Quote:
In actuality, he was extremely responsible. In one phrase � �As you sow, so shall you reap� � Jesus stated the law of karma quite succinctly. He had no intention of getting away with wrongdoing but instead pointed to a higher spiritual rule: your actions today define your future tomorrow. Regardless of whether an act is deemed good or bad, this higher rule can�t be sidestepped. Those who think it can have not looked deep enough. By stage four there is enough insight to realize that all past actions have a way of coming home to roost. This dynamic turns out to be more important than identifying sin.
What, then, would forgiveness of sin amount to? How do you redeem your soul?


1. What does 'it' mean?
2. Could you paraphrase 'Those who think it can have not looked deep enough.' for me?

Thanks.

Those who think IT can: means those who believe this higher rule can be sidestepped, etc...
