Will we contract another person’s karma when they give advice, or touch them? How vulnerable are we to other people’s karma?
Understand, you cannot get karma from somebody else. You have enough of your own! So do not bother about catching karma from another person. Either by touching or by giving advice or by close physical contact or physical proximity, karma can never be passed on. You may acquire the mental setup of that person in…

Only acts of service coming from Pure consciousness can be truly effective.
Swamiji, You teach us meditation. What is the point of meditation when the rest of the world is suffering? Instead of meditating, we can do some service. A small story: There was once a king who was known to be compassionate. He used to go around his kingdom unannounced to see how his subjects were.…

Why do hindus perform rituals ?
Rituals are very powerful tools. They are powerful techniques. Many people ask me, ‘You are enlightened. Why should you then perform rituals?’ I tell them, ‘Because I am enlightened, I am teaching people exactly why and how to perform rituals!’ Enlightened beings do not need any rituals for themselves. A small story: A man went…

You have started to move towards enlightenment when you doubt the promises your mind has been making all along but never fulfilling any.
You are like a wave in the ocean of Existence. The wave rises up from the ocean but it is still connected to the ocean. It may think it has an individual existence but that is just a myth. Whether it is rising, above the ocean or falling down, it is still a part of…

It is you who chooses what type of body and which parents to take birth to based on your vasanas!
Once the life force leaves the body, within three kshanas, it chooses the next body. At the time of death the three most enjoyed experiences in that lifetime stand out as one’s last thoughts.

Nobody can make you suffer without your silent permission
The theory of karma simply says that whatsoever is happening to you is your doing. Nothing happens to you from outside of you. You create whatever happens to you. Most of the time you are not aware and you are not conscious. So you are not able to see yourself doing it. If you are…

Be clear, honest to your center, to your understanding. It is perverted understanding that good people suffer and bad people enjoy!
An important thing you should know: accept honor only from the person who has experienced you. He can never dishonor you. Even if he dishonors only he will suffer. You will not suffer. Live on the path of dharma, righteous conduct, having a clear understanding about you and allowing only the people who experience you…

A beautiful story: There was a beautiful garden with many trees and varieties of flowers and fruits. Three friends were walking near this garden that had a big wall around it.

If you create thoughts, words or actions that do not emanate from deep awareness but from a superficial layer, then you create karma!

Aagamya, Prarabdha, Sanchita karma
There are three types of karma – agamya, prarabdha and sanchita. Sanchita karma is like a bank, a reserve bank. Understand, this may not be the first time you have taken a body and come to planet earth. You may have taken millions of bodies before! In those millions of bodies, whatever thoughts you had, whatever…
