"The very first step in understanding what this is all about is giving up the concept of an active, volitional 'I' as a separate entity and accepting the passive role of perceiving and functioning as a process." - Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

How Does Karma Help?

Sri Ramana Maharshi

Karma done unselfishly purifies the mind and helps to fix it in meditation.


What if one meditates incessantly without Karma?

Try and see. The vAsanas will not let you do it. DhyAna  comes only step by step with the gradual weakening of the vAsanas by the Grace of the Master.

सर्वभूताधिवासं यद्भूतेषु च वसत्यपि।
सर्वानुग्राहकत्वेन तद्स्म्यहं वासुदेवः॥

That in whom reside all beings and who resides in all beings,
who is the giver of grace to all, the Supreme Soul of the universe, the limitless being:
I AM THAT. -- Amritabindu Upanishad
