"Let my love be measured by giving and not by gain"
The law of cause and effect, or karmic law, is the principle that as you sow, so shall you reap. Karma forms an integral part of the subtle body and exists in the subtle body in an impression form.

To reach from here to some other place in England, the freewill will tell you, you take a motor car or a horse or whatever you want to use. Your freewill will analyse what you have to do.

Now when man realises that all is one and in the relative field everything must have its opposite. Pain must have pleasure and the other way round. Sunshine will bring rain. Cold will have its opposite in heat. And when a person resolves this and truly understands the law of opposites

there is no separation in anything whatsoever. Here in this world we might think in the terms of billions and billions upon billions of atoms all got together to make up this world, but looking at it from a distance, from another plane, this whole world is but just one atom.

So in the progress of evolution since beginless time, as the universe assumed various cycles of existences for all that is created, must perish. All that is born must be preserved, then it decays and then it dies. And from those very ashes, from the dissolution, another universe comes into being but this is still governed under the laws of relativity.

Now, we come to the last section of Niyama. The Sanskrit word is Ishwar Pranidarn, Ishwar Pranidam. That is what all religions are about, ‘Self-surrender to Divinity’. We talk and we read about, ‘Thy will be done’ – lip service. As long as we have this me and mine, Thee and Thine are forgotten, always. Self-surrender would imply this very principle, ’Thy will be done’. Now if you cannot surrender yourself to the impersonal God, the transcendental Divinity, then surrender yourself to the imminent God.
Questioner: Guruji, this question arises from the difficulty I have with the concept of the Personal God, God with form and I ask myself what is that form? And then I understand from the things that you have said in the past that the Personal God, Ishvara, continues to exist during the present cycle of […]
Thoughts are very persistent things. They go on and on. The more you fight them and the more you push them away, the more they come and take you deeper into the whirlpool of samskaras. If it is not possible to discipline the mind then it is very possible to discipline the body. The body […]
The spiritual path does not need to be difficult or cumbersome. You will find obstacles, which is good. The greatest teacher in life is obstacles. So every obstacle that comes in your path, be thankful. One way to be thankful to obstacles is to become the observer of the obstacle. When you become the observer of the obstacle, the obstacle does not hurt you.

So when we reach the stage, and it’s not really easy, and joking apart, not easy, but we can develop this sense of non attachment. We don’t need to look far. It is right here and now, with everything.
