is nothing call innocent or run away from the sins committed by a person.  Knowingly or unknowingly, if an action is performed, he is bound to get the reaction.  That the laws of nature.  No one, indeed, how big or small, intelligent or unintelligent, faithful or unfaithful, devotion or without devotion, has to bear the fruits of his actions by himself.  No Guru or God can remove the effect of our actions and has to bear for ourselves.  That is the laws of karma.
