  • Hesitation is worst of all crimes.
  • Whatever is there , pain or bliss, accept is fully.
  • Karma is not action, good or bad. it is mind , action and energy
  • Mind & enery involved big karma,as action is once but mind can repeat that many times.
  • The only objective for human life is to get out of this karmic cycle.
  • We are not just having our karma only, we inherit others and there is collective karma as well.
  • karma is not good or bad it just action has consequence.
  • if action created bondage it is karma. if action created freedom, it is karma yoga. if you perform action miserably, it is karma, if you perform action joyfully and effortlessly , it is karm yoga
  • Mental alertness is not the awareness.
  • Consiousness without content is called chitta.
  • it is the expectaion of the fruit of the action that causes suffering
  • Even if we touch someone, we make connection. our senses store some informatio. this is why india has a culture of namaskara so that we are not cluttered with this.
  • Only practice /sadhan helps break the cyclic movemant of life.
  • Only 2 things that you are suffering right now : your memory and your imagination
  • Live in present, fully with no discrimiation. live effortlessly without suffering
  • Pain is physical but suffering is entirely psychological.
  • you can not own live , you can only live it.
  • while you are living you are consciously into death.
  • Do not think karma in terms of lifetime, think of it in terms of just the living moment.

Whay my take away from this book is,

live fully in each moment. this is your life. one life under that one can free and get out of this karmic cycle or be in there of next. what ever we do or we don’t this should be our consciousness, this should not be driven by the information that is inherited from DNA/ society or memory. Though this can make to do the living complicated, but that can also free.
