Actions Matter
Have you ever wondered, “Why do my actions lead in the opposite direction to where I want to go?” or “How does this action serve me?” “Why aren’t outcomes aligning with my intentions?”
Today we’re diving into the subject of Karma. What it is and what it isn’t. Karma is a Sanskrit word that means action. When we are mindful, we become aware of the nature of Karma. Karma can be described as the cycle of cause—the actions we take— and effect—the outcomes they produce. In each present moment we can be aware of the working of Karma.
We can choose how we are going to be with our actions—of body, speech, and mind. We can do something, say something, or even think something and it has an effect. How our actions align with our intentions and outcomes is important to how we are in the world—satisfied and happy or unsatisfied and in pain. It’s up to us.
So, I invite you to mindfully explore your intentions and actions and the outcomes that spring from them.
