Q3. What is the path of my liberation?
Answer: There are many paths to liberation. One of those is Karma. Always do Karma with good virtues such as honesty, truthfulness, kindness, compassion, love, generosity, morality, etc. to attain liberation. Let us slowly eliminate vices such as Selfishness, Envy, Ego, Greed, Lust, etc. Here are a few important virtues we must adopt in the path of liberation:
- Selfless Action (निःस्वार्थपर)
- Give up ‘I’ and ‘Mine’. In life embrace everyone and everything
- When you see everyone and everything in the universe as your own, then there is no place for ‘I’ and ‘Mine’
- Detachment – Free from bondage (बंधनहीन)
- Detachment from everyone and everything
- Be with everyone and everything but without attachment
- Desireless (अनासक्त)
- Perform your duties by dedicating the results to the Supreme God
- Give up material desires
- Renunciation – Full self-sacrifice (पूर्ण आत्मत्याग)
- The sacrifice of ‘Self’ in the highest form
- Give your belongings to needy people when you need those the most
*Good Karma: When one does Karma following the above, then it is Good Karma.
