Karma Yogam :
=======================================================================



"The first step to preparing the mind, the first step on the path of spirituality is karma yoga. The beauty in is that even if one does not reach the ultimate goal, walking on the path itself will give great joy and great peace.

What is karma yogam? As a human being, we have obligations towards ourselves, the family, society, nature, ancestors, the environment, and, of course, God. We have responsibilities towards all of these and fulfilling them is very important. Another vital aspect about karma yoga is that one should discharge these responsibilities as worship of Ishvara. When I start doing my duties for the Lord, I start enjoying them. No doubt, the subsequent result will come, but Sri Krishna tells us to try and relish the work itself. The result, when it comes, should be accepted gracefully. When the attitude - the principal factor is of worship, working itself will give immense happiness and contentment.

The Bhagavad-gita reveals the nature of Ishvara. Sri Krishna emphatically states: “I reside in the hearts of every being. I pervade the whole world."
