As you begin to walk the soulful path you will
begin to see the world not as physical measurements of gain or loss, but as
soulful pursuits. That is karma and why you are here.
How do we know the soul exist if we can’t measure it? Take a breath.
What causes you to breathe? Not oxygen, but the power that causes movement and
that is prana the life force that gives rise to your existence. Here you
discover your soul.
In yoga the life force that vitalizes everything in the universe is
called prana. It is actually
the energy responsible for the movement of all consciousness in the world. What
lies beneath your consciousness is a force (prana)
that causes it to rise. This we call thinking. As you think so you become. Prana
gives rise to the breath and this gives life to the body and the mind.
When this happens your soul begins to walk its earthly life.
Prana is pure self. It is pure consciousness. This is the force that
pushes the soul to reincarnate. It is the vital energy that brings everything
into being. It lives in the organs of our body and unites all parts of the body
into one unit. The soul gives consciousness to the mind. And so the mind begins
to think. You must now work your karma. But we can’t do the work without the
help of the body. That’s Hatha yoga or the physical aspect of life. And so we are here on earth to work on
finding our balance, flexibility, strength and peace; body, mind and soul. Let’s
get started.
Karma exists as the manifestation of pure energy. It is the vital
force behind the movement of all action and thus the resulting effect. Prana is simply the movement that gives
rise to breath, but is not the breath. Karma is the energy that gives rise to
your actions and thus you experience the results. Prana gives us the power to think. Karma gives us the power to act.
Unlike Descartes who professed,” I think therefore I am.” Karma yoga teaches
that I
am therefore I have the power to think and act. Prana is pure and simple energy that gives birth to the
complexities of life. Karma is the action
we apply to the experiences of life and must therefore except the consequences. So
think kindness, contentment, generosity, happiness, love and peace and you will
discover liberation. And it is here you will discover your soul.

where our souls meet
