KARMA YOGA, DOING, BEING & FREE WILL CHOICE
Don’t judge what you do. Just do. Without hesitating or thinking or double-thinking about it. When you hesitate or doubt, you are in fact exhibiting a fear-based behavior in the face or what is otherwise a required action on your part. When you can act with no fear or hesitation, there will be no doubtful thoughts appearing in mind. Buddha described Nirvana as Desireless-ness, non-thinking stated another way. When you don’t have to think about what you do, you will be acting as a perfect Karma Yogi, one who achieves Oneness with God thru Action. This is a principle active on the physical level as well as finer levels. When you simply observe even while you are performing an action then you will not judge, doubt, fear or think about what it is you are doing. Then you become “this thing…doing…that thing”.
The less doubt or fear you experience, the more you will experience a kind of ongoing joy similar to an orgasm. That is what a Buddhist monk (who had been celibate for 30 years) meant when he described his personal lack of any need for sex by saying, “When you are coming all the time, what does it matter?”
The more you lose fear and doubt, etc., the more you see life is just a dream that cannot truly hurt the ‘real you’ in any way.
Choose your way in life and then do not doubt your choice…simple. That is concentration because you are not doubting. That is Karma Yoga in action. Then you seem to be beyond just doing, you are being then, just being. Then the effortless flow of God thru you becomes your whole being. The less you doubt and fear, the more God fills you. Empty your cup first, then it will overflow with God.
Just have no doubt. Choose and do and be. The more you choose to stop doubting, the more God will be with you. Then your actions will be divine, as if God had done them. And the work you do will find its way into needful hands even without you having to advertise it.
That is about as simple an explanation of a divine life in action. Do with no judgment, fear, or doubt. Just be, and know within yourself that it is all a dream. That is all.
Do you judge a dream at night while you are dreaming? Of course not! You are just experiencing it. So let it be also with the waking hours, just experiencing with no judgment. Why judge something that isn’t even real, isn’t even there in the first place?!? Why judge everything or anything in life when life itself is just a dream in the first place? If you are judging it, then you can’t enjoy it for the fanciful thing it is!
Seen from one perspective, fear is a reaction to the fact that we don’t know it is God’s Will that is trying to occur and all we have to do is give in to that Will. And when we see that doing everything with no judgment or fear is the way to live, then you will see it is God’s Will, because you can’t hurt yourself in a dream that is not really of God.
Choose what comes naturally. It is God’s will that comes naturally when you get out of the way. It is then God that does all the action. You are so in tune with it that you realize you are one with God even as God does it thru you. Choose to do God’s will by doing what is natural, and what is natural is merely that which you are attracted to, that which excites you.
And there is not much you can do in life except to play your little part, which is meant for you because you have already chosen it, and it is merely manifesting before you. So why choose to not choose that which you chose so freely?
