Karma literally means action Action in its impression in the mind which
is latent will give rise to similar situations So karma has three dimensions
One is the impression of action which you have in your mind, in your consciousness
And then the action that you are doing in the present
And the possible activity, possible action that may befall you
Or which you would attract Because you have similar impressions within
you This is also called karma
We have this huge confusion in our mind about life being all karma or there is a freewill
also in it I tell you, life is a combination of freewill
and destiny.
It is karma and karma swathantra Both are there with you
Like your height is determined, is your destiny But your weight is your freewill
Like that, though you have not inherited the huge wealth of the past
but nothing can stop you from dreaming about it
and create it in the future You have certain X amount of money with you
to start a business Suppose you don t think about multiplying
your capital and you just sit with it, what will happen?
Whatever you have earned that capital will drain, finish
over a period of time Like that, your karma is your capital
But your present action, the karma that you do now
can make it grow, yes and if there is a debt, the present karma
can nullify it So if it is a negative karma, it can be nullified
And if it is a positive karma You don t want to get rid of your positive
karma, do you?
Nobody wants to get rid of the impact of positive karma
Your merits That will grow
You can make it grow Unfathomable are the ocean of karma
Because this entire creation is filled with action
There is action everywhere So there is reactions everywhere
And so just don t go and scratch your head on this
See the past as destiny Future as your freewill
And live happily in the present Karma s can never be finished
Karmas continue It is like asking when will the oceans have
no waves Ocean will have waves
But you can rise above the wave You can surf
You can rise above the wave That is my being a witness to it
Not being reactive, but to be a witness to your own actions
Your own tendencies Your future is in your hands, Ofcourse
you can mould it You can change it You can turn it
See, karma is not a fatalistic theory Karma tells you about what you have
And what are your possibilities It keeps open the possibilities in front of
you That is what it is
The day we say I want nothing I am happy, now and here
That shift has already happened The liberation, freedom has already come to
you Desires are our bondage
Contentment is our liberation
