Karma

Bhagavad Gita • Chapter 2

Yoga is skill in action—not clever manipulation for profit, but the artistry of acting so wisely that you transcend both good and bad karma, becoming free in this very life.

Bhagavad Gita • Chapter 2

Action bound to fruit is spiritual poverty—take refuge in the wisdom that liberates action from the bondage of outcomes, and discover the immense freedom of doing without grasping.

Bhagavad Gita • Chapter 18

Actions bear three kinds of fruit after death: painful, pleasant, and mixed—but only for those who have not renounced. For true renouncers, there is no binding fruit whatsoever.

Mundaka Upanishad 3.1.1-2

Two birds sit on the same tree (body). One bird (individual self) eats sweet and bitter fruits (karma). The other bird (witness consciousness) simply watches. Liberation comes when the lower bird realizes its true identity as the watching self, free from pleasure and pain.

Sant Parampara

A Mewari devotee whose devotion was so pure that Krishna personally accepted food from her hands daily. She is called the Mira of Marwar for her intense bhakti.

Arjuna & Krishna

Karma binds us not through action but through attachment to results. When we act from duty without craving outcomes, we remain free. The wise person acts like fire — burning what must be burned without hatred or attachment.

Krishna & Jara

Karma from past lives continues until completed. Sometimes we are instruments of endings we don't understand. Death can be a gift of completion rather than a tragedy. The circles we don't remember creating still seek to close.
