What does it mean to carry out an action without being bound or attached? And how can you act without creating new karma? And how can you act in such a way that you grow spiritually? Sukadev http://wiki.yoga-vidya.de/Sukadev summarizes the last two lectures on the Bhagavad Gita http://wiki.yoga-vidya.de/Bhagavadgita and then discusses these questions and how you can implement them in your everyday life. Sukadev uses various diagrams to help you. For example, he shows various motives that can motivate you to act. For example, you can act to serve a person or God, or out of responsibility. He also explains how you can best act, namely always to act as well as you can. You can feel like an instrument, without feeling like you are the one doing the acting, and as equanimous as possible in success and failure and without attachment to the fruits (reward, praise and blame). You can offer everything to God - without attachment to the action, without attachment to the result and the fruits. God does everything, nature does everything (from Prakriti, the creation that develops from primordial matter and the Gunas, the three properties of nature), nothing happens. This is a lecture from the lecture series "Yoga Vidya Training - The Holistic Yoga Path" - http://wiki.yoga-vidya.de/YVS001 as well as part of the 2-year yoga teacher training https://www.yoga-vidya.de/ausbildung-... Yoga teacher training, a lecture as part of the "Karma Yoga Series" and a lecture as part of the "Bhagavad Gita Lecture Series".
