Who is a Karma Yogi myths of karma yoga
(JRD TATA - karma yogi par excellence)


Do we ever realize most Westerners are Karma Yogi’s par excellence. Most may not be aware of the subject meaning of the word (or the word "Karma Yogi" itself) ... Yet they practice and follow Karma Yoga since times immemorial, not willingly but inherently.

They were not even aware of the purport of it! To be or not to be is not the question but inherently following a form of Yoga best suited to needs of today, what more could a person of the present Materialistic World ask for!!

Karma Yoga stands for doing your duties towards your own self, family, society and masses without a feeling of doubt, obligation or lust but as a duty one has to perform in the service of God. Karma denotes one’s capability to think (invoke positive or negative thoughts) followed by action (thoughts in crystallized form). None can perform even a single act without a thought preceding it! Can you?

The correct approach towards the path of Karma Yoga is living in the present (now or never). The fleeting seconds passing by are the true actual moments within your grasp. You have absolutely zero control over the past events. You can exercise 100% control over the future by controlling your present!!.


Yoga denotes trying to communicate with the almighty through various means. Means or paths are only three ... Jnana Yoga, Bhakti Yoga or Karma Yoga. When you try to follow the Karma path ... you are called a Karma Yogi for, in fulfilling the requirements of self, family and society you are doing an act of his (God). Satisfaction obtained by such deeds is thus, a prayer completed!!

Those who make prayers as their only solace of Life like Priests, Swamis, Sadhus and Munis etc. ... are called Bhakti Yogis. Those who embrace Jnana as their chief aim of Life ... through introspection and Self Realization reach their destined goal of Life are followers of the Jnana Yoga path.

The path of Karma Yoga is simpler and easy to follow for you neither have to leave your family and more so enjoy all comforts of Life but via this path you can never reach the goal in one Life span (Who knows what we shall be in our next Life! It is always desirable to divert ourselves from the path of Karma Yoga to Bhakti Yoga or Jnana Yoga in the present life).

Karma Yogi: Definition quote meaning Karma Sutra is best followed purusing the path of Nishkama karma yoga!

At every stage of Life you also invariably follow the path of Bhakti Yoga while making your prayers (though inherently). Bhakti Yoga alone is capable of taking you towards God but in Jnana Yoga you have the added advantage of solving all your queries before you realize God. A Jnana Yogi is competent enough to guide the whole Humanity towards the Ultimate goal of Life ... The culmination of all your prayers ... God Realization!!!

Immortality meaning and concept
Immortality ... a word framed by Lord and not coined by a Human Being has altogether a different meaning than we self centered understand! Who becomes immortal? One who after intense Meditation is able to live longer compared to a normal Human Being or one, who does not have to manifest a body again and again and rests in peace in Baikuntha (Abode of God totally different from Heaven).

God the Creator and Man Gods
Creator: "Brahman, the Creator" is one. Gods can be many. Brahman created the Universe and in it all Atmans (Souls). These Atmans manifest themselves in different forms to purify themselves. Once purified ... they attain Moksha (liberation). The purified Atmans have been accorded a status by the Society ... we call them God. Man Gods... are those Human Beings, those jivas who in their Life time have liberated themselves from the cycle of birth and death and have become immortal (amar). They are known as amar for they shall not manifest again.

Human Evolution and becoming Immortal
All these enlightened souls like Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ and Prophet Mohammed had transcended life itself. They had become immortal in the true sense that they would not have to indulge again in manifesting life thereafter. Life had truly come full circle for these godly souls.

Letter to all mankind and Immortality
Understand the noble goal of "Atman" within you ... cause for all misery and fear vanishes. None can cause harm to any "Atman" being immortal. The "Atman" can not itself liberate to rejoin the "Lord" until it has cleansed itself (Karma is exhausted) through various manifested physical forms.

Humans Beings and becoming immortal
It is absolutely clear that no human being can directly either go to heaven or the kingdom of God. The domain of heaven and hell and also the kingdom of God is open for soul atmans only. In the physical manifest form of life as a human being or any other form... any wishful thinking of becoming an immortal does not exist in the cosmic system.
