Talk:Transcending Karm through mokṣa:Karm Yog and Karm:Destruction of Prārabdha Karm by Karm Yog

By Vishal Agarwal

The karm yogī gets his prārabdha karm of course but he is unperturbed and unaffected by it. The reasons are that he does his entire work for the benefit of others, without any attachment to the acts or to their fruit, without any desires or aversions and for the sake of the Bhagavān, as worship to Him. Consequently, he is satisfied with his ātmā and has gratitude towards the Divine at all times. Whatever comes his way, he accepts the same cheerfully and as a gift of the Bhagavān. For this reason, his prārabdha karm becomes ineffective or practically inoperative.

He who is contented with whatever is obtained by chance, who has gone beyond the dualities (of pleasure and pain), who is free from jealousy, who remains even minded in success and failure – even when such a person acts, he is not bound. Gītā 4.22
