Karma Yoga



Karma = action
Yoga = union
Literally, Kama Yoga means union through action.

Karma Yoga includes both action and the fruit of the action.

What ever action perform with our body, mind, speech, intellect (theham, manam ,vakku, buthi) either intentionally or unintentionally is dedicated to the Supreme Lord. In Bhagavat Gita, Krishna says to Arjuna

"... O Arjuna, surrendering all your works unto Me, with full knowledge of Me, without desires for profit, with no claims to proprietorship, and free from lethargy, fight."

4 ways to be a Karma Yogi :-

1. Reduce Adharmik activities
2. Increase Dharmik activities
3. Dedicate all our actions to the Supreme Lord
4. Experience everything and every happenings as prasada
