गोविन्द भाष्य (श्रील बलदेव विद्याभूषण - अचिन्त्यभेदाभेद वेदान्त ब्रह्मसूत्र भाष्य सटीक)

pious and sinful ārabdha-phala karmic reactions are removed without their having to experience the results. The reason for this is given in the word "anyā" (there is another also). This means, "there is another scriptural quote, a quote revealing that by the Supreme Lord's will ārabdha-phala karmic reactions are sometimes also destroyed". The other scriptural quote is the passage from Kauṣītiki Upaniṣad previously quoted, and the passage from the Śāṭyāyana-śāstra also. This is the meaning: In one place the scriptures say that ārabdha-phala karmic reactions are destroyed only when the person experiences them, and in another place the scriptures say that transcendental knowledge can destroy ārabdha-phala karmic reactions. If these two statements are not to be thought of as contradicting each other, they must be considered to apply to different circumstances. These scriptural statements do not apply to kāmya-karma activities, for sūtras 13 and 14 stated that all pious and sinful karmic reactions are destroyed, and because sins are by definition not kāmya-karma activities. Therefore, for some very dear devotees, who ardently yearn to see the Lord and who are no longer able to bear separation from Him, the Supreme Lord takes away their ārabdha-phala karmic reactions, and distributes them to those persons who are close to those devotees. This will be further described in another adhikaraṇa. Thus the devotee's ārabdha-phala karmic reactions are experience by these people. In this way the rule the Lord has decreed for ārabdha-phala karmic reactions is maintained. Here someone may object: Karmic reactions are formless, and therefore it is not logical to say that they can be given to others as if they were tangible objects. If this is said, then I reply: That is not true. Because He is all-powerful, the Supreme Lord can do anything He wishes, even if what He does is different from what you think is logical. Therefore the Supreme Personality of Godhead can remove the ārabdha-phala karmic reactions of some great devotees who ardently yearn to see Him. In the next sūtra the author refutes the claim that the karmic reactions of one person cannot be given to another. Sūtra 18 yad eva vidyayeti hi yad eva vidyayā iti—Chāndogya Upaniṣad 1.1.10; hi—because. Because of Chāndogya Upaniṣad 1.1.10. Purport by Śrīla Baladeva Vidyābhūṣaṇa
