Karma yoga
The message of
Karma Yoga is this: once we work in harmony with the Power that runs the
universe, we are not egotistically motivated, and we no longer maintain
compulsive desires relative to the future. With the eradication of compulsive
want, we're in a position to reside within the present, while planning for the
long run, with out being sure to the future. Each cheap want carries inside
itself the driving force for its fulfillment. That is, if an expertise is
possible to have in this natural world, and we need it, we are subconsciously
pushed toward it or appeal to it to ourselves.
Yogic philosophy
doesn't ask us to give up intelligent planning. It says to surrender egotistic
desire. We're then able to be open to inner steering and to move within the
stream of grace. The Intelligence-Energy that sustains the universe has a plan
and a purpose. Once we are in concord with It we're free, even while involved.
As we work with a
cheerful attitude, doing what we're greatest suited to do, we know a harmony and
an inside peace which those that try and struggle can by no means know.
