Karma
From Bahai9
No man is at rest or so blissful in this world as to seem to pluck the fruit of bygone anguish[edit]
"When thou lookest about thee with a perceptive eye, thou wilt note that on this dusty earth all humankind are suffering. Here no man is at rest as a reward for what he hath performed in former lives; nor is there anyone so blissful as seemingly to pluck the fruit of bygone anguish."
