Dear SR,

 I understand you must have some really bad experience in life which has forced you to make this post.  But please believe me, it is not the end.  May be you are destined to do something strong for which the destiny is preparing you.  There is a proverb, "when going gets tough, the tough gets going"  So be tough and get going.  You  have posted your query here because you believed in Kama of past life.  So there may be some thing bad in your past life which is now getting neutralized think like that. Let me give you an example from Mahabharata which will give you an idea about the impact of past Karma's in one's life.

 After the Mahabharata War was over Dhritarashtra, posed one question to Krishna;

Tell me, Krishna, I had 100 Sons, no one is left even to do my last rites, what did I do to have such a brutal fate?

Krishna replied, some 50 births back you were a hunter and have killed 100 hatchlings of a Krauncha bird and earned its curse to have a similar fate and you paid your debt in this Janma.

Why did I get it in same or next Janma, why it took so long and 50 births to take effect?  asked, Dhritrashtra

Krishna replied with a smile,  Look, having 100 sons needs immense Punya.  You  took 50 births to accumulate that much of Punya to have 100 sons in your life!! and then repaid your debt you made 50 births back.


I think, this story makes it clear that to gain punya is not easy-  it takes 50 births to neutralize the Papa of one birth.  Just imagine the amount of Papas we are doing to day.  How many births it is going to take to neutralize its effects?
