The A to Z of Karma

What is Karma? Karma means Action 

It is the Law of Action and Reaction

If we sin, if we do bad, we will weep What we sow is what we will reap

Nobody can escape the Law of Karma

It is Karma that is controlling the earthly Drama 

Because of past Karma, we experience trauma 

Our Ultimate Goal is to attain Moksha!

Because we live in ignorance, we cry

We do not realize, 'Who am I?'

When anything happens, we look up at the sky 

With tears in our eyes, we ask, ‘Why?'

We don't realize who controls this show It is not God, who makes us come and go 

God has created the Karmic Law

And this Law works without a flaw

Karma is a Divine Law

It is just another Universal Law

It governs everything that happens on earth 

All that unfolds, even our death and our birth

Every time, we do a task

'What happens, then?,’ We must not ask 

Good or bad, is recorded by Karma Then, we have to face the drama

Who does Karma belong to?

The Body acts, isn't this True?

But it is not the Body, it's the Ego and the Mind 

That is the owner of Karma, we will find

One day, the Body is sure to die

At death, the Body will return to dust

The Mind and Ego, ME carrying unsettled Karma Will return in a rebirth, this is a must!

The Body forms later, first, comes the Soul

To realize this, is our Ultimate Goal

But our own Mind makes us blind

Alas! We don't realize, we are not the Body nor the Mind

In ignorance, we continue to live and die We suffer our Karma, we often cry

This suffering will just go on and on

We will live, die and be reborn

As long as we don't Realize the Divine Truth

If we don't get to the bottom of the root

We will live, perform actions and create Karma 

And we will be caught in this Leela, this Drama

But if we realize, we are not the Ego, Body and the Mind 

Then, all Karma is dropped and left behind

We realize, we are the Soul, it has no Karma

And so we are free from this Drama and its trauma

Is it easy, from Karma, to be free?

Can everybody be free from the Mind and Ego, ME?

For this, we have to escape the accounts of Karma, all three 

We are the Divine Soul, then, we will see

With the opening balance, Prarabdha Karma, we start 

Then, Agami Karma, as we do our earthly part 

Finally, Sanchita Karma, after we depart

We must drop all Karma, we must learn the Art

We must drop all the accounts of Karma, three 

And then, from Karma, we will be free

We do not have to return to earth

We will be free at death, from rebirth

But how will we achieve this Ultimate Goal?

We mustn’t live as the body and mind but as the Soul

We must live as a Divine Instrument, from Karma, being Free 

Liberated and living as who we are meant to be

In that moment, when the Body will die When we realize, I am not 'I’

Then, we will rejoice, we will not cry

As we become one with the Power in the sky

This is the Purpose of our Life on earth

Ultimately, to be free from the cycle of rebirth

First, we are free from the suffering of the Body, Ego and Mind 

Then, we are free from all Karma, we Find!

If we don't Realize the Truth of Karma

Then, even with good Karma, we will be caught in the Drama 

Coming to earth, we will experience trauma

Our Ultimate Goal is to attain Moksha

The A to Z of Karma, those who learn

Their Enlightenment, their wisdom, makes them earn 

Once they die and their body burn

They will attain God, they will not return!
