Guest guest Report post Posted November 11, 2006 This is a discussion list on Spiritual & Material Growth, Sadhanas, Occult, Yoga, Ayurveda, Meditation, Astrology,Tantra etc.Dear Shweta, AUM ! Karma is the behavior which plays a great role in our life, which is emphatically declared by Brihadaranyak Upanishad. And it is elaborated by one of great seers - Gautam Buddha. If someone is suffering or delighting, all those things are nothing but the effect of Karma. Positive and Good Karma gives the happiness or heavenly joy on the other hand Negative thrust in the dire sufferings. Negative behaviors or our Mind system cause the adversities, so we despise the adversities, for none wants calamities and one is happy when good situations is arisen as the effect of your own virtuous actions, one is delighted therein. But the sages, Gurudeva also, exhorts to go beyond that happiness also so that lest one becomes attached to that happiness which is also a bondage. We should remember here one thing Sins/inscientific karmas/bad circumstances/sufferings are the iron-chain which cause the pains but at the same time the happiness/bliss is also the golden chain. Let's think the behavior of Karma. Karma is nothing but the physical manifestation of your desire. The desire is the root of Karma. If we consider the karma as the tree which bears the fruits, be them bitter or sweet, and want to eliminate that tree which is the cause of birth-death, we should not cut the tree rather we must eliminate that tree from it's deep roots. Amongst the roots also there is one root which is cause of tree's life. That main root of the tree of karma is Desire. Unless and untill one's heart and mind is not completely freed from the desire(s) (not only mundane rather ultra mundane also) is not merged into Nirvana. That is why Buddha was migrating from one birth to another till the final Nirvana when His all questions were answered and his heart and mind were void from all the questions/desires.. Sooner or later every one has to finally enter into that Nirvana only since complete extinction of all the roots (Desire) of Karma-tree. So, when one transcends from negative to positive, which is the threshold of Nirvana but not the Nirvana, and thereafter, that positive state (happiness state) is also transcended only then one is entered into the Nirvana / Brahman, which is the state of Eternality/Emptiness/Unbornness/Imagelessness/Void like the Sky which keeps the records like a container, Who is also called Rei in japanese. Reiki practioners use the Energy / Power of that Omnipresent, Omniscient and Omnipotent only. Since Karma is the cause of bondage/sufferings of birth-death, let's purify our karma which leads to the Freedom from all types of duality of Harsha-Shoka, Papa-Punya, Bandhan-Moksha, Name-Form. Who is beyond duality and is Oneness. This itself is Brahman-Jnana. When one is attained the great Brahman-Jnana and is etablished in that consciousness beyond any discrimination never thinks about the Bondage, as such we are nitya shuddha-buddha-mukta if we realize the reality of our own self.
