The theory of karma espoused in Indian scriptures applies only to those who operate at the material level of things. As they start growing out of the operational level and give up attachment, as well as aversion, altogether and perform all actions with a sense of duty, maintaining their equipoise in success and failure, they get released from the bondage of their own actions. With such a balance in the account, the application rewards them with higher privileges. Such souls end up easing the iron grip of karma on their lives. Unless they start abusing their privileges, they end up experiencing the bliss of true freedom.
The sanchita karmas of such realised souls could be declared to be inoperative in nature. With each step of reincarnation, their personal karma operating system and the core karma application would get deactivated.
Indeed, the proposition of enabling one to transcend the cycle of karma is a unique selling proposition of the Bhagavad Gita.
