Overview
• Continual Inflow of Karma • Subtle things we can do • Most importantly – thought provoking
discussion, things to reflect on, find what resonates with you

The
Continual Inflow of Karma
• Every single moment • Every thought, intention, breath &
movement • Wholesome and unwholesome karma • Mental Attitude

Page #4

Four Metrics to Describe Karma
• Type • Number/Quantity • Duration • Intensity
Duration, intensity and quantity are determined by the intensity of our emotional engagement at the time of the binding of the karmas

Page #5

Emotional Engagement
• Negative Passions (Kashaya):
- Angel - Ego/Pride – Deceit - Greed
We ultimately want to reduce these and shift from unwholesome to wholesome karma

Page #6

How Can We Do This
• We can't just decide to • We can make changes through our small
actions which in turn evoke larger, more
significant change • It is an evolving process – it is a SUBTLE
process that starts with the little things

Page #7

How Can We Do This
• There is no one answer • Comes with understanding • I will discuss things that resonated with me • This did not come about overnight

Soap & Personal Care Products
• If it doesn't say it is - it most likely isn't • The by product of 10 billion
If you don't want to eat or touch it - why cleanse yourself with it

Page #10

Non-Veg Products & By Products
• Negative energy • Post funeral? • Impurity • Violence stays with the product • High unnatural secretions of hormones
This is where subtlety comes in - these are the little things we CAN control

Silk
• Worms boiled/heated alive • 1,500 worms yield 1 meter of cloth • Is a silk blouse or sari really pretty?

Page #23

Alcohol
• Emotional engagement • Increases intensity of kashaya or passions • Anger – Pride – Deceit – Greed • Male/female attraction, overall
attraction/repulsion, fear, sorrow, hatred • This removes the inhibition to commit the
five sins (violence, lying, stealing, lewd behavior, possessiveness) • Huge impediment on spiritual journey

Page #24

Honey
• Represents the death of innumerable
bees, larva, pupa, and their eggs in the
honeycomb • Regurgitated material from the stomach
of bees
