August 7, Shivabalayogi Tapas Anniversary Day, Sun August 7, 1961
Deepa’s Message
This is a true story of a real person. I never met him in "person" but his close devotees have been in my house and I have hugged them. He WAS in my living room coming through one of his very close devotees. It was a trance-like, kind of channeling a situation called, "Bhava Samadhi".
One Swami, Shivabalananda went into meditation/trance and Shivabalayogi entered the space/room. Divine presence was there. I still have my own teacher/Guru, but was able
to experience this unusual situation. These people were sent to me to help me with meditation. I appreciate and love them very much.
Today I remember the original teacher in the following story. I'm setting up a small altar in the garden and meditating out there today. (You knew I was Woo Woo, but here's more you can add to the story. This is real and it is part of my real life. Shivabalananda and his wife, Amma Vidya have stayed with me at least 4 different times and we have meditated many times together. They currently live in Bangalore, India.)
Jai Shivabalananda
Jai Shivabalayogi
"Tapas Siddhi Anniversary'
On this day 69 years ago ...
On August 7th of 1949, God in the form of a yogi, Lord Shiva, manifested to a fourteen-year old South Indian village boy named Sathyaraju, made him sit, touched him between the eyebrows, and tapped him on the head. The boy immediately experienced ‘samadhi’, the state of enlightenment in which the mind remains absolutely still. He was transformed. meditated in 'samadhi' twenty-three hours every day for eight years, then at least twelve hours daily for another four years, a spiritual penance called ‘tapas’. There were periods of months at a time when he did not return to ordinary consciousness. Finally, He attained God realization and emerged from his twelve-year tapas exactly 57 years ago - on August 7th of 1961. He became ‘Shivabalayogi’. 07th August has since been celebrated as ‘Tapas Siddhi’ day by His devotees all over the world."
"23 hours every day for 8 years, then at least 12 hours every day for 8 years. Take that in...
This happened.

LET. THY, NAME BE EVER. ON OUR LIPS,
LET US ABIDE. IN THEE,FOR EVER. AND EVER, DESIRE LESS ACTION
THE REALIZED HUMAN BEING WHO SEES. IN THE MIDST OF ACTION,,
IWHO IS. YOKED,”
A. DISCIPLE ONCE ASKED BHAGAVAN WHO WAS THEN AT. SKANDASRAMAM WHAT IS MEANT BY DESIRELESS. ACTION?
BHAGAVAN DID NOT GIVE A REPLY BUT KEPT QUIET,
A LITTLE LATER HE WENT OUT FOR A WALK,ACCOMPANIED BY THE
QUESTIONER AND SOME OTHERS ,BHAGAVAN SAW A BRANCH OF A TREE,
CUT IT AND SPENT ONE HOUR SHAPING IT INTO A NICE WALKING STICK,,
AT ABOUT THAT TIME. AN ELDERLY SHEPHERD,WHO HAD NO WALKING STICK CAME THAT WAY SLOWLY AND WITH DIFFICULTY BHAGAVAN. GAVE HIM THE STICK WHICH HE JUST MADE AND SAID, ACTION IS OVER, SO ALSO DESIRELESS ACTION, AND THUS
SHOWED BY EXAMPLE WHAT THE PHRASE MEANT,
ACCORDING TO FATHER. BEDE GRIFFITHS THE TAO. TE CHING SAYS THAT THE POWER WHICH IS THE FIRST PRINCIPLE OF ALL CREATION
IS ETERNALLY INACTIVE , YET IT LEAVES NOTHING UNDONE
THIS IS PARADOXICAL THE MEANING IS THAT EVERY ACTION COMES FROM AN INNER CENTER OF QUIET PEACE ,WE ACT THROUGH THE BODY AND THE BODY IS
CONTROLLED BY THE MIND, BUT BOTH BODY AND MIND ARE TO BE CONTROLLED FROM AN INNER CENTER OF REALITY WHICH IS PERFECTLY INACTIVE AND STILLIT IS STATE OF CONCENTRATION OF STILLNESS AT THE CENTER,THE INNER BEING IS PERFECTLY STILL. PERFECTLY HARMONIOUS,
ACTION FLOWS,THIS HAS BEEN LARGELY LOST TODAY THE WORLD IS SO FILLED WITH COMPULSIVE ACTIVITY WHICH HAS NO FUNDAMENTAL REST,
ONCE WE LOSE THE CALM CENTER. ACTION TAKES OVER AND WE BECOME BOUND,BY OUR ACTIONS,THIS IS WHAT HAS BEEN HAPPENNEDWITH TECHNOLOGY AND THE WHOLE INDUSTRIAL SYSTEM IT CANNOT BE CONTROLLED IT HAS RELEASED FORCES WHICH CONTROLL US, REDUCING US TO SLAVES,OF OUR MACHINES,
THE TENDENCY IN THE WEST HAS BEEN TO ELIMINATE SO THAT HUMANITY CAN CONTROL THE UNIVERSE, THE UNIVERSE IS EVER ACTIVE,
ACTION IS NECESSARY. EVERYONE HAS TO BE ACTIVE,ON ACCOUNT OF THE VERY STRUCTURE OF THE UNIVERSE,

DIVINE. BROTHERS AND MORE DIVINE SISTERS. LEADING DAILY MEDITATIVE LIFE FOR SELF REALIZATION AND GOD REALIZATION IN THE PRESENT LIFE ITSELF.
TODAY WE ENJOY. WHAT IS KARMA YOGA? BY. DR,V.V. B.RAMARAO.
BHAGAVAD GITA. TEACHES HOW. TO ACHIEVE ETERNAL HAPPINESS ATTMA. JNANA WHILE LIVING AS A. HOUSE HOLDER, EFFICIENTLY. FACING THE DAILY PROBLEMS THAT CAUSE HAPPINESS AND SORROW, withoutGETTING EMOTIONALLY STUCK IN THEM,
BHAGAVAD GITA. EMERGED TO. PROVIDE GUIDANCE TO EVERYONE,
WHO GETS INTO DEEP. SORROW,AND FINDS IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO GET OUT OF IT, AT TIMES ONE GETS. SO DEJECTED. THAT HE GOES TO THE EXTENT OF. COMMITTING. SUICIDE AS HE FEELS IT. IMPOSSIBLE TO BEAR, SUCH A SORROW,
WE SEE SOME STUDENTS. WHO FAIL IN AN EXAMINATION OR SO CALLED LOVE AFFAIR OR SOME WHO LOST HEAVILY IN THEIR INVESTMENTS AND SOME WHO COULD NOT MAINTAIN THEIR FAMILIES, FALL INTO THIS TRAP, OVERPOWERED BY THEIR EMOTIONS THEY LOSE THEIR ABILITY TO THINK AND ANALYZE A SITUATION,THEY FORGET THEIR DUTY AND RESPONSIBILITIES, A LADY WHO LOST HER BELOVED HUSBAND IN SPITE OF BEST MEDICAL CARE MAY COMMIT SUICIDE,IF SHE IS NOT PROPERLY GUIDED,
ARJUNA. WHO COULD PLEASE LORD SHIVA BY HIS PENANCE
PREFERED TO GET KILLED BY HIS OPPOSING KINSMEN, THAN TO KILL THEM OUT OF MOHA,(. DELUSION).
GREAT PERSONALITIES LIKE HANUMAN AND SITA DEVI DEPICTED IN SRIMAD RAMA YANA, WERE NOT EXCE PTIONS AS THEY TOO THOUGHT OF COMMITTING SUICIDE WHEN THEY COULD NOT ACHIEVE WHAT THEY WANTED, HANUMAN DECIDED TO DIE IN SRI LANKA, IF HE FAILED TO LOCATE SITA DEVI, IN RAVANAS. HOUSE,LATER HE ANALYZED AND CONCLUDED THAT HE SHOULD STRIVE TO SUCCEED TO ENJOY HAPPINESS,IN FUTURE THAN TO. SUCCUMB TO THE WEAKNESS OF MIND, AFTER RAVANA THREATENED TO KILL SITA DEVI, IF SHE SHOULD NOT AGREE TO MARRY HIM,
IN A PERIOD OF TWO MORE MONTHS,SITA DEVI GOT DEJECTED LOST THE HOPE THAT RAMA WOULD RESCUE HER,AND WANTED TO END HER LIFE,
ONE SHOULD. UNDERSTAND THAT ENDING OF HIS LIFE. DOES NOT END THE SUFFERING, ONE HAS TO UNDERGO WOULD HAUNT HIM IN FUTURE,
ANGER IS DANGEROUS, GREAT PEOPLE CONTROL THEIR ANGER WITH THERE ANALYTICAL AND DECISION MAKING POWER,AS FIRE IS EXTINGUISHED BY WATER,
DISILLUSIONED PEOPLE TAKE EXTREME STEPS AS THEY ARE NOT TRAINED TO FACE FAILURES BOLDLY, AS KARMA YOGA TEACHES
KARMA MEANS. ASSIGNED DUTY , YOGA MEANS. A METHOD OF PERFORMING THE KARMA WITH EASE, EFFICIENCY, CONFIDENCE ,AND SATISFACTION, WITHOUT GETTING WORRIED ABOUT THE RESULTS, OR POSSIBLE SUCCESSES,OR FAILURES,
THE MAINE PRINCIPLE OF KARMA YOGA IS TO SUBMIT TO ALL THE DUTIES AS ORDAINED BY THE DIVINE POWER AND TO PERFORM THEM WITHOUT ANY GREED, DESIRE OR SELF INTEREST,,,
EVERYONE CRAVES FOR HAPPINESS, HOWEVER TEMPORARY IT IS, HE USES HIS INTELLECT TO ANALYZE THE CONSEQUENCES,
NONE CAN ESCAPE DOING HIS ASSIGNED DUTY, LORD SRI KRISHNA
EXPLAINS ONE SHOULD HAVE HIS DUTIES PERFORMED TIMELY,
BLESSINGS,SHIVABALANANDA AMMA,

TODAY WE ENJOY. NISKAMA ——-THE PHILOSOPHY

SERVICE. BEFORE. SELF. SHOULD BE THE MOTTO OF. LIFE,
THIS NEW DIMENSION OF THIS NEW CONCEPT OF SERVICE STEMS FROM
THE GREAT VISION OF. OUR. ANCIENT. SAGES,—-ANUBHUTI
A. PAROKSANU BHUTI THIS VISION IS THAT. THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE IS. PERVADED BY TH E UNIVERSAL SPIRIT, THE ONE GREAT. COSMIC. SPIRIT ENVELOPES INTERPENETRATES AND PERVADES. THIS ENTIRE UNIVERSE OF NAME NAMES AND FORMS,
IT FILLS. EVERY SPECK OF SPACE IT FEELS AND INDWELLS AND ENLIVENS THE ATOM OF MATTER, THE WHOLE WORLD IS FILLED. WITH. CONSCIOUS NESS
THIS IS THE WAY TO VISION, AND A LOGICAL DEVELOPMENT OF THEIR EXPERIENCE.BECAME TIME TESTED AND WAS GIVEN TO US GENERATION AFTER GENERATION
THEY DISCOVERED THE PRESENCE OF THIS ESSENCE AS THE COSMIC TRUTH,
THEY. THUS EXPERIENCED THE PRESENCE OF THIS EXISTENCE
DIVINE ANIMATING THE GREAT FACT HE IS THEREFORE THE COMMON
CONSCIOUSNESS THAT MELTS ALL,EXISTENCE INTO ONE HOMOGENEOUS,
WHOLE,YOU ARE IN ACTUAL FACT ADORING THIS DIVINE BEING.
THAT IS THE LIVING REALITY PRESENT IN ALL BEINGS, WE HAVE TO OPEN OUR EYES TO THIS VISION,
SERVICE IS MORE THAN A MERE SOCIAL PROCESS IT IS NOT JUST A SOCIAL ACTIVITY CONFINED TO THIS EARTH PLANE OR TO THIS MATERIAL WORLD,IT HAS SIGNIFICANCE AND MEANING UPON A HIGHER DIMENSION,OF THE SPIRIT, WHEN YOU SERVE MAN
YOU ACTUALLY SERVE THE GOD,HIDDEN IN MAN, DIVINITY IMMANENT IN ALL CREATION,
SO SERVICE OF MAN IS. ISVARA ARADHANA,(. WORSHIP OF GOD,)
IT IS A SPIRITUAL PROCESS,
ThEREFORE LIVED IN THIS MANNER AND ENGAGED IN WITH THIS AWARENESS AND IN THIS SPIRIT I SERVE MY FELLOW BEINGS AND CREATURES,I ADORE GOD,PRESENT IN THE HEARTS OF ALL BEINGS. THIS IS ADORATION TO ME,
THIS IS A SPIRITUAL SADHANA TO ME,WHILE ENGAGED IN THIS OUTER SERVICE, YOU HAVE THE AWARENESS WITHIN AND DO IT WITH THIS IS AS A SPIRITUAL SADHANA,TO ME AND TO US,THEN YOU BECOME RICHLY BLESSED WITHIN THE DIMENSION OF YOUR SPIRITUAL LIFE,THEN YOU WILL EXPERIENCE THAT GOD IS LOOKING AT YOU.

ToDAY WE ENJOY. IDEAL KARMA YOGI ——-SAINT. FRANCIS,
IN MEDIEVAL. EUROPE. SAINT. FRANCIS WAS THE LIVING EMBODIMENT OF VIRTUES LIKE. ADHERENCE TO. TRUTH , LOVE. OF. NON—POSSESSIVENESS
SELFLESS SERVICE, RENUNCIATION AND MERCY,
HE WAS BORN IN 1 II82,A.D.IN THE CITY OF. ASSISI SIENA ITALY ,HIS FAMILY WAS VERY RICH, AND HE WAS BROUGHT UP IN ALL LUXURY, BUT IN THAT ENVIRONMENT HE COULD NOT FIND THE PEACE OF THE SELF, IT DAWNED ON HIM THAT HE SHOULD COURT A LIFE OF POVERTY AND TREAD THE PATH OF TRUTH,
FINDING HIM BEGGING IN THE STREETS OF ASISI THE PUBLIC USED TO INSULT HIM, CHASE HIM LIKE THEY CHASE DOGS, DERIDING HIM BY REMARKING THAT DOES NOT HE FEEL ASHAMED TO BEG. DESPITE BELONGING TO SUCH A RICH AND NOBLE FAMILY BUT ALL THESE HAS NO EFFECT ON HIM AND ST.FRANCIS WOULD NEVER EVER BE READY TO GIVE UP HIS VOW OF POVERTY,
POVERTY BECOMES AN EFFECTIVE SADHANA THE PATH OF GOD,-SELF. REALIZATION,IF IT IS LIVED IN LIFE, IN A PRACTICAL WAY,
TO BE POSSESSED OF NOTHING WAS HIS BIRTHBORN ASSET, .LEAVING ANYTHING ONE SELF AND DEPENDING ONLY ON GOD,”S. GRACE,IS THE HIGHEST AND MOST SUBLIME FORM OF HIS VOW OF POVERTY ,BY THE DEVOTED SERVICE OF THE POOR, FELLOWMEN,
THE SPIRIT OF KEEPING THE SELF NON POSSESSED WAXES,
AN INCIDENT PRIOR TO THE ACCEPTANCE OF LIFE OF A RECLUSE OF ST.FRANCIS IS NARRATED AT THAT TIME HE WAS THE FOREMOST AMONG MEN OF GENEROUS,AND CHARITABLE DISPOSITION, NO BEGGAR WHO CAME BEFORE HIM WENT EMPTY HANDED ONCE HE WAS SITTING IN HIS SHOP,AND WENT IN SEARCH OF A BEGGAR, SUDDENLY A BEGGAR APPEARED BEFORE THE SHOP, HE MISSED THE BEGGAR, AND SO THE BEGAR WENT AWAY, HE LEFT HIS SHOP AND WENT IN SEARCH OF THE BEGGAR, GOODS WORTH LAKHS WERE LEFT OPEN ,AND UNCARED FOR
HIS WHOLE WORRY WAS FOR THE BEGGAR, IN THE END HE FOUND THE BEGGAR AND IN A HUMBLE TONE SAID, BROTHER I HAVE MADE A GREAT MISTAKE
BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING MONEY ARE SUCH THAT PEOPLE BECOME BLIND WITH GREED ON PURSUING THAT, YOU GAVE ME AN OPPORTUNITY TO SERVE, WHILE I MISSED IT DUE TO MY FOLLY(INADVERTENT ) FRANCIS GAVE GAVE THE BEGGAR ALL HIS MONEY AND EVEN MADE THE BEGGAR WEAR HIS COAT,
FRANCIS BREATHED THE AIR OF RELIEF AND ATTAINED GREAT HAPPINESS,HIS HEART HAD ATTENDED BLESSEDNESS 0N THE UNSELFISH SERVICE OF GOD, IN THE DISGUISE OF THE BEGGAR,
SUCH TYPE OF CHARITY HAS BEEN SAID TO BE SATTVIKA BY THE LORD IN THE GITA,
AN EPITHET OF ST.FRANCIS BROTHER OF LEPERS.

DIVINE BROTHERS AND MORE DIVINE SISTERS IN DAILY MEDITATIVE LIFE. FOR SELF REALIZATION. AND GOD REALIZATION IN THE PRESENT LIFE UNDER THE GRACE AND BLESSINGS OF EVER LIVING GURUDEVA SWAMIJI AND HIS GURU LORD. SHIVA AND MATA PARVATIJI.
TODAY WE ENJOY KARMA YOGA ——THE EVENTUAL PATH FOR SELF REALIZATION BY. T.R. CHAMOLI
THE WORD KARMA. ORIGINATED FROM SANSKRIT ROOT KR” MEANING TO DO, TO WORK ETC, KARMA MEANS WORD OR ACTION,AND NOT FATE, AS IT IS POPULARLY KNOWN, IT INCLUDES PHYSICAL AS WELL AS MENTAL ACTIONS,
YOGA IS GENERALLY UNDERSTOOD AS THE ACTIVITY OF CONTROLLING,BREATH,OR MAKING DIFFERENT BODY POSTURES, OR THE ACTIVITIES, MENTIONED BY PATANJALI, THE WORD YOGA ORIGINATED FROM SANSKRIT ROOT. YUJ, MEANING TO JOINING TO TIE TOGETHER ETC, IT HAS BEEN USED AT SEVERAL PLACES IN BHAGAVAD GITA,BUT WITH MUCH WIDER AND DIFFERENT MEANING LIKE. THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF KARMA, NISHKAMA, AND SAKAMA,
NISHKAMA KARMA IS WITHOUT ATTACHMENT, WHILE THE SAKAMA KARMA IS DONE FOR SOME END RESULT WHICH LEADS TO BONDAGE,FOR THE DOER,
IN BHAGAVAD GITA THE WORD KARMA IS USED TO DENOTE ALL HUMAN ACTIVITIES,IT MAY BE TO MAINTAIN OUR BODY, MEET OUR OFFICIAL OBLIGATIONS,TO UPKEEP OUR FAMILY PRAYERS AND OTHER RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES, SERVICE TO SOCIETY,AND MANY OTHER THINGS,THE ESSENTIAL MEANING OF YOGA IS EXPLAINED BY LORD SRIKRISNA HIMSELF IN GITA. (lN YOGAH KARMASU KAUSHALAM, THUS KARMA YOGA REFERS TO ALL HUMAN ACTIVITIES, PERFORMED WITH CONCENTRATION,
SO DOING THINGS WITH EXPERTISE CONCENTRATION, IS YOGA,
THE WAY TO LIBERATION IS TO PERFORM OUR DUTIES WITHOUT ATTACHMENT IN BHAGAVAD GITA SRI KRISHNA INSTRUCTS ARJUNA (THE MAN KIND ). To PERFORM THEIR WORK OR DUTIES MOST SINCERELY, AND WITH EXPERTISE,AND THE SKILLS THEY HAVE MASTERED,
IN KARMA YOGA THE ACTIONS ARE DEDICATED TO THE LORD, PRACTICING KARMA YOGA DOES NOT DEMAND WEALTH, IT CAN BE PRACTICED WITH MIND AND BODY,
WE CAN SERVE AS A POOR PERSON,
PRACTICING KARMA YOGA FREES US, FROM LUST, GREED, ANGER, AND EGOISM, AND MAKES US FEARLESS.A LARGE HEARTED PERSON,
DUTY IS GOD AND ALSO WORK IS WORSHIP, BOTH ARE ESSENTIAL ALIKE FOR MIND AND PHYSICAL,
IF DUTY IS PURE AND PIOUS MAN BECOMES IMMORTAL ONE, HUMANITY SINGS HIS GLORY .LET US DO OUR DUTY AS A PENANCE TO GOD
OUR BIRTH MUST BE SUCCEEDED AND OUR ANCESTORS CHANT AHEAD.

DIVINE BROTHERS. AND MORE DIVINE SISTERS IN DAILY MEDITATION FOR SELF REALIZATION AND GOD REALIZATION IN THE PRESENT LIFE ITSELF UNDER THE GRACE AND BLESSINGS OF LIVING YOGI SHRI SHRI SHRI SHIVABALA YOGI MAHARAJ AND HIS GURU. LORD SHIVA. AND MATA PARVATIJI,
TODAY WE ENJOY. HOW. TO BECOME A KARMA. YOGI?
THE ULTIMATE. AIM OF YOGA IS. SUPREME AND. UNINTERRUPTED BLISS,
(MOKSA). HOW DO WE. ACHIEVE THIS?I S IT THROUGH STUDY
(JNA.NA. YOGA,). OR. THROUGH. ACTIONS,(.KARMA YOGA).
IF. IT. IS FOLLOWED WITH SELFLESS. MOTIVE THE GOAL CAN. BE ACHIEVED THE MOST RELEVANT PATH IN OUR DAILY. LIFE STYLE IS. KARMA YOGA,(YOGA OF SELFLESS ACTION,). OF THE FOUR PATHS OF YOGA, KARMA YOGA IS THE PROCESS OF
PERFECTION,IN ACTIONS, DESTROY. THE EGO. IN ORDER TO HAVE. SUCCESS IN YOGA,
SPIRITUAL PRACTICE IS NECESSARY ,BY PRACTICING THEORETICAL RELIGION IN A CLOSED ROOM WE WILL NOT ACHIEVE ANYTHING,
THE EFFECTS OF PAST ACTIONS WILL BE WASHED ONLY THROUGH
VIRTUOUS ACTIONS,IN THE PRESENT,THAT IS BY DOING SERVICE,
THE ACCUMULATED LAYERS OF EGO CANNOT BE DESTROYED WITHOUT DOING SERVICES TO OTHERS ,
POSSESSORS OF RAJAS, AND TAMAS GUNAS,ALWAYS WISH TO ENJOY THE PLEASURES
BUT THE PLEASURES OF THE THREE WORLDS CAN NOT BE EQUAL TO
THE BLISS OF DIVINE KNOWLEDGE,
KARMA YOGA MAY APPEAR TO BE DIFFICULT IN THE BEGINNING SINCE THE ENTIRE WORLD IS EGO RIDDEN, DRAW INSPIRATION FROM THE STORIES OF SAINTS
SPIRITUALISE ALL YOUR ACTIONS,SERVE POOR, SERVE OUR PARENTS,
AND SERVE YOUR COUNTRY, SERVICE TO HUMANITY, THEN ALL YOUR ACTIONS. WILL BECOME OFFERINGS UNTO THE LORD
WE HAVE EXPECTATIONS OF REWARDS FOR ACTIONS PERFORMED
I F YOU SMILE WHEN YOU MEET YOUR FRIEND YOU EXPECT HIM TO SMILE
BACK,IF YOU SALUTE A FRIEND YOU EXPECT HIM TO SMILE, IF YOU SALUTE A FRIEND YOU EXPECT HIM TO RECIPROCATE, THIS IS AN INBORN TENDENCY, WE HAVE TO TRAIN THE MIND TO WORK. DISINTERESTEDLY
A KARMA YOGI IS FREE FROM THE IMPURITIES OF MIND,
HE PREPARES HIMSELF TO RECEIVE DIVINE LIGHT,
A KARMA YOGI BREAKS ALL THE BARRICADES AGAINST REALIZING THE
ULTIMATE TRUTH,
A REAL KARMA YOGI. SEES GOD IN ALL.
SERVICE TO HUMANITY IS SERVICE TO GOD, IF A PERSON WORKS SELFLESSLY HE IS A GOOD KARMA YOGI,
A YOGI FEELS THAT ALL HIS POWERS ARE FROM GOD ONLY,
BE REGULAR IN PRAYERS ,MEDITATION, CHANTING OF LORDS NAME,
PAVING THE PATH TO SELFLESS SERVICE WHEN YOU BECOME A YOGI
THE LORD AFTER INSTRUCTING ARJUNA IN THE SUBLIME AND SUBTLE PHILOSOPHY OF THE HIGHEST ORDER THROUGH THE NECTAR OF HIS TEACHINGS ASKS ARJUNA FOR HIS RESPONSE AND THE DISCIPLE IMMEDIATELY RESPONDS THAT HE WILL FOLLOW THE LORD.

GIVE RESULT IN TIME YET TO COME IN OUR LIFE CALLED AGAMI, AN EXAMPLE OF PRARABDHA KARMA IS OUR BODY, THE FAMILY AND CIRCUMSTANCES IN WHICH WE ARE BORN, OUR BODY SUFFERS OR ENJOYS,
DUE TO THE FRUITS OF OUR PRARABDHA, KARMA DETERMINES
WHAT WE DESERVE,THERE ARE SOME WHICH START GIVING RESULTS,
THESE ARE CALLED PRARABDHA KARMA OR DESTINY,
THE OTHER KARMAS GIVE RESULT IN TIME YET TO COME IN OUR LIFE
CALLED AGAMI, OUR KARMA DETERMINES WHAT WE DESERVE,AND THAT CAN BE CALLED OUR DESTINY, WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT WE ARE,
KAMA KARMA IS THE WORK DONE BY A PERSON WITHOUT ANY DESIRE OR ATTACHMENT,
WHAT WE ARE TODAY IS THE SUM TOTAL OF ALL THE IMPRESSIONS
OF NOT ONLY THIS LIFE WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT WE ARE,
WE OURSELVES ARE RESPONSIBLE,FOR WHAT WE ARE TODAY, OUR PRESENT CIRCUMSTANCES AND EVENTS ARE GOVERNED BY OUR PAST ACTIONS,WHICH ARE NO LONGER IN OUR HAND NOW, OUR FUTURE IS IN OUR HAND, GOVERNED BY THE ACTIONS
MOST OF US ARE BUSY COLLECTING THINGS,IN LIFE WHICH SEEM PLEASANT I,E,WHICH SATISFIES THE ANIMAL INSTINCTS,IN US AND WE ARE NOT ABLE TO THINK BEYOND THE MATERIAL WORLD, BUT WE ARE FREE TO LIVE ON PRINCIPLES,
THE PATH OF KNOWLEDGE TAKES US TO HIGHER PLANES,

EVERYONE IS. FREE. TO. DISCHARGE HIS DUTIES, FOR. DUTY IS NEVER.
IN DISCHARGING WHICH MAN IS NOT FREE,THE DIVINE NEVER. EXPECTS ONE TO DO WHAT IS NOT IN ONE'S POWER TO DO, THE EYE HAS TO SEE CORRECTLY IT IS NOT EXPECTED TO LEARN OR HEAR, THE EAR HAS TO HEAR CORRECTLY IT IS NOT EXPECTED TO SEE,ETC.
ONE CAN ATTAIN THE GOAL. BY DOING WHAT HE CAN DO, WHAT ONE CANNOT DO IS NOT HIS DUTY, IT CAN ONLY BE. A FALSE LURE,OF AMBITION,
OUR DEBT TO SOCIETY IS MANY FOLD, WE ARE INDEBTED TO OUR PARENTS, AND TEACHERS,AS WELL AS TO MANY OTHER INDIVIDUALS FOR OUR UPBRINGING,
THE VERY ROADS ON WHICH WE WALK ARE CONSTRUCTED BY OUR FELLOW KINSMEN,THE HOUSES WE LIVE IN , THE FOOD THAT WE EAT,,THE MANY CONVENIENCES WE ENJOY ETC.ARE ALL GIFTS OF SOCIETY, BY SELFLESS SERVICE ,
SELFLESS SERVICE DISSOLVES SELFISHNESS,IN MAN, THE QUEST FOR TRUTH OR THE YEARNING FOR LOVE RESULTS IN RELEASE FROM THE BONDAGE OF DESIRES,AND THE ATTAINMENT OF LIFE AND LOVE. IMMORTAL.
AS THE LOTUS REMAINS IN WATER SO DO YOU LIVE IN THE WORLD, ABOUT SIXTY YEARS AGO DURING OUR CHILDHOOD,DAYS, WE USED TO PLAY WITH THE LOTUS LEAVES, ENJOYING THE CHARMING SIGHT OF FULLY BLOSSOMED LOTUS FLOWERS,IN THE POND,WHICH EXISTED TO THE EAST OF OUR VILLAGE KATHIVA (. ETAWA,)
WHAT SORT OF PLAY ?THE GAME OF SPLASHING WATER ON THE LEAVES, WATER FALLS ON THE SURFACE OF THE LEAVES,TINY DROPLETS OF WATER SEEM TO BE BEAUTIFUL PEARLS. FOR HOURS THIS GAME WOULD GO ON.WHAT A FINE GAME,IN SPITE OF ALL,OUR EFFORTS WATER DROPLETS WON'T.DARE STAY ON THE SURFACE OF THE LEAVES, NO QUESTION OF STICKING TO THEM. AS THE LOTUS REMAINS IN WATER. SO DO YOU LIVE IN THE WORLD, LIVE IN THE WORLD LIKE A LOTUS IN WATER,
HE WHO ACTS. OFFERING ALL ACTIONS TO GOD,, AND SHAKING OFF, ATTACHMENT , REMAINS UNTOUCHED BY SIN, AS THE LOTUS LEAVES,
THE HINDI WORDFOR LOTUS IS KAMALA HOW MANY SYNONYMS EXIST FOR THIS WORD KAMALA BE IT JALAJA,—AMBUJA,OR SAROJA, VARIJA,OR BE IT PANKAJA, ALL THESE WORDS HAVE THE SAME SENSE, BORN OF WATER WATER CAN NOT REMAIN ON LOTUS LEAF,IT CANNOT STAY THERE,LOTUS DOES NOT DOES NOT ALLOW WATER TO STAY ON IT, WE ARE TO LIVE IN THIS WORLD LIKE THE LOTUS, DETACHED —UN ATTACHED, WE TOO ARE TO FOLLOW LOTUS,TO IMITATE IT.AS THE LOTUS REMAINS IN WATER , SO DO YOU LIVE IN THE WORLD KARMAS ARE OUR ACTIVITIES OF DAY TODAY LIFE,
THERE ARE KARMAS WHICH ARE ACQUIRED DUE TO THE TOTAL IMPRESSIONS,GAINED IN THE MIND BECAUSE OF OUR ACTIVITIES, ALL THESE KARMAS DO NOT BEAR FRUIT AT THIS TIME, WHAT WE ARE TODAY IS THE SUM TOTAL OF ALL THE IMPRESSIONS.OF NOT ONLY THIS LIFE BUT ALSO THE PAST LIVES,
THE PATH OF KNOWLEDGE TAKES US TO HIGHER PLANES
OF CONSCIOUSNESS,HEAVEN AND THEN SELF REALISATION, EACH MOMENT WE HAVE FREE WILL TO ACT ONE WAY OR THE OTHER, IN THE CIRCUMSTANCES GIVEN TO US,WE JUDGE EACH MOMENT WITH OUR INTELLECT AND DISCRIMINATION,AND THEN ACT, OUR ACTIONS OF YESTERDAY MAKE OUR PRESENT AND OUR ACTIONS OF TODAY WILL MAKE OUR FUTURE,

CHAOS IS PREVALENT NOT ONLY IN INDIA,RATHER IN THE WHOLE WORLD, THERE IS NO PEACE, EXPLOITATION IS PREVAILING IN THE WORLD, IN SO MANY FORMS,VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE, HOW. TO RESTORE PEACE IN THE WORLD, HOW CAN THIS EXPLOITATION CEASE,?
IF WE DELVE DEEPLY INTO THESE ISSUES,WE WILL FIND THAT, SELFISHNESS IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVILS, SELFISHNESS CAN BE TRANSMITTED INTO SELFLESS,SERVICE
ONLY THROUGH THE PRACTICE OF. KARMA YOGA,TO OFFER WHAT ONE HAS TO THOSE WHO NEED IT, CONSIDERING AS IF THAT BELONGS TO THEM WITHOUT ANY SENSE OF EGO,AND SELF INTEREST,IS KARMA YOGA PUT IN PRACTICE,
A GOOD COUNTRY IS WHERE THERE IS NO EXPLOITATION OF ANYONE, ONE STICKS TO HIS DUTY AND THIS PROTECTS THE RIGHTS OF OTHERS,
THE FUNDAMENTAL BASIS OF A GOOD COUNTRY OR A PEACEFUL WORLD CONSISTS IN NO ONE BEING DEPRIVED OF ONE'S RIGHTS, BUT GENERALLY GOOD PARKS,GOOD HOSPITALS, GOOD SCHOOLS, ONLY THEN THAT COUNTRY IS GOOD BUT IT IS NOT A GOOD CRITERIA TO JUDGE, AS IN A GOOD HOUSEHOLD EACH PERSON'S RIGHTS ARE PROTECTED,,ELDERS PROTECTS THE RIGHTS OF CHILDREN AND VICE VERSA, HUSBANDS THOSE OF THE WIFE AND WIFE THOSE OF THE HUSBAND
A MAN IS INDEPENDENT IN PERFORMING HIS DUTY ,BUT WONDER IS THAT EVERYBODY IS CLAMOURNING FOR HIS RIGHTS, NOBODY THINKS OF HIS OWN DUTY, IF ONE DOES HIS DUTY THAT WOULD INSPIRE OTHER TO DO HIS DUTY,
KARMA YOGA IS SUCH A NOBLE PRINCIPLE WHICH TEACHES US THAT WE ALL HAVE EMANATED FROM GOD, GOD PERVADES ALL CREATURES INCLUDING HUMAN BEINGS, AND WE ALL ARE ONE,OUR ABILITIES, AND OBJECTS,AND ENERGY MAY BE DIFFERENT,
THIS DIFFERENCE IS BECAUSE IT IS COMPLEMENTARY. TO ANOTHER
IN A GOOD COUNTRY OR WORLD OUR RIGHTS WOULD BE MET BY OUR DUTIES,THE DUTIES OF OTHERS AND OTHERS RIGHTS WOULD BE COVERED BY OTHERS,
A KARMA YOGI IS ONE WHOSE SELF IS IDENTIFIED WITH THE SELF OF ALL,HE CAN ONLY DO REAL SELFLESS SERVICE,THEREBY ONLY PEACE CAN PREVAIL AND EXPLOITATION CAN CEASE,
ALL HAPPENS WITH DIVINE GRACE ONLY FROM CONCEPTUALIZATION ONWARDS WHATEVER ATTEMPTS WE HAVE MADE FOR BRINGING OUT THIS ISSUES DUE TO DIVINE GRACE, GOD MAKES US ONLY A TOOL ,IN PROPAGATING HIS IDEAS AMONGST PEOPLE AT LARGE,

DUTY IS GOD. AND ALSO WORK IS WORSHIP BOTH ARE ESSENTIAL “ALIKE FOR MIND AND PHYSIQUE,
DUTY IS SELFLESS THAT EVERYBODY FOLLOWS, AS. THE RIVER GLOWS DOWN AND THE WIND ALSO BLOWS.
DUTY WITHOUT OUT DEVOTION VALUES NOTHING MORE
FOR WE. HAVE HAD OUR BIRTH TO MAKE US DUTY —CARE
BEHOLD THE SUN MOON AND STARS THEY DO THE DUTY FOR THE UNIVERSE
EVERY CREATURE OBEYS ONLY THUS. AS. A LAW OF GOD, THAT WE KNOW,
DUTY TEACHES US. DISCIPLINE AND DETERMINATION OF LIFE PATH,
IT IS THE DISCRIMINATOR OF GOOD AND EVIL DEEDS,THOSE WE HATH, GOD SAID IN GITA,——-WE HAVE HAD OUR YOGA EVER ALERT,
IF WE DO OUR DUTIES NEVER SEEKING ANY RESULT IF THE DUTY IS PURE AND PIOUS MAN BECOMES IAN MMORTALONE, HUMANITY SINGS HIS GLORY,AND SO FAR THE HISTORY CAN, LET US DO OUR DUTY AS A PENANCE TO ENCHANT GOD,OUR BIRTH MUST BE SUCCEEDED AND OUR ANCESTORS CHANT AHEAD,
BHAGAVAD GITA. TEACHES HOW. TO ACHIEVE ETERNAL HAPPINESS,
ATMA JNANA,WHILE LIVING AS A GRHASTHA,(. HOUSE HOLDER, EFFICIENTLY, FACING THE DAILY PROBLEMS ,THAT CAUSE HAPPINESS AND SORROW, WITHOUT GETTING SO EJECTED THAT HE GOES TO THE EXTENT OF COMMITTING SUICIDE,AS HE FEELS IT IMPOSSIBLE TO BEAR SUCH A SORROW,
THIS OCCURS WHEN ONE LOSES ONE'S OWN KIN HE LOVES MORE THAN HIS LIFE, WHEN A MAN LOSES HIS PRIDE PRESTIGE,HE LOSES,HIS BALANCE ,OF MIND AND STOOPS DOWN TO COMMIT ANY SINFUL ACT AND WOULD NOT HESITATE TO END HIS LIFE, WE SEE SOME STUDENTS. WHO FAIL IN AN EXAMINATION OR SO-CALLED LOVE AFFAIR,OR SOME WHO LOST HEAVILY IN THEIR INVESTMENTS,
AND SOME WHO COULD NOT MAINTAIN THEIR FAMILIES,FALL INTO THIS TRAP,OVERPOWERED BY EMOTIONS THEY LOSE THEIR ABILITY TO THINK AND ANALYZE, A SITUATION,THEY FORGET THEIR DUTY AND RESPONSIBILITIES,
A LADY WHO LOST HER BELOVED HUSBAND INSPITE OF THE BEST MEDICINE MAY COMMIT SUICIDE,IF SHE IS NOT PROPERLY GUIDED,
ARJUNA WHO COULD PLEASE LORD SHIVA,BY HIS PENANCE , PREFERED TO GET KILLED BY HIS OPPOSING KINSMEN THAN TO KILL THEM
OUT OF MOHA,(. DELUSION, ANJANEYA DECIDED TO DIE IN LANKA IF HE FAILED TO LOCATE SITA DEVI, IN RAVANA'S HOUSE LATER HE ANALYZED AND CONCLUDED THAT HE SHOULD STRIVE TO SUCCEED,
ONE SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT ENDING OF THIS LIFE DOES NOT END THE SUFFERING ONE HAS TO UNDERGO, IT WOULD HAUNT HIM IN FUTURE,LIVES TOO,SO THE INTELLIGENT PREFER SUFFERING IN THIS LIFE.
GREAT PEOPLE CONTROL THEIR ANGER,WITH THEIR ANALYTICAL AND DECISION MAKING POWER (. BUDDHI,) AS FIRE IS EXTINGUISHED BY WATER,
KARMA MEANS DESIGNED DUTY ASSIGNED,YOGA MEANS A METHOD OF PERFORMING THE KARMA WITH EASE, EFFICIENCY, CONFIDENCE AND SATISFACTION,WITHOUT GETTING WORRIED, ABOUT THE RESULTS, OR POSSIBLE SUCCESS OR FAILURES,
THE MAIN PRINCIPLE OF KARMA YOGA IS TO SUBMIT TO ALL THE DUTIES,AS ORDAINED BY THE DIVINE POWER,AND TO PERFORM THEM OUT ANY GREED,DESIRE OR SELF INTEREST NONE CAN ESCAPE DOING HIS ASSIGNED DUTY TO AVOID FACING ADVERSE EFFECTS OR RESULTS OF HIS ACTIONS,

——MAHABHARATA
ONE WHO FEELS UNHAPPINESS AFTER SACRIFICE HE DOES NOT KNOW EVEN EVEN THE TRUE MEANING OF IT, REAL SACRIFICE PROVIDES HAPPINESS
AND CARRIES THE HUMAN BEINGTO THE HIGHEST LEVEL”
———MAHATMA GANDHI
SACRIFICE BEARS GREAT SIGNIFICANCE IN INDIAN LIFE LITERATURE
AND. CULTURE IT MEANS GIVING UP. , NOT COLLECTING ( OR HOARDING)
FOREVER TO THE WELFARE OF FELLOW BEING ONE SHOULD REMEMBER THAT
THE WORD SACRIFICE BEARS. WEIGHTAGE IN LIFE THROUGH THE AGES,
THE ENGLISH WORD GIVING UP OR NOT HOARDING DO NOT CARRY THE SAME MEANING TO A GREAT EXTENT, SACRIFICE WITHOUT POSSESSING AND POSSESSING WITHOUT SACRIFICE HAVE NO MEANING, BOTH ARE COMPLEMENTARY EACH OTHER
J. C.BOSE IS OF THE OPINION THAT SACRIFICE AND AND ACHIEVEMENT ARE THE TWO SIDES OF THE ONE AND THE SAME COIN, HUMAN BEING GIVES IN THE FORM OF STOOL
WHATEVER HE TAKES IN, I F HE FAILS TO DO SO HE BECOMES ILL,
EARNED MONEY OR WEALTH IF DISTRIBUTED AMONG THE DESERVING
DOWNTRODDEN AND NEEDY PEOPLE. IT MAY BE TERMED AS SACRIFICE,
VIS—AVIS SAFEGUARDING THE TRUE SPIRIT IN THE SAME WAY
THE RIVER AND THE TANK STORES THE WATER AND PROVIDES IT FOR IRRIGATION TO CULTIVATORS IF THE RIVER OR THE TANK DOES NOT SUPPLY THE WATER TO THE NEEDY ONES IT BECOMES DIRTY, AND NO ONE DARES TO PASS NEARBY,
THE LAMP PROVIDES LIGHT TO THE MAN IN THE STREET EVEN BURNING ITSELF IN THE SAME FASHION THE IMPOSITION OR RESTRICTION FOR FULFILLING THE SELF DESIRES IS THE SOURCE OF SACRIFICE OR NOT HOARDING.
WITH THE HELP OF THIS DISCUSSION ONE EVALUATES THE GREAT PLACE OF SACRIFICE” AMONG THE HUMAN CHARACTERISTICS.
BUT UNFORTUNATELYONE COMES ACROSS THE HABIT OF SACRIFICING IN A HANDFUL PEOPLE
UTTERING SACRIFICE IS EASY AND SO IS THE DIFFICULT CULT IN PRACTICE
SACRIFICE MAY BE MAY BE IN THE FORM OF WEALTH, ,FOOD, CLOTHES HOUSE, FAMILY WIFE, BODY , POST STATUS AND SO ON,
THIS LIST IS ENDLESS, ITS SCOPE IS UNLIMITED, IN TRUE SENSE SACRIFICE IS NOT A ROYAL ROAD ,DUE TO ONE REASON OR OTHER, BUT THOSE WHO PRACTICED IT, SUFFERED A LOT FOR OTHERS BECAME GREAT MEN/WOMAN,
THE PATHFINDERS AND ALL THESE PERSONS HAVE GIVEN UP
ALL WORLDLY PLEASURES.IN PRACTICAL LIFE TODAY.

DIVINE BROTHERS AND MORE DIVINE SISTERS LEADING A HEALTHY LIFE FOR SELF REALIZATION AND. GOD REALIZATION IN THE PRESENT LIFE. UNDER THE GRACE AND BLESSINGS OF SHIVABALA YOGI MAHARAJ AND HIS GURU LORD SHIVA AND MATA PARVATIJI,
TODAY WE ENJOY THE KARMA YOGA—-THE EASIER DISCIPLINE
THE KARMA YOGA DESCRIBED IN THE GITA IS NO MERE THEORETICAL
PROPOSITION BUT CAN BE ACTUALLY BE REDUCED INTO PRACTICE
IT APPEARS DIFFICULT TO US ONLY ON ACCOUNT OF OUR IGNORANCE
OF THE SECRET OF ITS PERFORMANCE AND OUR ATTACHMENT WITH
THE BODY AND AND OBJECTS OF THE WORLDS ALSO DUE TO LACK
OF FAITH ON OUR PART
BUT AS A MATTER OF FACT IT IS NOT SO DIFFICULT THROUGH DISINTERESTED PERFORMANCE OF DUTIES LAID DOWN BY THE SHASTRAS WITH IMPLICIT FAITH IN THE WORDS OF LORD AND ACCORDING TO HIS DIRECTIONS MEANT FOR THE WORLD
IT WILL GRADUALLY APPEAR AND THE SECRET OF KARMA YOGA WILL GRADUALLY UNFOLD ITSELF TO US,THROUGH THIS PROCESS WHEN ATTACHMENT IS COMPLETELY DESTROYED AND THE SECRET OF KARMA YOGA IS REVEALED TO US
PRACTICE OF KARMA YOGA WILL NO LONGER APPEAR DIFFICULT, REAL SELFLESSNESS CONSISTS IN RENOUNCING THE DESIRE. FOR ALL WEAKNESSES LIKE PARTIALITY PREJUDICE, ARE ERADICATED AND ABERRATIONS TO WHICH THEY GENERALLY LEAD ARE PUT A STOP TO.
THEREFORE IT IS THE DUTY OF EVERY MAN TO PERFORM SUCH DISINTERESTED ACTION TAKING REFUGE UNDER THE FEET OF THE LORD,
BUT WHAT THIS RENUNCIATION OF SELF INTEREST IN EVERY KARMA MEANS
SHOULD BE CAREFULLY ANALYZED AND UNDERSTOOD
SUPPOSE WE PERFORM AN ACTION APPROVED BY SHASTRA THROUGH MIND, SPEECH OR BODY AND DO NOT SEEK WEALTH, OR BODILY COMFORTING RETURN FOR IT BUT WE CAN'T BE SAID TO HAVE RENOUNCED ALL FORMS OF SELF INTEREST THEREBY ALL THESE CAN BE RENOUNCED BY THE SELF ONLY
WHEN WE HAVE RENOUNCED THE DESIRE FOR HONOR, PRESTIGE, FAME AND EVEN ENJOYMENT OF THE OTHER WORLDS
WHEN WE HAVE RENOUNCED THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF OUR HAVING RENOUNCED ALL THESE THINGS,
IT IS DUE TO IGNORANCE OR LACK OF WISDOM ON OUR PART THAT IN ORDER TO SERVE OUR MINOR INTERESTS WE NEGLECT OUR GREATER
AND TRUER INTEREST,VIZ GOD - REALIZATION
ACCOUNT OF THIS IGNORANCE WE DO NOT REALIZE THE INESTIMABLE LOSS WE SUFFER THERE AND WHAT LITTLE FAITH WE HAVE IN THIS LOSS
WE SUFFER”FOR THE SUPREME BLISS AND SUPREME PEACE OF WHICH WE READ SO MUCH IN BOOKS WE HAVE NEVER TASTED,THE SCRIPTURES AND SAINTS EXHORTUS WITH ONE VOICE TO GIVE UP THE DESIRE FOR HONOR AND FAME AS SOMETHING EXCEEDINGLY HARMFUL,THEY ARE THORNS IN THE PATH OF GOD- REALIZATION
THEY RETARD THE PROGRESS OF THE ASPIRANT IN HIS GOD-WARD JOURNEY IF COVETED TOO MUCH THEY EVEN BRING ABOUT THE SPIRITUAL DOWN FALL OFTHE ASPIRANTBY LEADING TO HYPOCRISY AND DISSIMULATION
WHEN PUT TO THE TEST OF REASON THE ORDINARY PATIENT MAY NOT BE CURED EVEN BY THE BEST OF MEDICINES, BUT SPIRITUALLY BECOMES OK BY GOD SERVICES.

AND LORD SHIVA, TAKING BEST CARE OF YOUR HEALTH FROM PANDEMICS LIKE CORONA AND OTHERS,
TODAY WE WILL ENJOY MARKS OF A REAL KARMAYOGI
THE INTELLECT OF A KARMA YOGI IS DETERMINATE, HIS/HER GOAL
IS DETERMINED HIS/HER GOAL IS GOD REALIZATION ALONE
WHEN A STRIVER SETS UP HIS GOAL OR HIS GOAL IS FIXED THEN MEANS OF ATTAINING THAT GOALCOM OF THEMSELVES, ALL HIS/HER WORKS AND THOUGHTS
ARE DIRECTED TOWARDS THAT END,
KARMA YOGI HAS MASTERED ALL HIS/HER SENSES, iT IS VERY ESSENTIAL FOR A KARMA YOGI,TO SUBDUE HIS/HER SENSES AS HE/SHE HAS EVER TO PERFORM ACTIONS,THEREFORE IF HIS.HER SENSES ARE NOT CONTROLLED THERE IS EVERY POSSIBILITY HE/SHE CAN DEVIATE FROM THE RIGHT PATH,
IF HIS/HER SENSES ARE NOT UNDER CONTROL, HE/SHE CAN NOT RENDER SELFLESS SERVICES TO OTHERS FOR THEIR WELFARE,
LORD KRISNA IN GITA LAYS SPECIAL EMPHASIS ON CONTROL OF THE SENSES IN THE DISCIPLINE OF KARMA YOGA, HE DECLARES CONTROLLING THE SENSES BY THE MIND, AND CONTROL THE SENSES FROM THE BEGINNING,
THE REASON IS THAT SO LONG AS MIND IS NOT PERMANENTLY ESTABLISHED IN GOD,THE PAST INFLUENCES OF ENJOYMENT OF PLEASURES, ATTRACT THE SENSES, AND MIND TOWARDS SENSE PLEASURES, FORCIBLY
FURTHER SUCH STRIVE MUST RENOUNCE BODILY COMFORT,
A KARMA YOGI HAS TO PERFORM ACTIONS EFFICIENTLY AND WITH ALL HIS/HER ENERGY, GOD IS THE SELF OF ALL BEINGS,FROM BRAHMA THE CREATOR, DOWN TO THE TINIEST BLADE OF GRASS
THEREFORE HE/SHE REGARDS GOD AS HIS/HERSELF, THE INNER CONTROLLER, AND PERFORMS ALL HIS/HER ACTIONS ACCORDING TO PROMPTINGS AND GUIDANCE OF GOD AND WHO HAS NO SENSE OF MINE WITH REGARD TO THE BODY SENSES, MIND AND INTELLECT,OR ANY THING EXCEPT GOD,
HE IS REAL KARMA YOGI,
IT IS IN THE NATURE OF A KARMA YOGI TO BE GENEROUS
GENEROCITYIS GENERATEDWHEN A KARMA YOGIIDENTIFIES HIMSELF
WITH THE SOUL OF OTHERS
IN KARMA YOGITHERE IS NO DESIRE IN THE LEAST,FOR FRUIT OF ACTIONS, HENCE ALL HIS/HER ACTIONS ARE WITHOUT ANY SELFISH MOTIVE,
ONE'S AIM IS GOD REALIZATION,THE FRUIT IS MATERIAL AND PERISHABLE, AND GOD IS ETERNAL,
A KARMA YOGI DOES NOT DESIRE THE PERISHABLE BECAUSE THIS DESIRE IS AN OBSTACLE IN GOD REALIZATION,THEREFORE HE/SHE HAS FIXED AIM OF GOD REALIZATION, HE/SHE NEVER DEVIATES FROM HIS AIM
GOD HAS BLESSED US WITH HUMAN LIFE. IT IS ONLY IN THIS HUMAN LIFE THAT WE CAN REALIZE GOD,
THEREFORE ALL HUMAN BEINGS MUST MAKE AN ATTEMPT TO BE TRUE KARMA YOGI, BECAUSE KARMA YOGA IS AN EASY DISCIPLINE FOR GOD REALIZATION,

YOGA IS GENERALLY. UNDERSTOOD AS THE ACTIVITY OF CONTROLLING BREATH, OR MAKING DIFFERENT BODY POSTURES, OR THE. ACTIVITIES, MENTIONED BY PATANJALI,
THE WORD YOGA ORIGINATED SANSKRIT ROOT YUJ” MEANING TO JOIN, TO TIE,TOGETHER ETC,
IT HAS BEEN USED AT SEVERAL PLACES IN. BHAGAVAD GITA, BUT WITH MUCH WIDER AND DIFFERENT MEANING, LIKE. APPROPRIATENESS, JOINING, EXPERTISE, ATTAINMENT ETC,
THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF KARMA. —-NISHKAMA AND SAKAMA,
NISHKAMA KARMA IS WITHOUT ATTACHMENT WHILE THE SAKAMA KARMA IS DONE FOR SOME END RESULT,WHICH LEADS TO BONDAGE FOR THE DOER,
IN BHAGAVAD GITA THE WORD KARMA IS USED TO DENOTE ALL HUMAN ACTIVITIES, IT MAY BE TO MAINTAIN OUR BODY, MEET OUR OFFICIAL OBLIGATIONS,TO UPKEEP OUR FAMILY ,PRAYERS AND OTHER RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES, SERVICE TO SOCIETY AND MANY OTHER THINGS,
THE ESSENTIAL MEANING OF YOGA IS EXPLAINED BY LORD KRISNA HIMSELF IN GEETA,(. I I50)SPECIAL TALENT EXPERTISE OR SKILLS IN DOING SOMETHING,
KARMA YOGA REFERS TO DENOTE ALL HUMAN ACTIVITIES,
DOING THINGS WITH EXPERTISE IS YOGA,WITHOUT ATTACHMENT.

ALL ACTIONS ARE DEDICATED TO THE LORD,PRACTICED WITH MIND AND BODY, PRACTICING KARMA YOGA FREES US. FROM LUST, GREED, ANGER AND EGOISM, AND MAKES US FEARLESS, AND A LARGE HEARTED PERSON,

KARMA YOGA LEADS TO SALVATION,BECAUSE KARMA YOGA IS DESIRELESS ACTION, GOD IS. GREATEST SELFLESS CREATOR HE IS ENGAGED IN ACTION FOR THE EXISTENCE,WELFARE OF THE UNIVERSE CONSTANTLY.
WHAT IS BONDAGE ? DESIRE IS THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE BONDAGE WHENEVER A SAINT OR NOBLE PERSON WORKS WITHOUT ANY SELFISHNESS,HE/SHE IS EVER LIBERATED HE/SHE IS A TRUE KARMA YOGI
LORD KRISNA PREACHED BHAGVAD GITA TO THE GREAT WARRIOR ARJUNA,ONLY DUTY IS THE CONCERN, NOT ITS FRUIT,
WHEN A PERSON WORKS FOR THE WELFARE AND WELLBEING OF THE CREATION OF GOD WITHOUT ANY DESIRE WHATSOEVER OR SELFISHNESS,HE IS REALLY A KARMA YOGI,
LORD BUDDHA AFTER ATTAINING SPIRITUAL ENLIGHTENMENT CONSIDERED THE ROOT CAUSE OF BONDAGE, TANHA,TRISNA OR DESIRE,
ACTION IS BUT NATURAL FOR EVERY CREATURE OF THE UNIVERSE, HE/SHE CANNOT REMAIN WITHOUT ANY ACTIVITY, WORK IS WORSHIP, ACTION IS LIFE, INACTION IS DEATH, ONE EATS FOOD,AND DRINKS WATER
ONLY DESIRE IS THE CAUSE OF LIFE AND DEATH
KARMA YOGA IS THE DRIVING FORCE FOR SEVERAL ACTIVITIES OF LIFE
BHAKTI YOGA IS THE DEVOTIONAL FERVOR, IT PUSHES ALSO FOR ACTIVITY, BHAKTI IS NOT INACTION,OR PASSIVITY
JNANAYOGA IS ALSO ESSENTIAL FOR KARMA YOGA
BECAUSE JNANA YOGA PROVIDES SPIRITUAL ENLIGHTENMENT TO THE KARMA YOGI, KARMA YOGA WITHOUT JNANA YOGA IS BLIND
KARMA YOGA WITHOUT BHAKTI YOGA IS HEARTLESS,
ASPIRANT FOR SALVATION HAS TO WORK WITHOUT ANY PERSONAL DESIRE OR AMBITION, WITHOUT ANY SELFISH MOTIVE DESIRELESSNESS IS THE MAIN CHARACTERISTIC OFA KARMA YOGI,
SUPERIORITY OF KARMA YOGA IS SELF EVIDENT BECAUSE NO LIVING BEING OF THE UNIVERSE LIVES WITHOUT ANY ACTIVITY, OR MOVEMENT,
DESIRE IS THE CAUSE OF LIFE AND DEATH, KARMA YOGA IS DESIRELESS ACTION,
GOD IS A GREATEST SELFLESS CREATOR. HE IS ENGAGED IN ACTION FOR THE EXISTENCE AND WELFARE OF THE UNIVERSE CONSTANTLY.
WHENEVER A SAINT OR NOBLE PERSON WORKS WITH OUT ANY SELFISHNESS,HE/SHE IS EVER LIBERATED, HESHE IS TRUE KARMA YOGI
LORD KRISNA SAYS TO ARJUNA, ONLY DUTY IS THE CONCERN
KARMA YOGA IS SUPERIOR TO ALL SADHANAS, KARMA YOGI REQUIRES WISDOM, BOLDNESS, FREEDOM FROM FEAR AND WORLDLY TEMPTATIONS,OR ATTRACTIONS AND GRACE OF GOD,INDIA HAD MANY KARMA YOGIS, LIKE. MAHARAJA. JANAKA,
JAGADGURU. ADI SANKARA CHARYA ,
THE MODERN WORLD IS PASSING THROUGH A CONDITION OF CHAOS,
OF MORAL VALUES,AND CONFUSION,
GROSS MATERIALISM,HAS BECOME AIM AND OBJECTIVE OF HUMAN EXISTENCE THERE IS CUTTHROAT, COMPETITION AMONG THE NATIONS OF THE WORLD,

THE PHYSICAL AND MENTAL ACTIVITY GOES TOGETHER, KARMA
THE PHYSICAL ACTION AND YOGA, THE MIND CONTROL, ARE INTERRELATED THE SENSE THAT MIND AND PHYSICALITY ARE INTERLINKED
KARMA YOGA IS THE PROCESS BY WHICH UNITY OF SOUL AND SPIRIT
IS ACHIEVED THROUGH SELFLESS ACTION,
OUR MIND IS CEASELESSLY BUSY IN CHURNING OUT THOUGHTS,THESE THOUGHTS WHEN ACTED UPON BUILD OUR PERSONALITY HOW MUCH WE USE OUR ABILITY TO DISCERN GOOD THOUGHTS FROM BAD ONES MAKES US. WHAT WE ARE,
WITHOUT PROPER DISCERNMENT OUR THOUGHT STREAM CAN LEAD US TO HARM AND DESTRUCTION.
YOGA IS CHITTA VRITTINI RODHA,THE CONTROL OF OUR MENTAL DESIRES, PASSIONS, ASPIRATIONS AND INCLINATIONS

LORD KRISNA. ——AN DEAL KARMA YOGI, LORD KRISNA. IN GITA CHAPTER III. VERSES 22. TO 24. SAYS THAT THERE IS NOTHING IN THE THREE WORLDS,O. ARJUNA THAT IS FOR ME TO DO , NOR IS THERE ANYTHING UNATTAINED THAT SHOULD BE ACHIEVED, YET. I. ENGAGE MYSELF IN ACTION, FURTHER THE LORD SAYS THAT I. CEASELESSLY PERFORM ACTIONS WITH CARE WITH NO SELFISH MOTIVE,
HE THUS SETS AN IDEAL BEFORE EVERYDAY PEOPLE, INSPIRING PEOPLE TO ENGAGE IN ACTIONS,WITHOUT ANY SELF INTEREST ONLY FOR THE GOOD,OF THE PEOPLE, SO THAT THEY CAN GAIN SALVATION EASILY,
AS ABOVE SAID, THAT GOD HAS NOTHING TO DO FOR HIMSELF, YET HE. INCARNATES FOR THE WELFARE OF OTHERS,AND PERFORMS ACTIONS,FOR THE PROTECTION OF THE GOOD, FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF THE WICKED AND FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
THE LORD CREATES THE UNIVERSE ALSO FOR THE SALVATION OF BEINGS,HE HAS CREATED. HEAVENS SO THAT BEINGS MAY REAP THE FRUIT OF THEIR VIRTUOSOS ACTIONS, EIGHTY FOUR LACS FORMS OF LIVES AND HELL SO THAT BEINGS MAY REAP, THE FRUIT OF THEIR EVIL ACTIONS, WHILE HUMAN LIFE HAS BEEN CREATED SO THAT
HUMAN BEINGS HAVING.TRANSCENDED VIRTUES AND VICES MAY ATTAIN GOD REALIZATION,
THIS IS POSSIBLE ONLY WHEN HE DOES NOTHING FOR HIMSELF ALL HIS ACTIVITIES ACTIONS WITH THE GROSS BODY THINKING WITH THE SUBTLE BODY AND SAMADHI(. TRANCE ) WITH CAUSAL BODY SHOULD BE PERFORMED FOR THE WELFARE OF THE WORLD THE REASON IS THAT THIS THREEFOLD BODY IS NOT ONE'S OWN BUT IT BELONGS TO THE WORLD, OR TO GOD,THEREFORE A KARMAYOGI CONSIDERS THE BODY THE SENSES,MIND,INTELLECTETC,OF THE WORLD OR OF GOD WHICH IN FACT BELONGS TO EITHER TO THE WORLD OR TO GOD, HE COMMITS BLUNDER IF HE UTILIZES FOR HIMSELF.

NOW IN THE PRESENT AGE , IT'S ALMOST PRACTICALLY DISAPPEARED,
KARMA YOGA IS NOT AT ALL DISCUSSED IN BOOKS,
WE DON’T EVEN GET TO READ ON IT, IT IS HARDLY HEAR AND DISCUSSED IN SATSANGS,
STUDY ON IT IS. IS PRACTICALLY EXTINCT, EVEN IN SCRIPTURES WE DON'T FIND ITS APPRAISAL: ThEREFORE IT SEEMS AS THOUGH. KARMA YOGA AND ITS. ANALYSIS,HAVE BECOME VERY DIFFICULT, THE ANALYSIS OF KARMA YOGA CAN TAKE UP MANY HOURS.
I RELATE A FEW ESSENTIALS OF IT, YOGA HAS BEEN DEFINED IN GITA ATTWO PLACES,
EQUANIMITY IS YOGA, TO BE. ABSOLUTELY FREE FROM THE CONTACT OF ALL SORROWS IS YOGA, WHAT IS EQUANIMITY. EQUANIMITY IS. BRAHMAN, WHEN ARE WE FREE FROM CONTACT WITH SORROWS ON ATTAINING ABSOLUTE BLISS, THERE ARE SEVERAL YOGAS, THE KARMA YOGA, JNANA YOGA, BHAKTI YOGA,HATHA YOGA, RAJA YOGA,MANTRA YOGA ETC. THE IMPORT OF ALL THESE YOGAS IS AWAKENING ONES NATURAL UNION. WITH GOD,
IT MAY BE DESIGNATED EITHER SELFLESS ACTION OR KARMA YOGA.
WHEN DOES THAT UNION WITH GOD(.YOGA) RESULT THROUGH ACTIONS? WHEN WE DO NOT PERFORM ANY SINGLE ACTION FOR SELF INTEREST, WHEN OUR ALL ACTIVITIES LIKE. EATING,DRINKING, STANDING SITTING, SLEEPING, AWAKING, THINKING, WORSHIPPING, AND CONTEMPLATING, AND GOING INTO TRANCE—ALL ARE NOT DONE WITH SELFISHNESS WITH SELFISH MOTIVE, THEN ALONE KARMAYOGA FRUCTIFIES,

WE WILL TODAY ENJOY. PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND KARMA YOGA. BY PROF. M. P. SINHA,
A. VERY. COMMON PHRASES OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE IS USED AS
‘SPORTSMANSHIP” THIS MEANS THAT ANY. HAPPENINGGOOD OR BAD IS TAKEN LIKE A SPORTS PERSON,A PERSON TOTALLY DEVOTED TO HIS SPORTS OR OR PHYSICAL WORK IS NOT WORRIED ABOUT THE RESULTS THE PERSON TAKES BOTH WINS. AND DEFEATS EQUALLY IN A BALANCED WAY, HE OR SHE. KNOWS THAT HIS OR HER WORK IS TO DO PRACTICE TO PERFECTION, NO. DOUBT ONE BECOMES HAPPY. WHEN WINS BUT. DOES NOT BECOME VERY UNHAPPY WHEN LOSES A GAME OR SPORTS, TAKES IT IN HIS OR HER STRIDE, EVERY FAILED ATTEMPT TEACHES A LESSON TO DO THE EXERCISE OR PRACTICE IN A MORE INTENSE AND SINCERE WAY, IN OTHER WORDS YOU ARE TO DO YOUR DUTY, YOUR WORK AND YOUR PRACTICE, THE SAME WAY, AT THE END OF ALL THE EXERCISE COMES AN AWARD IN MANY FORMS,THESE AWARDS REWARDS ARE ACHIEVEMENTS ENCOURAGE FURTHER IMPROVEMENT BUT THE PURSUIT OF HIS EXERCISE IS WITHOUT THINKING ABOUT THE AWARD,
THIS. IS. EQUAL”TO. KARMA YOGA
LORD KRISHNA SAYS,TREATING ALIKE. VICTORY AND DEFEAT, GAIN AND LOSS, PLEASURE AND PAIN . GET READY FOR THE FIGHT, THEN FIGHTING THUS YOU WILL NOT INCUR SIN,
THIS LEADS TO BUILD AN INNER STRENGTH IN MAN OR WOMEN AND DEVELOPS CONFIDENCE,
PEOPLE THINK THAT GAMES AND SPORTS ARE WASTAGE OF TIME, ENERGY AND LEARNING ABILITY, THE NEGATIVE ATTITUDE TOWARD GAMES AND SPORTS OR SIMPLE PHYSICAL EXERCISE IS BRINGING MANY PROBLEMS OF SELF DISCIPLINE, SOCIAL BEHAVIOR PERSONAL HYGIENE AND HEALTH BOTH PHYSICAL AND MENTAL.
WE HAVE MANY WORDS IN OUR LITERATURE TO PRACTICE AS A DAILY ROUTINE TO LEAVE A HEALTHY PERSONAL AND SOCIAL LIFE AND LIVE LONGER,AS A KARMA YOGI,
THE ANCIENT INDIAN LITERATURE SAY THAT BY PRACTICING PHYSICAL EXERCISES AND YOGA ONE DOES HIS DUTY WELL AND AND BECOMES A PRODUCTIVE MEMBER OF THE SOCIETY,
THE GURU KULAS WERE THE ANCIENT SCHOOLS OF LEARNING WHERE THE TRUE TEACHING WAS GIVEN TO MAKE A MAN PERFECT BODY, SOUL AND MIND
THE FIRST LESSON USED TO BE MORNING PHYSICAL EXERCISES IN DIFFERENT FORMS,RUNNING, JOGGING, WALKING, WRESTLING, ARCHERY ,HORSE RIDING SWORD FIGHTING, CUTTING WOOD. GARDENING, LOOKING AFTER DOMESTIC ANIMALS,ETC.

DIVINE BROTHERS AND MORE DIVINE SISTERS LEADING A DAILY MEDITATIVE LIFE AS TOLD BY SWAMIJI IN MY MEDITATION EARLY MORNING IN THE HOUSE ASHA NAZRABAR IN HER HOUSE IN USA, WE ALL ARE VERY LUCKY THAT WE ARE MEDITATING IN GROUP EVERY DAY AND PRACTICING IN OUR HOUSE TOO, AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. BY THE GRACE OF SWAMIJI,AND LORD SHIVA, HIS GURU,WE ARE VERY FORTUNATE INDEED,
TODAY WE ARE ENJOYING GITA. AND. RENUNCIATIONOF ACTION”: ACCORDING TO. PT.BALAGANGA DHARA. TILAKA—-SONALSRIVASTAVA
SO FAR. AS. THE ETHICAL PHILOSOPHY OF GITA. IS. CONCERNED, THERE IS NO DOUBT AS HAS BEEN SHOWN FOREGOING CHAPTERS, THAT. IT SETS VERY HIGH VALUE ON THE MORALE EXCELLENCE OF THE IDEA OF DOING ONE'S DUTY AND PERFORMING ALL ACTION
SELFLESSLY,(. NIS KAMA)
AMONG MODERN. COMMENTATORS TILAK. TILAK WAS THE FIRST TO REGISTER
A. VIGOROUS COMMENTARY ON THE BHAGAVAD GITA, AND AT THE SAME TIME. HE WAS A. HE WAS A VEHEMENT CRITIC OF SANKARA'S VIEW THAT THE GITA SUPPORTED SAMNYASA AS THE IDEAL OF LIFE, NOW THE QUESTION ARISES . WHAT IS THE MEANING OF RENUNCIATION? INDEED ,RENUNCIATION IS AT THE CORE OF SPIRITUAL LIFE,THE LITERAL MEANING OF RENUNCIATION IS DESERTION, ABANDONMENT, REJECTION, AND DENUNCIATION,
RENUNCIATION IN GITA DOES NOT MEAN ABANDONING THE DUTIES,OF OUR EVERYDAY LIVED LIFE
ARGUMENTS OF TILAK—-THE GITA WAS. PRESENTED EITHER AS A PASTIME FOR PERSONS,TIRED OUT AFTER LIVING A WORLDLY LIFE, ITS MAIN PURPOSE IS. TO REVEAL HOW ONE SHOULD LIVE HIS WORLDLY LIFE AND TO POINT OUT OUR TRUE DUTY,IN WORLDLY LIFE,
RENUNCIATION ACCORDING TO TILAKA. PT.BALA GANGADHARAN TILAKA IN HIS BITA RAHASYA GOES A STEP FURTHER AND SAYS THAT GITA. INSTEAD OF TEACHING RENUNCIATION,OF ANY KIND PREACHES ENERGISM(. KARMA YOGA)LAW OF KARMA,OR ACTION SIDDHIS ATTAINED BY NOT GIVING UP ACTION,BUT. CONTINUALLY PERFORMING ACTION .NOT FOR PERSONAL GAIN.
ACCORDING TO HIM RENUNCIATION IS WHAT EVERY MAN DOES, MUST BE TAKEN TO HAVE BEEN DONE BY HIM FOR THE PURPOSE OF SACRIFICE,IN THIS SACRIFICE NO ACTION IS UNDERTAKEN FOR PERSONALGAIN, IT IS PERFORMED FOR THE COLLECTIVE GAIN OF ALL.
THE TRUE IDEALS OF GITA IS NOT SACRIFICE FOR HUMANITY BUT SERVICE TO HUMANITY,
IT IS SERVICE FOR FOR ITS OWN SAKE AND NOT FOR ANY PERSONAL GAIN
GO ON PERFORMING ACTION, ACTION IS SUPERIOR TO INACTION,
THE MERIT OF THE KARMA YOGI IS MORE THAN THAT OF
THE KARMA SANYASIN THEREFORE BECOME A. KARMA. YOGI

ONE OF THE MOST CHERISHED AND WIDELY READ SCRIPTURES,THE BHAGAVAD GITA,
HAS INSPIRED AND TRANSFORMED MANY INDIANS AND FOREIGN SCHOLARS,
THE FIRST ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF THE BHAGAVAD GITA WAS DONE BY SIR. CHARLES. WILKINS,WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY SIR WARREN HASTINGS
ITS INTENSIVE INFLUENCE CAN BE SEEN IN ITS TRANSLATION, IN NUMEROUS LANGUAGES ACROSS THE WORLD, ALDOUS HUXLEY WAS SO DEEPLY MESMERISED BY THE TEXT THAT
HE CALLED THE GITA AS,ONE OF THE. CLEAREST AND MOST COMPREHENSIVE SUMMARIES, OF PERENNIAL PHILOSOPHY, EVER TO HAVE BEEN MADE, HUXLEY. BELIEVES THAT THE. ENDURING VALUES DEPICTED IN THE GITA IS NOT ONLY RELEVANT FOR THE INDIANS BUT FOR ALL MANKIND,
HE THUS REMARKS. THE BHAGVAT GITA IS PERHAPS. THE MOST SYSTEMATIC, SPIRITUAL STATEMENT OF THE PERENNIAL PHILOSOPHICAL POEM IN THE WORLD'S.LITERATURE,
WE OFTEN TEND TO OVERLOOK,THE LITERARY VALUE OF THE GITA, BY. EMPHASISING ON THE PHILOSOPHICAL ASPECTS, ONE OF THE BEST ENGLISH VERSIONS OF THE GITA WHICH HAS ENDEARED ITSELF TO MORE THAN ONE GENERATIONOF READERS WAS MADE
BY. SIR, EDWIN ARNOLD AS THE SONG CELESTIAL WHICH WAS PUBLISHED IN 1885, ARNOLD'S TRANSLATION IS EQUALLY POETIC,AND MEANINGFUL AS THAT OF THE ORIGINAL IN ONE OF ITS MOST BEAUTIFUL PASSAGES, ARNOLD RENDERS THE FUNDAMENTAL DOCTRINE OF THE HINDU RELIGIOUS,BELIEF
THUS:NEVER THE SPIRIT WAS BORN THE SPIRIT SHALL CEASE TO BE NEVER. END AND BEGINNING ARE DREAMS,
KRISNA SAYS TO ARJUNA,WHO IN HIS HONEST AND HONOURABLE
BEWILDERMENT CONFESSES THAT HE CANNOT SLAY HIS OWN KINSMEN,
AND FRIENDS EVEN IF THEY ARE GUILTY, KRISNA GOES ON TO EXPLAIN THAT END OF BIRTH IS DEATH AND THE END OF THE DEATH IS NEW BIRTH.

DIVINE BROTHERS AND. ORE DIVINE SISTERS LEADING A MEDITATIVE LIFE DAILY.
FOR SELF REALIZATION AND GOD REALIZATION PREFERABLY IN THE PRESENT LIFE ITSELF,
WE HAVE TO DO LITTLE ONLY REST WILL BE DONE BY SWAMIJI AND HIS GURU. LORD SHIVA, SO OUR WORK WILL BE LESS. BUT WE. UST DO OUR BEST IF POSSIBLE,
LET US AS USUAL LEARN ABOUT KARMA YOGA AND TODAY WE ARE LEARNING MARKS OF A KARMA YOGI THE INTELLECT OF A. KARMA YOGI IS DETERMINATE, HIS GOAL IS.
DETERMINED,,HIS GOAL IS GOD—REALIZATION ALONE,
WHEN A STRIVER SETS UP HIS GOAL OR HIS GOAL IS FIXED THEN MEANS OF ATTAINING THAT GOAL COME OF THEMSELVES, ALL HIS. WORKS OR THOUGHTS ARE. DIRECTED TOWARDS THAT END, THE KARMA YOGI HAS MASTERED HIS ALL SENSES,
IT IS. VERY ESSENTIAL FOR A KARMA YOGI,TO SUBDUE HIS SENSES, IF HIS SENSES ARE NOT UNDER. CONTROL HE CAN DEVIATE FROM THE RIGHT PATH, IF HIS SENSES ARE NOT UNDER CONTROL HE CANNOT RENDER SELFLESS SERVICE TO OTHERS FOR THEIR WELFARE,
LORD KRISNA. IN GITA. LAYS,SPECIAL EMPHASIS ON CONTROL OF THE SENSES,IN THE DISCIPLINE OF KARMA YOGA, HE DECLARES CONTROLLING THE SENSES FROM THE BEGINNING, SENSES ARE SAID TO BE SUBDUED WHEN THEY ARE FREE FROM ATTACHMENT AND AVERSION, WHEN THEY BECOME FREE FROM ATTACHMENT AND AVERSION THEY CAN NOT DEFLECT THE MIND OTHERWISE THEY RUN AFTER
SENSE ENJOYMENTS,
THEREFORE A REAL KARMAYOGI HAS HIS SENSES FULLY UNDER CONTROL,HE REMAINS ALWAYS ON HIS GUARD, AND NEVER FEELS PROUD OF SUCH SENSE—CONTROL
IMPURITIES IN THE FORM OF LIKES AND DISLIKES DO NOT EXIST IN HIS
MIND HE CAN NOT. REMAIN EQUABLE IN. SUCCESS AND FAILURE,
TO REMAIN EQUIPOISED IN ACCOMPLISHMENT OR NONACCOMPLISHMENT OF ACTION AND GETTING ITS FRUIT,
A STRIVER A KARMA YOGI IDENTIFIES HIMSELF WITH ALL BEINGS,
GOD IS THE SELF OF ALL BEINGS, FROM BRAHMA THE CREATOR,TO TINNIEST BLADE OF GRASS, THEREFORE HE WHO REGARDS GOD AS THE INNER. CONTROLLER, PERFORMS ALL HIS/HER ACTIONS ACCORDING TO GOD'S PROMPTING AND GUIDANCE AND HE/SHE HAS. NO SENSE OF MINE, HE/SHE SERVES ALL THE NEEDY.
IT IS THE NATURE OF KARMA YOGI TO BE GENEROUS, GENEROSITY IS GENERATED WHEN A KARMA YOGI IDENTIFIES HIMSELF WITH WITH THE SOUL OF ALL OTHERS.

ATTAIN. THE BLISSFUL SUPREME STATE,
THE ABOVE VERSES POINTS TO THE GOAL OF A NIS KAMA KARMA YOGI,
THIS GOAL IS THE. ATTAINMENT OF THE SUPERNAL ABODE OF ETERNAL HAPPINESS,
HAPPINESS IS THE INCENTIVE TO ALL ACTION IN THE WORLD, IT PROCEEDS FROM. LOVE. AND NORMALLY EXTENDS TO ONES FAMILY OTHER DEPENDENTS AND FRIENDS, WITH THE GROWTH OF THE SOUL,
HOWEVER, LOVE. EXPANDS AND COVERS. THE COMMUNITY, COUNTRY, AND FINALLY THE WORLD AT LARGE, INCLUDING WITHIN ITS ORBIT MEN AS WELL,AS OTHER CREATURES, AT THIS ADVANCED STAGE UNITY OF ALL LIFE IS REALIZED, WHICH BRINGS ETERNAL HAPPINESS, TO THE KARMA YOGI,
THIS IS WHAT IS MEANT BY REALIZATION OF GOD, BY. THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN HIS/HER EXISTENCE,
ALL LIVING BEINGS. ENGAGE,THEMSELVES IN ACTION IN CONSTANT PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS, AMONG THEM MAN WHO IS ENDOWED WITH DISCRETION, ACTS
WITH KNOWLEDGE AND A WILL, HE/SHE IS THEREFORE RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS/HER
ACTION,
BEINGS OCCUPYING A LOSER LEVEL,OF EXISTENCE STAND AT A DIFFERENT FOOTING ALL TOGETHER, NATURE HAS NOT BLESSED THEM WITH DISCRETION, THEY ACT BY INSTINCT AND ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR ACTION,
KARMA IS. A NECESSITY OF LIFE, WITHOUT KARMA. EXISTENCE ITSELF WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE, IF KARMA IS ACTION DONE AS ONE’S DUTY, WITHOUT ATTACHMENT AND A DESIRE FOR FRUIT, IT IS SATVIK,IN QUALITY,

TODAY WE WILL ENJOY KARMA YOGA. IN. UPANISHAD, ISA. VASYA UPANISHAD. 2)
IT. MEANS. BY PERFORMING ONLY. “KARMA,”. HEARING THIS WORD, A QUALIFIED ONE. SHOULD DESIRE TO LIVE. A FULL TERM OF. HUNDRED YEARS,THERE IS NO OTHER PATH THAN THIS,WHEREBY ACTIONS MAY NOT CLING TO YOU”
THE QUESTION. IS. HOW A MAN CAN ENJOY PEACE IN THE PRESENT LIFE AS WELL AS IN THE FUTURE, HOW SHOULD A MAN LIVE SO THAT HE MAY REMEMBER THAT OUT OF THE EIGHTY FOUR LAKHS OF FORMS OF EXISTENCE,ONLY. MAN’S. LIFE IS. SUCH WHERE ONE ENJOYS THE FRUITS OF HIS ACTIONS, PERFORMED IN THE PREVIOUS LIVES. BUT HE ALSO HAS THE RIGHT AND POWER TO PERFORM NEW. ACTIONS,THIS SPECIES OF LIFE THEREFORE IS KNOWN AS, EXISTENCE. OF ACTIVE LIFE, EXCEPT MAN'S LIFE ACTS. AND ACTIVITIES OF THE ORGANS OF SENSES. MIND AND INTELLECT ARE RECKONED AS. VIRTUOUS, OR SINFUL, AND THEY RESULT IN GOOD OR. BAD FRUITS, SUCH IS NOT THE CASE WITH OTHER,FORMS OF LIFE,FOR INSTANCE IN THE CASE OF A DOG OR A PIG,WHATEVER IT EATS OR DOES GOOD OR BAD, EVEN IF IT INDULGES IN INTERCOURSE WITH ITS OWN MOTHER, IT DOES NOT BECOME GUILTY OF ANY SIN BECAUSE THESE LIVES ARE MEANT SIMPLY TO WORK OUT FRUITS OF THEIR PAST LIVES. BUT IN THE CASE OF. HUMAN LIFE ONE CAN NOT ESCAPE THE SIN
BY ADVANCING THE ARGUMENT THAT HE HAS NO KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH SIN,
HE CAN NOT FREE HIMSELF OF SINS ON SUCH GROUND
AN ACTION DONE WITH THE SAME MOTIVE OR DESIRE IN IT ALWAYS BINDS A MAN SO IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO AVOID MOTIVATED ACTIONS EVEN IF IT DOES NOT FALL INTO CATEGORY OF FORBIDDEN ACTIONS HUMAN BEINGS ARE DOOMED TO GO TO EVEN HELLS,
THEREFORE INORDER TO KEEP FREE FROM BONDAGEOF KARMA,
ONE SHOULD AVOID MOTIVATED ACTIONS AND ALSO KEEP A GREAT DISTANCE FROM COMMITTING SINS,
IT IS ONLY IN THIS HUMAN LIFE THAT A MAN CAN FREE HIMSELF FROM THE BONDAGE OF ACTIONS,NOT ONLY BONDAGE OF PRESENT ACTION BUT HE/SHE HAS THE POWER TO WASH AWAY EVEN ALL HIS ACCUMULATED DEEDS OF PAST LIVES

SELFLESS SERVICE IS ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL AND EFFECTIVE AIDS,IN THE PURIFICATION OF MIND,THROUGH KARMAYOGA, YOU ALLOW YOUR ENERGIES TO BE UTILIZED IN A DYNAMIC WAY,WHEN YOUR ENERGIES ARE. NOT WELL UTILISED YOU ARE INCLINED TO TAMAS, INERTIA,NEGATIVITY AND DULLNESS WHEN YOU ARE TAMASIKA
YOUR MIND BECOMES LIKE A TRANSISTOR, RADIO. TUNED TO DISCORDANT MUSIC, THAT. EMANATES FROM SO MANY OTHER NEGATIVE MINDS,
WHEN YOU KEEP YOUR MIND INVOLVED IN PERFORMING ACTION THAT IS IRES AND PURIFIES YOU RISE BEYOND THE NEGATIVE SENTIMENTS THAT. CLOUD YOUR MIND,YOU BEGIN TO REALIZETHAT. THE THINGS THAT CREATED ANGER, HATE , AND JEALOUSY IN YOUR HEART MEAN NOTHING,
KARMA YOGA. IS A PROCESS OF. SPIRITUALIZING ALL ACTIVITY WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT YOUR ENTIRE LIFE. CAN BECOME AN ARTISTIC PROCESS LEADING TO SELF —REALIZATIONIMBUED WITH THIS UNDERSTANDING A KARMA YOGI CONCERTS EVERY ASPECT OF HIS WORK INTO AN ACT OF MEDITATION AND PRAYER,
A KARMA YOGI DEVELOPS THE ATTITUDE OF RENOUNCING OR SURRENDERING THE FRUIT OF ACTION, WITHOUT LOOKING FOR AN EGOISTIC REWARDS OF CARING WHETHER SOMEONE ONE ELSE IS THERE TO APPRECIATE HIS ACTIONS HE PERFORMS HIS DUTIES,TO THE BEST OF HIS ABILITY, WITH AN INTERNAL SENSE OF INTEGRITY ALTHOUGH HE MAKES THE EFFORT TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN EVERY PROJECT EVEN IF HIS ACTIONS
DO NOT YIELD THE EXPECTED OUTCOME,HE WILL CONTINUE TO PERFORM HIS DUTIES,WITH PATIENCE BY. NOT BEING ATTACHED TO THE FRUITS OF ACTIONS,HE IS ABLE TO STAY BALANCED IN GAIN AND LOSS AND WILL NOT BE HEARTBROKEN OVER THE VICISSITUDES OF LIFE,
THE HUMAN HEART IS CONSTANTLY REASSURED BY THE URGE TO DISCOVER ITS ONENESS,WITH THE DIVINE SELF THROUGH ACTS OF GOODNESS, KINDNESS, GENEROSITY,SELF EFFACING, LOVE AND MAGNANIMITY
AS A KARMA YOGI,AN ASPIRANT CULTIVATES HIS URGE IN ORDER TO ATTAIN MENTAL PURITY AND TO MOVE ON TO THE HEIGHTS OF SPIRITUAL REALIZATION.

A VERY. COMMON PHRASES OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE. IS USED. AS SPORTSMANSHIP, THIS MEANS THAT ANY HAPPENING GOOD OR BAD IS TAKEN LIKE A SPORTS PERSON, A. PERSON TOTALLY DEVOTED TO HIS SPORT OR PHYSICAL WORK,IS NOT WORRIED ABOUT THE RESULTS, THE PERSON TAKES BOTH WINS. AND. DEFEATSEQUALLYIN A BALANCED WAY,HE OR SHE KNOWS THAT HIS OR HER WORK IS TO DO PRACTICE TO PERFECTION,, NO. DOUBT ONE BECOMES HAPPY. WHEN WINS BUT DOES NOT BECOME VERY UNHAPPY WHEN LOSES A GAME OR SPORT, TAKES IT IN HIS HER STRIDE, EVERY FAILED ATTEMPT TEACHES A LESSON TO DO THE EXERCISE OR PRACTICE IN MORE INTENSE AND SINCERE WAY,
IN OTHER WORDS YOU ARE TO DO YOUR DUTY YOUR WORK AND YOUR PRACTICE THE SAME WAY ,AT THE END OF ALL THE EXERCISE COMES THE END RESULT, AN AWARD IN MANY FORMS OR ANY FORM, THESE AWARDS REWARDS OR ACHIEVEMENT ENCOURAGE FURTHER EXERCISE BUT THE PURSUIT OF HIS EXERCISE IS WITHOUT THINKING ABOUT THE AWARD, THIS IS. GIST OF KARMA YOGA,
LORD KRISNA SAYS, TREATING ALIKE VICTORY AND DEFEAT GAIN AND LOSS,PLEASURE
AND PAIN GET READY FOR THE FIGHT, FIGHTING THUS YOU WILL NOT INCUR SIN,
THIS LEADS TO BUILD AN INNER STRENGTH IN MAN OR WOMAN AND DEVELOPS CONFIDENCE PEOPLE THINK THAT GAMES AND SPORTS ARE SIMPLE WASTAGE OF TIME ENERGY,AND LEARNING ABILITY, THE NEGATIVE ATTITUDE TOWARDS GAMES AND SPORTS,OR SIMPLE PHYSICAL EXERCISE,IS BRINGING MANY PROBLEMS OF SELF DISCIPLINE, SOCIAL BEHAVIOR, PERSONAL HYGIENE AND HEALTH BOTH PHYSICAL AND MENTAL,
WE HAD MANY WORDS IN OUR LITERATURE TO PRACTICE DAILY YOU GO TO FOOTBALL FIELD,, IF YOUR. BICEPSWILL BE STRONG YOU WILL UNDERSTAND THE MIGHT OF ARJUNA,
ANOTHER POPULAR PHRASE IS ALMOST LAW OF SPORTS THAT IS IF YOU LOSE YOUR TEMPER YOU LOSE THE GAME, THIS IS A BIG LESSON TO BECOME A KARMA YOGI,
THE KARMA YOGI HAS TO DO MAINLY TWO TYPES OF KARMA 0NE FOR HIMSELF,AND SECOND FOR THE SOCIETY, OR THE COMMUNITY
THE KARMA YOGI UNDERSTANDS HIS BODY AND MIND AND COORDINATES, IT. PROPERLY,
PHYSICAL EDUCATION TEACHES TO ACT CORRECTLY, COURAGEOUSLY AND CONFIDENTIALITY AND THIS IS THE TREND OF A. KARMA YOGI,
A KARMA YOGI MUST BE VERY STRONG AS FOR AS THE MORAL VALUE, IS CONCERNED,HE SHOULD WORK HONESTLY
THIS IS THE TIME OF KNOWLEDGE ECONOMY, MARKET ECONOMY,AND GLOBAL ECONOMY,

HUMAN LIFE IS GIVEN BY GOD. IT IS NOT GAINED BY US, IT IS NOT GIVEN BY GOD ALWAYS,E, BUT ONLY WHEN GOD PLANS TO GIVE OUT OF HIS MERCY,
WE MUST FOLLOW THE GOD FROM CHILDHOOD TILL DEATH,
TODAY WE ARE 3NJOYING IDEAL KARMA YOGI. —-LORD. SRI. KRISNA,
LORD KRISNA. IN GITA. CHAPTER I I I. VERSES 22. TO. 24 SAYS. THAT THERE. IS. NOTHING IN THE THREE. WORLDS,O. ARJUNA THAT. IS. FOR ME TO DO, NOR IS THERE ANYTHING UNATTAINED,THAT SHOULD BE ACHIEVED: YET. I. ENGAGE MYSELF IN ACTION, FURTHER. THE LORD SAYS THAT I. CEASELESSLY PERFORM ACTIONS WITH CARE WITH NO SELFISH MOTIVE
HE. THUS. SETS AN IDEAL BEFORE COMMON ASPIRING PEOPLE TO ENGAGE IN ACTIONS. WITHOUT ANY SELF INTEREST,ONLY FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE,SO THAT THEY MAY GET SALVATION EASILY AS ABOVE SAID THAT GOD HAS NOTHING TO DO FOR HIMSELF
YET HE INCARNATES FOR THE WELFARE OF OTHERS,AND PERFORMS ACTIONS, FOR THE PROTECTION OF THE GOOD,FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF WICKED, AND FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
THE LORD CREATES THE UNIVERSE, ALSO FOR THE SALVATION OF BEINGS, HE HAS CREATED HEAVENS SO THAT BEINGS MAY REAP THE FRUIT OF THEIR VIRTUOUS ACTIONS, EIGHTY FOUR LACS FORMS OF LIVES AND HELL HAVE BEEN CREATED SO THAT BEINGS MAY REAP THE FRUITS OF THEIR EVIL ACTIONS, WHILE HUMAN LIFE HAS BEEN CREATED SO THAT A HUMAN BEING HAVING TRANSCENDED VIRTUES AND VICES MAY ATTAIN GOD REALIZATION
THIS IS POSSIBLE. ONLY WHEN HE DOES NOTHING FOR HIMSELF, ALL HIS ACTIVITIES, ACTIONS WITH THE GROSS BODY THINKING, OF THE SUBTLE BODY AND SAMADHI(. TRANCE) wITH CAUSAL BODY SHOULD BE PERFORMED FOR THE WELFARE OF THE WORLD,
THE REASON IS THAT THIS THREE FOLD BODY IS NOT ONE'S OWN, BUT IT BELONGS TO THE WORLD OR TO GOD
THEREFORE A KARMA YOGI CONSIDERS THE BODY THE SENSES MIND, INTELLECTECT BELONG TO GOD. WHO SETS AN EXAMPLE OF HIS OWN,THAT IF YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE SALVATION OR COME BACK TO ME YOU SHOULD FOLLOW MY EXAMPLE.
OF PERFORMING ACTIONS WITHOUT ANY SELFISH MOTIVE AND WITHOUT ATTACHMENT. AS THE LORD ALWAYS DOES HIS DUTY.

A KARMA YOGI OR A HOUSEHOLD SHOULD POSSESS THE VIRTUE OF SELF SACRIFICE TO A REMARKABLE DEGREE, THAT KARMA YOGI OR THE HOUSEHOLDER HOLDERWHO SACRIFICES HIS BODY FOR A NOBLE CAUSE REACHES THE SAME GOAL THAT IS ATTAINED BY A RAJYOGI THROUGH ASAMPRAJNATA SAMADHI OR BY A HATHA YOGA THROUGH AWAKENING OF THE

DIVINE BROTHERS AND MORE DIVINE SISTERS LEADING A SPIRITUAL LIFE WITH DAILY MEDITATION AND FOLLOWING GITA OF LORD SRI KRISHNA,
TODAY WE WILL ENJOY. GOSPEL OFTHE GITA, BY. SWAMI. JAGA ADISWARANANDA
THE GOSPEL. OF THE GITA IS A RELIGION OF DUTY. WHICH AIMS. AT. THE. WHOLESALE, RESALE SPIRITUALIZATION OF LIFE. IN A MAJORITY OF CASES,
RELIGION IS. SEGREGATE TO A CORNER OF MAN’S. LIFE RELIGION MUST PERVADE OUR ENTIRE LIFE INNER. AND OUTER, RELIGION AND LIFE MUST NOT BE SEPARATED,THEY SHOULD NOT BE TREATED AS WATERTIGHT,COMPARTMENTS EVERY PORTION OF. OUR DAILY LIFE SHOULD BE TRANSFORMED INTO A DIVINE LIFE BUT. THERE ARE PSYCHOLOGICAL MOMENTS IN LIFE WHEN MAN SHRINKS FROM DUTY, THAT IS WHAT HAPPENED IN THE. CASE OF ARJUNA, THE REPRESENTATIVE MAN EVERY BODY LIKE ARJUNA PASSES THROUGH A PERIOD OF DESPONDENCY WHICH THE MYSTICS DESCRIBE AS THE DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL
IT WAS ON SUCH A MOMENT THAT SRI KRISHNA EXPLAINS TO ARJUNA THE BEAUTIE, OF GITA. - DHARMA, WHICH HAS A UNIVERSAL APPEAL,TO MEN OF ALL. CLASSES, LIFE ITSELF BECOMES RELIGION WHEN DUTY IS DONE WITH. DETACHMENT
UNDUE EAGERNESS FOR RESULT IS A MARK OF ATTACHMENT
IT IS DISPASSION THAT CONVERTS LIFE INTO RELIGION,
RIGHTLY DID THE GREAT GERMAN MYSTIC. GOETHE EXCLAIM ”THOU SHALT RENOUNCE RENOUNCE,,THAT IS THE ETERNAL SONG,WHICH RINGS IN
EVERYONE'S EARS,—-WHICH OUR WHOLE LIFE LONG EVERY HOUR
IS HOARSELY SINGING TO US,”
WE. KNOW HOW BROTHER. LAWRENCETRIEDTO VISUALIZETHE PRESENCE OF GOD,WHILE PERFORMING HIS DUTY OF COOKING, WHEN MAN DOES HIS DUTY WITHOUT ATTACHMENT, WORK BECOMES WORSHIP, AND THE LINE OF DEMARCATION BETWEEN SECULAR AND SACRED IS. OBLITERATED,
SRI. KRISNA CLEARLY SAYS IN THE GITA THAT MEN CAN ATTAIN PERFECTION BY WORSHIPPING THE DEITY WITH HIS OWN(SWA). KARMA OR DUTY, THE MOTIVE OF GITA IS DEVOTION TO THE DISCHARGE OF ONE”S SOCIAL OBLIGATIONS ASRAMA DHARMA,AND VARNA DHARMA,
THE GERMAN DOCTRINE OF ACTIVISM TAUGHT BY RUDOLF EUCKEN
AND THE AMERICAN DOCTRINE OF PRAGMATISM PRESENTED BY JAMES ARE WESTERN PARALLELS,OF THE KARMA YOGA,EXPOUNDED IN THE GITA,
SRI KRISNA. BEAUTIFULLY SAYS THAT ONE'S OWN DHARMA IS ALWAYS BEST FOR HIM, AND IT IS BETTER TO DIE IN ONE'S OWN SWA DHARMA THAN TO ADOPT PARA DHARMA
IT IS MISTAKE TO SUPPOSE THAT ANY PARTICULAR WORK IS HIGH OR LOW
IF CHITTA SUDDHI OR MENTAL PURIFICATION IS THE AIM OF ALL WORK THAT CAN BE ATTAINED BY DOING ONE'S DUTY WITH DETACHMENT,
A SWEEPER CAN AS WELL ATTAIN THIS STATE OF MIND BY DOING HIS DUTY WITH DETACHMENT, DUTY OF SWEEPING AND REMOVING OF NIGHT SOIL AS A PROFESSOR THROUGH HIS LEARNED DISCOURSE AND LECTURES, EACH IN HIS PLACE IS BEST,IN THE VYADHA GITA WE READ THAT THE BUTCHER BECAME A SAINT,BY DETACHED PERFORMANCE OF HIS VOCATIONAL DUTY,THE GITA DISCOVERS GOLDEN MEAN BETWEEN ACTIVISM AND QUIET INACTION AND CONTEMPLATION AND COMBINES WORK AND WORSHIP,SERVICE AND MEDITATION,ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY NOBODY CAN ABSTAIN ALTOGETHER ,NO ONE CAN ABSOLUTELY ABSTAIN FROM WORKAS LONG AS HE BREATHES,
AGAIN IT IS HARD TO DIFFERENTIATE GOOD ACTING FROM A BAD ONE FOR INTRICATE IS THE WAY OF ACTION HENCE TO WORK
IT IS DUE TO IGNORANCE OF LACK,OF WISDOM ON OUR PART THAT IN ORDER TO SERVE OUR MINER INTERESTS WE NEGLECT OUR GREATER AND TRUER INTEREST VINZ.GOD REALIZATION ON. ACCOUNT OF THIS IGNORANCE WE DO NOT REALISE THE INESTIMABLE LOSS WE SUFFER THERE BY ,AND WHAT LITTLE FAITH WE HAVE IN THIS LOSS ISN'T FREE FROM DOUBT,
FOR THE SUPREME BLISS AND SUPREME PEACE OF WHICH WE READ SO MUCH IN BOOKS WE HAVE NEVER TASTED
THE SCRIPTURES AND SAINTS EXHORT US WITHONE VOICE TO GIVE UP THE DESIRE FOR HONOUR,AND FAME AS SOMETHING EXCEEDINGLY HARMFUL THEY ARE THORNS ON THE PATH OF GOD REALIZATION,THE RETARD THE PROGRESS OF THE ASPIRANT IN HIS GODWARD JOURNEY
KARMA YOGA IS. DESCRIBED AS WORK WITHOUT ATTACHMENT AND WITHOUT DESIRE,FOR THE FRUITS OF ACTION,

DAILY MEDITATIVE LIFETAKING BEST CARE OF HEALTH OF SELF AND ALL FAMILY MEMBERS SPECIFICALLY FROM PANDEMICS OF CORONA AND OTHERS,
TODAY WE WILL ENJOY. KARMA YOGA AN EASY PATH FOR ALL SPIRITUAL ASPIRANTS. BY. DR. ARJUNA. AGGARWAL
SPIRITUALITY IS THE STUDY OF SELF, AND WHAT IS SELF ?
SELF IS. WHAT WE HAVE FORGOTTEN COMPLETELY, FOR US SELF IS THE BODY, THE NAME ATTACHED TO IT THE RELATIONS AND THE TITLES, AND THE WEALTH ATTACHED TO IT,
WE NEED TO REMIND OURSELVES THAT. WE ALL ARE. SPIRITUAL BEINGS WHO HAVE COME TO EARTH TO HAVE HUMAN EXPERIENCE,
TO REACH TO OUR TRUE SELF WE NEED TO BE AWARE OF OUR TRUE
NATURE THE TRUE NATURE OF THE SELF, THE. SOUL,
SPIRITUALITY IS AN EVOLVING PROCESS WHERE THE CONSTANT AWARENESS OF OUR ACTIONS TAKES US TO THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF LIBERATION, IN THIS PROCESS OF LIBERATION THERE IS A PATH TO BE FOLLOWED, AND FOR ALL SPIRITUAL SEEKERS, THE PATH OF KARMA YOGA IS MOST DESIRED,
WHAT IS THE PATH OF KARMA YOGA? WHAT IS KARMA? HOW DO WE CREATE KARMA,IN THIS LIFE AND MANY MORE LIFE TIMES.? KARMA MEANS ACTIONS,THIS INCLUDES ALL ACTIONS, PERFORMED BY AN INDIVIDUAL FROM BIRTH TO DEATH,IT NEEDS TO INVOLVE THE PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL BEING OF OURSELVES,
WE LIVE OUR LIFE ON THIS EARTH,WHICH IS THE RESULT OF OUR KARMA, WE CREATE KARMA AND CREATE MANY MORE LIFE TIMES DUE TO KARMA BUT DO WE KNOW THAT HOW LONG WE ARE GOING TO LIVE IN THIS LIFE AND HOW MANY KARMAS WE ARE CREATING ?
THERE IS NO ANSWER TO THAT,, BECAUSE WE ARE NOT AWARE OF THE QUALITY OF LIFE
WE ARE LIVING AS HUMANS, WE WORRY FOR OUR FUTURE AND WE REGRET FOR OUR PAST, WE CURSE OUR PRESENT BLAMING, OUR FATE,AND DREADING OUR DESTINY.

DIVINE BROTHERS AND MORE DIVINE SISTERS IN DAILY MEDITATION,TAKING BEST CARE OF HEALTH FOR SELF AND ALL FAMILY MEMBERS AND FRIENDS, DUE TO A LOCAL PROGRAMMING LOCALITY HAVE BEEN ASKED FOR A LECTURE 0N. NATIONAL. SELFHELPING GROUP. THEREFORE TODAY THE MEDITATION PROGRAM WILL BE. LITTLE REDUCED FOR TIMELY ATTENDING THE PROGRAM.HOWEVER WE REQUEST ALL BROTHERS AND SISTERS TO DO YOUR MEDITATION AS YOU DO DAILY,AS PER YOUR TIME,
TODAY WE ENJOY. KARMA YOGA. THE EVENTUAL PATH FOR SELF REALIZATION
PRACTICED WITH MIND AND BODY WE CAN SERVE A POOR SICK PERSON LYING ON THE ROAD, BY GIVING HIM SOME WATER OR MILK,TO DRINK,AND CHEER HIM UP,WITH SOME SWEET ENCOURAGING WORDS, WE CAN TAKE HIM INA CARRIAGE AND TAKE HIM TO NEAREST HOSPITAL AND IF WE DO NOT HAVE MONEY TO PAY FOR THE CARRIAGE WE CAN CARRY HIM ON OUR BACK, INTO THE HOSPITAL,
ONCE I SAW A PERSON NEAR MY HOUSE GOING LEFT AND RIGHT MANY TIMES, I WENT TO HELP HIM BUT MY FRIEND NEARBY TOLD ME SIR, HE APPEARS TO BE DRUNK, I AM OBSERVING HIM FOR LAST ONE HOUR, IT APPEARS DUE TO TOO MUCH DRINKING HE HAS FORGOTTEN HIS HOUSE, WE BOTH. TOOK HIM AND ASKING LOCAL PERSONS FOUND HIS HOUSE AND SENT HIM TO HIS FAMILY MEMBERS INSIDE.I CAN CLAIM IT AS A SERVICE,WHILE WALKING I COME ACROSS MANY USING CIGARETTES ETC, AND I TELL THEM WHETHER THEIR WIFE KNOWS IT AND ASK HOW MUCH MONEY YOU ARE WASTING AT THE COST OF YOUR HEALTH TOO, MOST SAY I WILL STOP IT, THANK YOU VERY MUCH, I DO NOT BELIEVE THEM AND PRAY GOD TO HELP THEM,
PRACTICING KARMA YOGA FREES US FROM LUST, GREED, ANGER, AND EGOISM AND MAKES US FEARLESS AND A LARGE HEARTED PERSON, IT HELPS IN LEADING A SIMPLE LIFE AND REPOSING FAITH IN OURSELVES, THE SCRIPTURES AND THE GOD
IT ALSO HELPS IN BEARING INSULT, DISRESPECT, DISHONOR, CENSURE, INFAMY, DISGRACE, HARSH WORDS, HEAT AND COLD,AND THE PAIN OF DISEASES,
IN OUR IGNORANCE WE FEEL THAT “I AM DOING,THIS CREATES PRIDE IN US AND BRINGS ABOUT STRIFE AND DISHARMONY, WE DO NOT KNOW OR REALIZE THAT WE ARE ONLY GIVEN THE MANDATE TO BE ABLE TO DO OR ACT BY THE INFALLIBLE INTELLIGENCE,WHICH IS FAR VASTER AND MORE ENCOMPASSING THAN OUR PERSONALITY
IF WE REALLY KNOW IT THEN THE EGO SENSE TENDS TO DIMINISH,AND WE START TO SEE THE SAME INTELLIGENCE WORKING THROUGH ONE AND EVERY THING IN THE UNIVERSE,SO LONG AS WE ACT WITH SELFISH,MOTIVES WE ULTIMATELY CAUSE UNHAPPINESS TO OURSELVES,AND TO OTHERS.
IN THE EARLY STAGES KARMAYOGA IS MORE OF AN IDEAL THAN A REALITY, BUT WITH PRACTICE EGO -CENTERED TRAITS SUCH AS CONCEIT AND ARROGANCE WITHER AWAY,AND OUR SENSE OF BEING AN INSTRUMENT INCREASES, IT DEVELOPS THE ABILITY TO HARMONIZE MOTIVATE AND MOBILIZE ALL,OUR ABILITIES AND ACTIONS,TO ACHIEVE A DEFINITE AIM, IT ALSO HELPS IN DEVELOPING THE FACULTY OF CONCENTRATION,
THE POSSIBILITY TO WORK, ACT WITHOUT SELFISH MOTIVES, CAN ARISE ONLY WHEN WE REALIZE INEFFABLE PRESENCE WITHIN AND EVERYWHERE,AROUND US THEN WE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS POWER ALONE IS SUPREME AND CERTAINLY FAR GREATER THAN THE LIMITATIONS OF OUR PERSONALITY,
SELFLESS SERVICE PURIFIES THE HEART,WITHIN THIS EGOISM, HATRED. JEALOUSY. IDEAS OF SUPERIORITY AND OTHER NEGATIVE QUALITIES VANISH,
THE PRACTICE OF KARMA YOGA CAN PROTECT ONE FROM THE GREAT, FEAR OF REBIRTH, AND OF DEATH, WITH ITS CONCOMITANT EVILS,
THE PATH OF KARMA YOGA EVENTUALLY LEADS TO THE ATTAINMENT OF THE TRANSCENDENTAL KNOWLEDGE OF THE SELF AND THE SUPREME,

KARMA YOGA. THE EASIER DISCIPLINE, BY. BRAHMA SRIJAYADAYAL GOYANDKA,
SOME FRIENDS HAVE EXPRESSED THE FOLLOWING DOUBTS,IN REGARD TO THE PATH OF KARMA,BEING EASIER THAN THAT OF JNANA, IN THE GITA. THE LORD HAS HIGHLY PRAISED THE DISCIPLINE OF KARMA YOGA. AND DECLARED IT TO BE EASIER THAN THE DISCIPLINE OF JNANA YOGA, NAY HE HAS GONE TO THE LENGTH OF SAYING THAT IT IS DIFFICULT TO SUCCEED IN THE PRACTICE OF JNANA YOGA WITHOUT THE PRACTICE OF KARMAYOGA,
BUT HOW KARMA YOGA IS EASIER OF THE TWO DISCIPLINES IS IS NOT CLEAR, IN THE PRESENT AGE NOT MANY KARMA YOGIS ARE FOUND WHO CAN SATISFY THE TEST OF THE GITA, NOR IS THERE ACTUAL PRACTICE OF KARMA YOGA,
FOR KARMA YOGA CONSISTS IN THE RENUNCIATION OF BOTH THE FRUIT OF KARMA,AND ATTACHMENT FROM KARMA, BUT THERE IS NONE WE KNOW OF WHO CAN EXPLAIN AND ILLUSTRATE BY HIS OWN EXAMPLE,HOW KARMA MAY BE PERFORMED,:,WITHOUT OUT REFERENCE TO ITS FRUIT, AND WITH OUT ATTACHMENT TO IT, AND WHOSE CONTACT CONDUCT MAY BE ACCEPTED AS IDEAL, FOR GUIDING US ALONG THE PATH OF KARMA YOGA, THEREFORE WE WANT TO KNOW THE REAL SACT,
THE KARMA YOGA AS ENUNCIATED IN THE GITA,AND WHICH HAS BEEN DECLARED AS EASIER, DISCIPLINE IF IT IS A DISCIPLINE WHICH CAN BE REDUCED TO PRACTICE? THERE MUST BE PEOPLE WHO KNOW AND PRACTICE IT,
HOW CAN IT BE CALLED EASIER IF THERE ARE NONE WHO KNOW AND PRACTICE THE DISCIPLINE?
KARMA YOGA DOES NOT REQUIRE CONDITIONS. IT WAS QUITE REASONABLE TO DEFINE KARMA YOGA AS THE RENUNCIATION OF THE FRUIT OF KARMA. OR THE ABSENCE OF THE CRAVING FOR THE FRUIT OF KARMA,
THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE OF THE PRESENT WORLD APPEAR TO BE DRUGGED,WITH AN EXTRA DOSE OF WORLDLY NESS IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO COME ACROSS A SOUL WHO HAS REACHED THIS ENVIABLE STATE OF GOD-REALIZATION, EVEN IF WE MEET SUCH A SOUL WE CANNOT RECOGNIZE HIM, FOR WANT OF FAITH AND REVERENCE
THE FACT IS THAT FOR WANT OF FAITH AND REVERENCE WE FAIL TO MEET AND RECOGNISE THEM, ONLY THE TEACHING OF LORD IS IDEAL.

RANTI DEVA WAS SON OF KING. SAMKRTICHANDRA CLAN,HE WAS VERY KIND HEARTED, HE USED TO LIVE AN EXTREMELY. FRUGAL LIFE WITH WHATEVER HE WAS ABLE TO EARN. HIMSELF, HE GAVE ALL HIS TREASURES TO THE "POVERTY STRICKEN MASSES WHEN HE BECAME KING.
ONCE THERE WAS LONG FAMINE IN THE REGION,AND HE COULD NOT GET FOOD,,EVEN DRINKING WATER,FOR HIMSELF AND HIS FAMILY,MEMBERS FOR FOR A PERIOD OF FULL 48 DAYS, HE ALONG WITH ALL HIS FAMILY MEMBERS WAS ON THE VERGE OF DEATH, DUE TO HUNGER ON THE 49TH DAY HOWEVER HE HE GOT SOME EATABLES AND WATER FROM SOMEWHERE HE. WAS TREMBLING WITH SICKNESS
WHEN HE WAS GOING TO GET FOOD, A BRAHMIN GUEST JUST APPEARED AND BEGGED FOR FOOD, RANTI DEVA SHARED THE AVAILABLE FOOD,WITH HIM,
WHEN HE WAS ABOUT TO DISTRIBUTE THE AVAILABLE FOOD,

AND NARRATED HIS PLIGHT, THE KING GAVE HIM SOME FOOD
AT THAT VERY MOMENT ONE. SCAVENGER APPEARED WITH HIS HERD OF DOGS, AND BEGGED FOR FOOD,

NOW JUST A SMALL QUANTITY OF WATER REMAINED WITH HIM,
HE WAS ABOUT TO TAKE THAT WATER WITH HIS FAMILY MEMBERS AT THAT VERY TIME ANOTHER PERSON CAME CALLING FOR WATER, IT APPEARED AS IF HE WILL BREATHE HIS LAST IF HE DID NOT GET A DROP,OF WATER
RANTINDEVA WHO WAS HIMSELF STARVING FOR SO LONG
DID NOT HESITATE A MOMENT AND OFFERED THE WATER TO THE GUEST,
IN FACT THE GOD ALMIGHTY HAD APPEARED IN FORMS OF THE BRAHMIN AND OTHER GUESTS, TO TEST THE DEPTH,OF KINDNESS, IN RANTIDEVA'S HEART,
HE APPEARED AND REQUESTED RANTIDEVA TO ASK ANY BOON HE DESIRED, WHAT HE ASKED IS WRITTEN IN GOLDEN LETTERS IN INDIAN SCRIPTURES,

I ENGAGE MYSELF IN ACTION, FURTHER THE LORD SAYS,THAT. I. CEASELESSLY PERFORM ACTIONS WITH CARE. WITH NO SELFISH MOTIVE.
HE THUS SETS AN IDEAL BEFORE COMMON PEOPLE, INSPIRING PEOPLE TO ENGAGE IN ACTIONS, WITHOUT ANY SELF INTEREST,ONLY FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE,SO THAT THEY MAY GET SALVATION EASILY, AS ABOVE SAID. THAT GOD HAS NOTHING TO DO FOR HIMSELF YET HE INCARNATES FOR THE WELFARE OF OTHERS AND PERFORMS ACTIONS,FOR THE PROTECTION OF THE GOOD,FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF THE WICKED, AND FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
THE LORD CREATES THE UNIVERSE. ALSO FOR THE SALVATION OF BEINGS,
HE HAS CREATED HEAVENS SO THAT BEINGS MAY REAP THE FRUIT OF THEIR. VIRTUOUS ACTIONS, EIGHTY FOUR LACS, FORMS OF LIFES,AND HELLS HAVE BEEN CREATED SO THAT BEINGS MAY REAP THEIR EVIL ACTIONS.
WHILE HUMAN LIFE HAS BEEN CREATED SO THAT A HUMAN BEING HAVING TRANSCENDED VIRTUES AND VICES,MAY ATTAIN GOD. —REALIZATION
THIS IS POSSIBLE ONLY WHEN HE DOES NOTHING FOR HIMSELF ALL HIS ACTIVITIES—ACTIONS WITH THE GROSS BODY, THINKING WITH THE SUBTLE BODY AND SAMADHI(TRANCE). WiTH CAUSAL BODY SHOULD BE PERFORMED FOR THE WELFARE OF THE WORLD.OR TO GOD,
THEREFORE A KARMAYOGI CONSIDERS THE BODY, THE SENSES, MIND. INTELLECT ETC.OF THE WORLD OR. OF GOD, WHICH IN FACT BELONG TO EITHER, TO THE WORLD,OR TO GOD)
IF HE ENJOYS OR PERFORMS ACTIONS FOR HIS OWN PLEASURE HE COMMITS A BLUNDER, WHERE ACTIONS ARE FOR THEIR OWN PLEASURES TO SUCH PEOPLE. GOD SETS UP AN EXAMPLE OF HIS OWN THAT IF YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE SALVATION OR COME BACK TO ME YOU SHOULD FOLLOW MY EXAMPLE, OF PERFORMING ACTIONS WITHOUT ANY SELFISH MOTIVE AND WITHOUT ATTACHMENTS.
THE LORD ALWAYS PERFORMS HIS DUTY HE NEVER ABANDONS IT,SIMILARLY A STRIVER SHOULD ALWAYS PERFORM HIS DUTIES, ALL BEINGS SHOULD FOLLOW THE LORD,
THE LORD IS A MODAL NOT ONLY FOR THIS WORLD BUT ALL THE THREE WORLDS,BUT ONLY HUMAN BEINGS ARE ARE ENDOWED WITH DISCRIMINATION POWER AND FREE. CHOICE. ALL OTHER BEINGS IN OTHER WORLDS ARE NOT SO PRIVILEGED.

A. VERY. COMMON. PHRASE OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE IS USED. AS. SPORTSMANSHIP” THIS MEANS THAT ANY HAPPENING GOOD. OR BADS TAKEN LIKE A SPORTS PERSON, A PERSON TOTALLY DEVOTED TO HIS SPORTS OR PHYSICAL WORKS,IS NOT WORRIED ABOUT THE RESULTS,
THE PERSON TAKES BOTH WINS AND DEFEATS EQUALLY IN A BALANCED WAY, HE OR SHE KNOWS THAT HIS OR HER WORK IS TO DO PRACTICE. TO PERFECTION, NO DOUBT ONE BECOMES HAPPY WHEN WINS BUT DOES NOT BECOME VERY UNHAPPY WHEN LOSES A GAME OR SPORTS,
TAKES IN HIS /HER. STRIDE EVERY FAILED ATTEMPT TEACHES A LESSON,TO DO THE EXERCISE OR PRACTICE IN MORE INTENSE AND SINCERE WAY,
IN OTHER WORDS. YOU. YOU ARE TO DO YOUR DUTY YOUR WORK AND YOUR PRACTICE IN THE SAME WAY,
MORE AT THE END OF ALL THE EXERCISE COMES THE END RESULT.
AN AWARD IN MANY FORMS. OR ANY FORM THESE AWARDS REWARDS, OR ACHIEVEMENT ENCOURAGE FURTHER IMPROVEMENT.
BUT THE PURSUIT OF HIS/HER EXERCISES WITHOUT THINKING ABOUT THE AWARDS,REWARDS OR ACHIEVEMENTS, THIS IS EQUAL TO KARMA YOGA,
LORD KRISNA SAYS,TREATING ALIKE VICTORY AND GAIN AND LOSS, PLEASURE AND PAIN
THEN FIGHTING THUS YOU WILL NOT INCUR SIN
THIS LEADS TO BUILD AN INNER STRENGTH IN MAN OR WOMAN, AND DEVELOPS CONFIDENCE.
THE KARMA YOGI HAS TO DO MAINLY TWO TYPES OF KARMA ONE FOR HIMSELF AND SECOND FOR THE SOCIETY,OR THE COMMUNITY,
A KARMA YOGI MUST BE VERY STRONG AS FOR AS THE MORAL VALUE IS CONCERNED,
HUMAN LIFE IS FULL OF UPS AND DOWNS ONE HAS TO KEEP ON MOVING, FOR THE SURVIVAL EVERYBODY HAS TO DO SOME ACTIVITY. NOBODY CAN BECOME TOTALLY DEVOID OF ACTIVITY,THIS IS DEATH,
ACTIVITIES OF SURVIVAL OR THE KARMA FOR SURVIVAL WHEN IS COMBINED WITH YOGA,B IT BECOMES KARMA YOGA. AND THE PRACTITIONER BECOMES KARMA YOGI,

DIVINE BROTHERS AND MORE DIVINE SISTERS LIVING IN THEIR DWELLINGS TAKING BEST. CARE FROM PANDEMIC OF CORONA,
TODAY WE ENJOY HOW. TO BECOME. A. KARMA YOGI?
THE ULTIMATE. AIM. OF. YOGA. IS SUPREME AND UNINTERRUPTED BLISS,(. MOKSA). HOW DO WE ACHIEVE THIS?
IS. IT. THROUGH STUDY (JNANA YOGA) UNCONDITIONAL DEVOTION, YOGA PRACTICE(. RAJA YOGA) OR THROUGH ACTIONS.
KARMA YOGA, IF IT IS FOLLOWED WITH SELFLESS MOTIVE,THE GOAL CAN BE ACHIEVED,THE MOST RELEVANTIN OUR DAILY LIFE STYLE IS KARMA YOGA (. YOGA OF SELFLESS ACTIONS)
KARMA YOGA, OF THE FOUR PATHS OF YOGA KARMA YOGA IS THE PROCESS OF
PERFECTION,IN ACTIONS, DESTROY THE EGO,
IN ORDER TO HAVE SUCCESS IN YOGA. SPIRITUAL PRACTICE, IT IS NOT DONE,BY PRACTICING THEORETICAL RELIGION IN A CLOSED ROOM
WE WILL NOT ACHIEVE ANYTHING, THE EFFECTS OF. PAST ACTIONS WILL BE WASHED ONLY THROUGH VIRTUOUS ACTIONS IN THE PRESENT,THAT IS BY DOING SERVICE,
THE ACCUMULATED LAYERS OF EGO CAN NOT BE DESTROYED WITHOUT DOING SERVICE TO OTHERS.
POSSESSORS OF TAMAS. GUNAS,ALWAYS,WISH TO ENJOY THE PLEASURES
BUT THE PLEASURES OF THE THREE WORLDS CAN NOT BE EQUAL TO THE. BLISS OF DIVINE KNOWLEDGE,
KARMA YOGA MAY APPEAR TO BE DIFFICULT IN THE BEGINNING SINCE THE ENTIRE WORLD IS EGO RIDDEN,
DRAW INSPIRATION FROM THE STORIES OF SAINTS,AND SACRED TEXTS, JUST BEGIN TO WORSHIP,WITH RIGHT INTENTION,AND RIGHT SPIRIT, SPIRITUALIZE ALL YOUR ACTIONS, SERVE. POOR, SERVE YOUR PARENTS, AND SERVE YOUR COUNTRY,
THEN ALL YOUR ACTIONS WILL BECOME OFFERINGS UNTO THE LORD,
YOU SMILE WHEN YOU MEET YOUR FRIEND, YOU EXPECT HIM TO SMILE, BACK,IF YOU SALUTE A FRIEND YOU EXPECT HIM TO RECIPROCATE,
THIS IS AN INBORN TENDENCY, WE HAVE TRAIN THE MIND TO WORK,
DISCIPLINED, A KARMA YOGI IS FREE FROM THE IMPURITIES OF MIND,
HE/SHE PREPARES HIMSELF TO RECEIVE DIVINE LIGHT,DIVINE GRACE, AND DIVINE KNOWLEDGE, HE BREAKS ALL THE BARRICADES,AGAINST REALIZING THE ULTIMATE TRUTH.
HESHE IS EQUIPPED WITH DIVINE VIRTUES,
KARMA YOGA DESTROYS JEALOUSY,, HATRED AND SUPERIORITY COMPLETELY
A KARMA YOGI SERVES SILENTLY,WITHOUT ANY SELFISH MOTIVE, SERVICE TO HUMANITY IS. SERVICE TO GOD, WORK FOR THE COUNTRY OUT ANY SELFISH MOTIVE,
WORK WITH DETACHMENT, IT WILL LEAD TO ATTAIN PEACE AND IMMORTALITY.
YOGI FEELS THAT ALL HIS POWERS ARE OBTAINED FROM LORD,THEN THE EGO WILL VANISH,
SERVICE TO HUMANITY IS SERVICE TO GOD,

ARE DIRECTED TOWARDS THAT END,

TO SUBDUE HIS SENSES AS HE HAS EVER TO PERFORM ACTIONS, THEREFORE IF HIS SENSES ARE NOT CONTROLLED THERE IS EVERY POSSIBILITY THAT HE CAN DEVIATE. FROM THE RIGHT PATH, IF HIS SENSES ARE NOT UNDER CONTROLHE CANNOT RENDER SELFLESS SERVICE TO OTHERS FOR THEIR. BENEFIT.

WHEN THEY BECOME FREE FROM ATTACHMENT AND AVERSION, THEY CAN NOT DEFLECT THE MIND,OTHERWISE THEY RUN AFTER SENSE ENJOYMENTS,
THE SENSES ARE SO TURBULENT THAT FORCIBLY WAY THE MIND OF EVEN A WISE MAN,THE REASON IS THAT SO LONG AS MIND IS NOT PERMANENTLY ATTACHED AND ESTABLISHED IN GOD THE PAST INFLUENCES OF ENJOYMENT OF PLEASURES ATTRACT THE SENSES AND MIND TOWARDS TOWARDS SENSE PLEASURES FORCIBLY, EVEN SOME SAGES COULD NOT CONTROL THIS TEMPTATION,

DIVINE BROTHERS AND MORE DIVINE SISTERS LEADING A MEDITATIVE LIFE UNDER THE GRACE AND BLESSINGS OF SHRI, SHRI, SHRI SHIVABALA YOGI MAHARAJ. THE LIVING YOGI,
AND. HIS GURU LORD SHIVA. AND MATA PARVATIJI THEY WANTED TO GIVE SWAMIJI DIVINE GREAT NAME. BUT SWAMIJI PRAYED FOR ONLY SHIVA BALA. YOGI, THE YOGI CREATED BY LORD SHIVA. AND PARVATI KNOWN AS BALA TOO.
WE ARE REALLY VERY FORTUNATE TO MEDITATE DAILY AS PER DIRECTIONS OF SWAMIJI.
I. WANT TO SHARE. SO HEAR. ABOUT MY VISIT TO ADIVARAPUPETA ASHRAM OF SWAMIJI, AFTER SAMADHI,I COULD NOT GO THERE ON SAMADHI DAY DUE TO OFFICE WORKS,
AFTER END OF SAMADHI I WENT ALONE, I WAS ACTUALLY WORRIED ABOUT THE MARRIAGE OF OUR SECOND DAUGHTER. AROUND NOON. I REACHED ASHRAM AND WENT DIRECTLY TO
SAMADHI ROOM WHERE SWAMIJI STATUE WAS PUT, THE SAME PLACE WHERE HE USED TO GIVE DARSHAN AND BLESSINGS TO DEVOTEES.
I SAT FOR MEDITATION FOR A LONG TIME ONE AND HALF HOURS, SWAMIJI ASKED ME WHY I WAS WORRYING FOR MARRIAGE OF MY DAUGHTER. AND HE. SAID, SAI KAREGA. MEANING SATHYA SAI BABA WILL DO. I BECAME VERY HAPPY.
THE MARRIAGE OF OUR FIRST DAUGHTER WAS DONE BY SWAMIJI IN THE BANGALORE ASHRAM,
AND THE MARRIAGE OF SECOND DAUGHTER WAS DECIDED BY SAI, BABA, HE ASKED ME TO SEND TO HIM ALL CASES AND HE ONLY WILL FINALIZE, HE WAS SENDING AWAY ALMOST ALL, TILL ONLY TWO CASES WERE LEFT OVER, HE TOLD NO MORE TRYING ONE OF THESE TWO, AND WHEN WE WERE NOT ABLE TO DECIDE ONE OF THE TWO,, WE GOT A LETTER FROM ONE PARTY, THUS THE OTHER WAS DECIDED AUTOMATICALLY.
SATYA SAI BABA TOO BLESSED OUR FAMILY MEMBERS ANY TIME WE VISITED HIS ASHRAM PUTTANESCA PARTHI.
TODAY WE WILL KNOW ABOUT AN IDEAL KARMAYOGI—-JATAYU.
SITA WAS BEING CARRIED AWAY BY RAVANA IN A HELPLESS STATE SITA APPEALS TO ALL THE ANIMATE AND INANIMATE OBJECTS AROUND HER TO CONVEY THE NEWS OF HER ABDUCTION TO RAMA WHEN HE RETURNS.
HER CRY IS PAID ATTENTION TO ONLY BY PIOUS AND KIND HEARTED. JATAYU, HE RUSHES TO THE SPOT AND STOPS,RAVANA AT LEAST FOR A SHORT PERIOD,HE FIGHTS WITH ALL HIS MIGHT, DESTROYS HIS CHARIOT, KILLS HIS CHARIOTEER AND FINALLY IN THE PROCESS SACRIFICE HIS OWN LIFE,
HOW KIND HEARTED SELFLESS JATAYU IS KNOWING FULLY WELL THAT HE CAN NOT BE
A MATCH FOR THE MIGHTY RAKSASA, HE CHALLENGES HIM TO A DUEL AND FIGHTS TILL END, HE TRIES HIS BEST TO SAVE. SITA,FROM THE DISASTER BUT EVEN HIS LIFE FAILS TO SAVE HER FROM HER MISHAP, HE SACRIFICES HIS LIFE FOR PROTECTION OF SITA,
THE IDEAL OF UNSELFISH SERVICE IS SEEN PRACTISED BY JATAYU,HE HAD STRONG WILL POWER HE HOLDS HIS BREATH TILL RAMA COMES TO THE SITE,AND ENQUIRES ABOUT SITA,AND THUS CONVEY HIM REGARDING ABDUCTION OF SITA BY RAVANA, IMMEDIATELY AFTER RAMA SEES JATAYU, LYING FLAT ON THE GROUND WITH BLOOD STAINED LIMBS HE COMES TO A HASTY CONCLUSION THAT THE BIRD MUST HAVE DEVOURED SITA BUT WHEN JATAUN TELLS RAMA EVERY THING RAMA BREAKS DOWN AND EMBRACES HIM
RAMA FEELS MEASURABLE AT HIS FATE WHICH HAS DEPRIVED HIM OF SITA,
THIS IS AN IDEAL EXAMPLE OF SELFLESS SERVICE WHICH IS THE ESSENCE OF KARMA YOGI.
BLESSINGS.
