Hari Om!
Bhagavān Shankarāchārya ji concludes "Tattvabodha" with definitions of three types of karmas and a happy statement that Jīvanmukta, free from all bondages of all karmas, crosses over samsāra.
Swāmi Aparājitānanda ji elaborates on today's topic, "karma" and gives a graceful walkthrough of all definitions in Tattvabodha as if creating a divine orchestra in harmony with Jīva, Jagat and Ishvara. Definitions of Tattvabodha given by Shankarācharyaji are the melody of life, while Swāmiji's beautiful explanations are the notation of that melody.
Last, but never the least:
• When should we attain liberation - before death or after death? How?
• Is Sadguru-upadesha necessary? Why? (ocean water example)
• What is interpretation of the term 'karma' in Spirituality?
• Jīvanmukta is freed from which kind of actions?
• What are āgāmi, sanchita, prārabdha karmas? How are they related to each other?
• When do karmas bind you?
• What is a Jīvanmukta's attitude to karmas?
• Can a Jñāni commit pāpa karmas?
• When do our actions fructify?
• What is the meaning of "chi"?
• Who gives the results of our actions?
• Which karma decides our present birth, jāti, āyu, etc.?
• Can prārabdha be by-passed?
• Who enjoys fruits of action?
• How are āgāmi karmas destroyed in the case of a Jñāni?
• To whom do fruits of action of a Jñāni go?
• "Whatever you think, so you become."
• Which action has been compared with a shot arrow? Why?
• Can one escape from fruits of action by committing suicide?
• How long to go through karmas? When are karmas exhausted? And when are they destroyed?
• For a Jīvanmukta, which place of death is most auspicious?!
• What does a Jīvanmukta gain? When does the birth-death cylce end for him?
P.S. Don't miss Shankarācharyaji's guidance from the scriptures on how to tackle prārabdha karma.
