Kausaggam
– The art of mastering karma
In philosophical language, the concept of ‘SELF’ is all about what we are….our nature, our virtues, our very existence. The worldly beings (jeevah) tend to identify the SELF as nothing but the physical body & existence and the experiences gained through it ; an over powering state of delusion(Maya) prevails !
The perception of the SELF has to be rectified; the SELF has to be experienced in its pure form….The pure Self is the eternal identity of the living. All its innate virtues represent its ‘Swabhaav’ (original form) – the true and pure expression of the Soul. Spirituality aims to reveal the true nature of our existence. Kausaggam is the mahasadhana which serves this purpose.
The philosophy of Life is simply explained as a vicious cycle of ignorance – false beliefs – intentions – emotion – action – karma. Karma is both good or bad and pure or impure. The fundamental spiritual principle is to manifest karma that helps you evolve. Kausaggam is the key to mastering karma energy.
‘Kausaggam’ is a special word that suggests the disassociation of the SELF from falsehood and toxins that pollute the soul. It is the renunciation of the limiting factors; the abandoning of all activities which are impure and cause harm to the SELF. Hence, it is the ultimate spiritual effort that every seeker must master.
Kausaggam is practised at 3 levels :
- Chesta kausagga : Purifying your external world
- Abhibhava Kausagga : Purifying your internal world
- Maha Kausagga : Purifying your karma world
Kausaggam and karma form the nucleus of our existence. Kausaggam is the Maha Sadhana that purifies the Karma energy and thus transform you to your highest potential.
