Sometimes life feels unfair without a clear reason. Patterns repeat. Efforts do not give results. Relationships break the same way again and again. Fear appears without memory. In Sanatan thought, these moments are not random. They are often seen as karma speaking, not as punishment, but as unfinished lessons waiting to be understood.
Karma is not only about what we do in this lifetime. It is a long memory carried by the soul. Lord Vishnu, the preserver of the universe, is believed to guide souls through this memory with balance, patience, and correction. Where Shiva dissolves, Vishnu sustains and realigns. His temples are therefore not places of escape from karma, but spaces where karma slowly loosens its grip.
