Are you saying that, prarabdha karma fala just “happens” without
“experience”, from this
being continuously established in jnAna, standpoint ???

As otherwise, prarabdha karma phala is experienced by Jivan-mukta, as  Sri
Shankara Bhagavatpada says it clearly in his BSB 4.1.19


इतरक्षपणाधिकरणम्।।4.1.19।।

अनारब्धकार्ययोः पुण्यपापयोर्विद्यासामर्थ्यात्क्षय उक्तः। इतरे तु
आरब्धकार्ये *पुण्यपापे उपभोगेन* क्षपयित्वा ब्रह्म संपद्यते तस्य तावदेव चिरं
यावन्न विमोक्ष्येऽथ संपत्स्ये इति ब्रह्मैव सन्ब्रह्माप्येति इति च
एवमादिश्रुतिभ्यः। ननु सत्यपि सम्यग्दर्शने यथा प्राग्देहपाताद्भेददर्शनं
द्विचन्द्रदर्शनन्यायेनानुवृत्तम् एवं पश्चादप्युनुवर्तेत न निमित्ताभवात्।*
उपभोगशेषक्षपणं* हि तत्रानुवृत्तिनिमित्तम् न च तादृशमत्र किंचिदस्ति। ननु
अपरः कर्माशयोऽभिनवमुपभोगमारप्स्यते न तस्य दग्धबीजत्वात्
मिथ्याज्ञानावष्टम्भं हि कर्मान्तरं देहपात
उपभोगान्तरमारभेत तच्च मिथ्याज्ञानं सम्यग्ज्ञानेन दग्धम् इत्यतः साध्वेतत्
आरब्धकार्यक्षये विदुषः कैवल्यमवश्यं भवतीति।।

This Sutra  says that the Prârabdha works are destroyed through fruition,
and though till then the knower of Brahman has to be in the relative world
as a Jivan-mukta, yet when these are exhausted by being worked out, he
attains oneness with Brahman at death. He no longer sees any diversity,
owing to the absence of any cause like the Prârabdha, and since all works
including the Prârabdha are destroyed at death, he attains oneness with
Brahman. [trans by Swami Vireswarananda]
