Karma Yoga It is path chosen primarily by those of an outgoing/action-oriented nature. It purifies the heart by teaching the aspirant to act selflessly, without thinking of any personal gain or reward. By detaching yourself from the fruits of your actions and offering them up to God, you learn to sublimate the ego. 16 October 2018 Vivekananda Kendra Kaushalam - Hyderabad 4
According to Bhagavad Gita , “ Karma Yoga ” is the selfless devotion of all your inner as well as outer activities as the Sacrifice to the Lord of all works, offered to the eternal as the Master of all the Soul’s energies and austerities. Each and every Karma begets an immediate result called Karma Phala and leaves behind a S amaskara or deep impression on the Chitta . 16 October 2018 Vivekananda Kendra Kaushalam - Hyderabad 5
Karma Yoga Karma refers to ‘actions’ which include both overt actions and inner experiences. 16 October 2018 Vivekananda Kendra Kaushalam - Hyderabad 6
Karma Yoga The scriptures say even the Gods cannot escape the Karma Phala . But the real problem maker for man is the Samskara . 16 October 2018 Vivekananda Kendra Kaushalam - Hyderabad 7
Man becomes free from Samskara only after it has fetched its fruits/consequences. The fruit or consequence may be in the form of another Karma (action or experience) which in turn creates further Samskara and a further Karma . In other words, whatever karma we perform, we have to pay for the consequences – enjoy the pleasure if the Karma is good, or suffer the pain, if the Karma is bad. “As you sow, so shall you reap”. 16 October 2018 Vivekananda Kendra Kaushalam - Hyderabad 8 Karma Yoga
