Karma yoga is one of the four classical schools of yoga alongside Jnana (knowledge or self-study), Bhakti (devotion) and Raja (meditation), each offering a path to moksha (spiritual liberation) and self-realization.
Derived from the Sanskrit term for "action", karma is understood by both Hindu and Buddhist traditions to be the sum of a person’s deeds in past, present and future states of existence. In yoga, karma is known as the path of action, or selfless service towards others.
Karma yoga is considered to be one of the most practical and effective means of spiritual development.
Mudra means “gesture or attitude”
A mudra may involve the whole body in a combination of asana, pranayama, bandha and visualization technique.
Define as “ Mudam anandam dadati iti mudra” means the actions that gives us pleasure, bliss is called mudra.
Mudra denotes the sense of evoking a hidden power or uniting with something large.
In hatha yoga, mudras are used in conjunction with pranayama (yogic breathing exercises), generally while in a seated posture, to stimulate different parts of the body involved with breathing and to affect the flow of prana, bindu, boddhicitta, amrita or consciousness in the body.
Vipassana is a way of self-transformation through self-observation. It is a logical process of mental purification. It focuses on the deep interconnection between mind and body. Vipassana is an ancient Indian meditation technique.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

INTRODUCTION
• Karma yoga is the yoga of action. It is based on the teaching of
Bhagvat geeta.
• Non attachment to result is the key to karma yoga .It doesn’t mean not
setting up goals for attaining result ,it simply means that after all
efforts have been put in for a certain result one has to accept the result
that actually happens with complete equanimity of mind.
• Karma yoga is a school of yoga which teaches us how to turn our
action and deeds into spiritual evolution leading to enlightment.It is a
path of union with god consciousness through the medium of action &
deed .
• According to samkhya philosophy nature is composed of 3 forces
called in sanskrit sattva ,rajas ,tamas .These are manifested in the
physical world as eqilibrium activity and inertness .karma yoga has
specially to deal with these three factors
3. Dr.Anupma kumari(BNYS)
anupmavaidya123@gmail.com
KARMA
• The word karma comes from the sanskrit root “kri” which denotes a
deed ,doing or action.karma includes all actions of body and mind.
• Karma includes thoughts spoken words and physical action .karma can
be manasaa,vaacha or karmanaa i.e, by mind ,word and by doing
,which are mental ,verbal and physical action respectively.
• Karma in it effect is the most tremendous power that man has to deal
with.Man is,as it were a centre and is attracting all the power of
universe towards himself ,and in this centre is fusing them all and
sending them off in a big current .such a centre is the real man –the
almighty ,the omniscient and he draws the whole universe towards
him.
4. Dr.Anupma kumari(BNYS)
anupmavaidya123@gmail.com
CONCEPT OF KARMA YOGA
• Karma yoga is described as a way of acting ,thinking and willing by
which one orients oneself towards realization by acting in
accordance with one’s duty or dharma without consideration of
personal self centred desires, likes or dislikes .one acts without
being attached to the fruit of one’s deed
• Bhagvat Geeta also talks about meta karma yoga i.e not getting
irritated ,annoyed or unhappy when one gets attached to the result
even after trying to practice karma yoga.
• Lord Krishna explains that work done without selfish action purifies
one’s mind and gradually makes an individual fit to see the value of
reason .he states that it is not necessary to remain in external
solitude ,or remain action-less in order to practice spiritual life
,since the state of action or inaction is primarily determined in the
mind.
5. Dr.Anupma kumari(BNYS)
anupmavaidya123@gmail.com
TYPES OF ACTION
• Action or deeds can be classified into four types :-
1. Prati-karma or reaction
2. Karma or action
3. Vikarma or proaction
4. Akarma or inaction
therefore a person in supreme conciousness can do just anything
,which may be baffling to the spirituality unawakened ones.
The Goal of karma yoga is to lead one from reaction (pratikara) to
no action (akarma ).when the doer ceases to exist (in the state of
akarma ) an action (karma) becomes karma yogajourney from
reaction to no action is a great tool for enlightment.
7. Dr.Anupma kumari(BNYS)
anupmavaidya123@gmail.com
REWARD OR CONSEQUENCES
Phala or reward can be manifested in 3 ways:-
1. Kriyaman - a course of action happening to the present
2. Prarabdha- a reward good or bad that has become your destiny.
3. Sanchita – a reward that you has accumulated and will manifest sooner or
later.
Karma yoga says –set a goal (udesya),work for that (karmanya) but do not
insist that a result will necessarily of your choice .The phala could be as
expected by you or could be something totally unexpected by you.
Lord krishna says to his disciple arjuna:-
कर्मणयेवाधिकारस्ते र्ा फलेषु कदाचन।
र्ा कर्मफलहेतुर्भमर्ाम ते सङ्गोऽस््वकर्मणण।
i.e. You have a right to perform your prescribed duty, but you are not entitled
to the fruits of actions, Never consider yourself the cause of the results of
your activities, and never be attached to not doing your duty.
Thus non attachment to result is a key to karma yoga.

YAGNA (PAYING BACK)
• We have already taken a lot from the environment , parent ,society
etc. So we are under a huge debit.give willingly instead of being
robbed forcefully.
FIVE KINDS OF DEBITS:-
1.DEVA RUNA:-debit to inanimate object (nature).we are made of the
gross and subtle elements .earth gives food,sun gives heat & light
,we need air to breath ,water to drink etc.
2. BHUTA RUNA:- debit to other plants & animals.
3. PITRU RUNA:-debit to parents and ancestor .
4. MANUSHYA RUNA:-debit to the society .
5. RISHI RUNA :- debit to the teachers .
So paying back against the pancha runa brings our account back to
balance. It is okay to overpay. It will be credited back.
10. Dr.Anupma kumari(BNYS)
anupmavaidya123@gmail.com
Daana (charity)
Contribute ore than you consume. In Bhagvat Geeta -17:20 it is given
that:-
Give as duty and with humility, not as a favour and with arrogance.
Give to people who cant give back in any form to you.
Give at a place where needed
Give in tie when needed
Give to the deserving people .
TAPAS
Stretching ourselves exposes our limitations to our conscious view so
that we can analyze them and try to improve ourselves.
11. Dr.Anupma kumari(BNYS)
anupmavaidya123@gmail.com
PHYSICAL AUSTERITY
Bow down to God , cultured people ,teachers and wise people
Maintain everything neat and tidy
There should be perfect alignment between your attention

VERBAL AUSTERITY
Speak softly.

Maintain a habit of studying good books.

12. Dr.Anupma kumari(BNYS)
anupmavaidya123@gmail.com

brooding about the past.
Be calm and cheerful

14. न कर्मणार्नारम्र्ान्नैष्कम्यं पुरुषोऽश्नुते ।
न च संन्यसनादेव ससदधिं सर्धिगच्छतत ॥ (3.04 Bhagvat Geeta)
i.e. A person can never achieve freedom from reaction to
activities without performing prescribed Vedic duties
,neither can perfection be attained by renouncing them as
well.
न हह कश्श्च्षणर्पप जातु ततष्ठ्यकर्मकृ त् ।
कायमते ह्यवशः कर्म सवमः प्रकृ ततजैगुमणैः ॥(3.05 Bhagvat Geeta)
i.e. Indeed, no one ever remains even for a second without
performing action because everyone is forced to perform
action by the three gunas (sattva, rajas and tamas) born of
prakruti
