Karma does not punish, it balances. If you walk the intended path, it is not activated. When you step off the path, it is activated to the degree required to get you to return to the intended path. That is generally done either through discomfort or through forcing an understanding of the other side of the coin, which is also usually painful or unpleasant. But the effects of karma do not have to be painful or unpleasant, we just typically refuse to pay attention or learn any other way. When you pay attention, and act with wisdom, karma is much less unpleasant, and may in fact be negated altogether for certain things. That is why the Masters always say... "Wisdom erases karma."
