Most people understand karma as a balance sheet of good and bad deeds virtues and sins. The mechanism that decrees that we cannot evade the consequences of our own actions. In reality karma has nothing to do with reward and punishment. Karma simply means action: your action your responsibility.

Accumulation of karma is determined only by your intention and the way you respond to what is happening to you. Over time its possible to become ensnared by your own unconscious patterns of behavior.In Karma Sadhguru seeks to put you back in the drivers seat turning you from a terror-struck passenger to a confident driver navigating the course of your own destiny. By living consciously and fully inhabiting each moment you can free yourself from the cycle. Karma is an exploration and a manual restoring our understanding of karma to its original potential for freedom and empowerment instead of a source of entanglement. Through Sadhgurus teachings you will learn how to live intelligently and joyfully in a challenging world.
