In the path of sannyas, your intelligence wins over your prarabdha and brings it to control and exhaust it !

Samsar literally means the ‘world’ or the ‘path’. It refers to the worldly life that causes endless cycles of birth and death. There are two ways to move in any path: either with baggage and people or by yourself. In the first case, you may have to wait for a longer time. In the second…

Why should we do puja ?

Puja is a ritualistic offering. Puja is nothing but an everyday remembering of all the clicks that have happened in you till date, so that the necessary click will automatically come up whenever you have a problem. When a master teaches, it is not even a teaching, it is a powerful experience. When you do…

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…

Do we have to wait for the next birth if we feel strongly about something but it is not our prarabdha?
No. You can change your prarabdha through a simple, strong will or sankalpa. The strength of the sankalpa can cause a rebirth in you in this birth itself. The next birth can happen now itself. For example, people, especially householder disciples who feel they are caught up in their responsibilities ask me, ‘Swamiji, please bless…

Will a human be born as an animal, bird or insect or can he be born as human being in the next birth?

For all of us, our total sanchita karma initially was a divine play. For an enlightened master, it is still a divine play as he has no karma at all. Playing because you can play is the divine play. We took birth out of choice. We forgot our prarabdha karma, started gathering agamya karma and…

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. The choice of the next body arises from the mindset based on these three experiences. These three thoughts will be based…

Breathing awareness into the desire has the capacity to burn your unfulfilled desires and can dissolve this birth’s karma!

Another important thing, please understand this concept. Assume that in your total sanchita karma baggage, 100 desires are related to your muladhara chakra, the energy center related to greed and lust; 100 desires are say related to swadhishthana chakra, the energy center related to fear, 100 desires are related to your manipuraka chakra, the energy…

Reaching out to an Enlightened master, doing what the master says and acting without intention is life!

If the depth of the intention is more and the action is less, the person is lazy. He is lazy or in tamas. If the depth of intention and of the action is the same, the person is in restless action or rajas. If there is no intention but only the action, he is in…

Because an Incarnation has no karma, when you flow with Him you will also act without intention and action without intention is living enlightenment!

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. One of them climbed the wall and peeped inside. He cried out, ‘Oh, such a beautiful garden!’ He jumped into the garden and started…

Are you reacting from your past experiences or are you responding like a pure reflection in a mirror with no judgment ?
Karma means action. But action can be of two types. It can either be a reaction or it can be a response. When somebody insults you and you become angry, he has made you behave the way he wanted. Now if he apologizes, your mood suddenly changes. So he is the master. You are behaving…

How can we clear our Karmas ?

Let me explain the three types of karma from a different angle. You see, if you take all the possibilities that you are aware of and that are available to you in the cosmos, we call that as agamya. There are all kinds of possibilities. You can become a fish, you can become a snake,…

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…
