Karma Yoga


Karma yoga

From Wikipedia




The word karma is derived from the Sanskrit kri, meaning 'to do'. 
In its most basic sense karma simply means 


action, and yoga translates to union. 



Thus karma yoga literally translates to the path of union through action.

 However, in Vedantic philosophy the word karma means both action and the effects of such action. 

Karma yoga is described as a way of acting, thinking and willing by which one orients oneself.






Lots to think about this week.


Lack of true knowledge is the source of all pains and sorrows.   Yoga Sutras

I
f what you have been doing in the past isn't working for you then adopting a new path, 
a different way of thinking will help you get out of those predicaments. 
Openness to new knowledge & information helps lead to a solution.
In whatever situation in life this relates to, try putting it to the test.  
Whether it be your golf swing or your relationships with your children or loved ones, 
being open to learning and growing is essential.   Apply through action with 
awareness.
