Karma Yoga: The Path of Selfless Action

  • Concept: Each action is a seed; some bring obstacles, others bring joy and spiritual support.

  • Action and Inaction: Both are forms of action with their own consequences.

  • Harmony with Higher Self: "Yoga Karmasu Kosalam" (Bhagavad Gita 2:50) - Align actions with your Highest Self for spiritual growth.

Seva: The Expression of Belief Through Selfless Service

  • Belief in Action: Seva embodies our highest values in our actions

  • Diverse Forms: This is not just the soup kitchen and Mother Theresa kind of Seva. The Seva od Motherhood, teaching and sharing wellbeing, and so forth are also Seva opportunities and able to create profound spiritual transformation when undertaken with the correct attitude.

  • Divine Service: "Every selfless act is born from the Brahman" (Bhagavad Gita 3:15-19) - Selfless service connects us to the Divine.

Humility: Foundation of Sincere Yoga Practice

  • Key Attitude: Recognize every single individual has limitations, not just others that we so easily judge. Know that you are enough without being everything perfectly, and stay stay grounded in surrender to the vastness of this Universe.

  • Example: Hanuman - Power balanced with humility, service as the highest form of Yoga.

  • Prana Connection: Harness inner strength without ego, grow deeply, authentically as dedicated practitioners and teachers.

With Love and Humble Pranams, Kal Prakashini
