Karma: A Yogis Guide to Crafting Your Destiny Paperback – Notebook, 1 January 2021

Sadhguru's "Karma: A Yogi's Guide to Crafting Your Destiny" is far more than just a book; it's a profound invitation to reclaim agency over one's life. In this remarkable work, Sadhguru masterfully dismantles the common misconceptions surrounding karma, transforming it from a daunting concept of fate or divine judgment into an empowering framework for conscious living.At its heart, the book redefines karma not as a ledger of good and bad deeds, but as the very mechanism of life itself – the accumulated memory of action. Sadhguru elucidates how every thought, emotion, word, and physical act creates a ripple effect, shaping our experiences and tendencies. What truly sets this book apart is his unique perspective: he shifts the focus from what happens to us to how we respond, emphasizing that our reactions are the true architects of our destiny. He brilliantly illustrates how we can consciously choose our actions and responses, thereby becoming the creators of our own experience rather than passive recipients of an unseen force.Sadhguru's genius lies in his ability to demystify complex spiritual philosophies, making them accessible and profoundly practical for the modern reader. His language is direct, engaging, and infused with a refreshing clarity that cuts through centuries of misinterpretation. He doesn't just explain karma; he provides a roadmap for understanding and utilizing its principles to break free from limiting patterns. His insights are not theoretical musings but actionable wisdom, encouraging readers to cultivate awareness, responsibility, and a deeper understanding of their inner workings.Reading "Karma" is an illuminating journey that empowers you to move beyond the narrative of victimhood and embrace the role of a conscious creator. It's a powerful reminder that while we may not control every event, we absolutely control our response to them, and in that response lies the ultimate freedom. Sadhguru's profound wisdom, delivered with characteristic wit and incisiveness, makes this book an essential guide for anyone seeking to understand the mechanics of life and truly craft their own destiny. It's a testament to his unparalleled ability to bring ancient wisdom into contemporary relevance, offering tools for genuine transformation.

The book teaches what karma really means, that it is so much more than what the world says it is. Karma is the software with which one operates. It includes one’s likes, dislikes, one’s sanskars, habitual tendencies, thoughts, beliefs etc. all of which make up a “personal software” for the individual. This is what determines how he experiences the world and how he operates. The alternative of living a life victimised by one’s karma is living in continues awareness of one’s true self which is beyond this “software.” In order words, the alternative of living beyond karma is to become conscious.Very clearcut methods are described about overcoming karma a lot of which require strict yogic discipline and self-enquiry and awareness. The book teaches the importance of understanding karma ( only a gist of which I have mentioned above), how to handle it such that doesn’t interfere with one becoming a truly conscious being. Karma is not just a “reward-and-punishment” matter as the world says it is, it is a lot more than just that, although that too is inclusive.Powerful book for starting on the spiritual path. Very grateful to have read it.I must add one thing here —> the help of a truly liberated ( or enlightened master) is indispensable to help one overcome one’s karma.

Love this book. Go for it. Don't think much. Just go for it

It is a spiritual and philosophical exploration of the concept of karma, offering practical insights into how it influences our lives and how we can consciously shape our destiny.It offers practical tools and wisdom for anyone seeking to live a more conscious and fulfilling life. The book is not only a spiritual guide but also a practical manual for personal growth and transformation.

it's good

This book does not come from the intellect of the mind, or the use of references, logic, or judgment. Instead, it comes from Chitta, the realm of pure awareness. Guruji has brought great clarity to many of life’s questions, about karma, including those about God. I'm deeply grateful to the Divine for sending enlightened souls such as Sadguru to guide and awaken like us who live in ignorance. Thank you, guruji
