About

A compact summary of Śaṅkara’s meaning Here is the whole thing in a compact form: Karma
Prescribed action; in general, action done under the notion of doership. Vikarma
Prohibited action; action opposed to scriptural injunction, born of ignorance and desire. Akarma
Non-action; ultimately the actionlessness of the Self, which never acts. Seeing akarma in karma
While actions occur in body-mind, the wise one knows the Self is actionless. Seeing karma in akarma
What appears as non-action may still be action if ignorance, ego, omission of duty, or subtle mental activity remain. Freedom from karma-phala
Comes because doership is destroyed by knowledge; without the sense “I am the doer,” karma cannot bind.  Hari aum!
