Karma Sutra - Hingori - Book Review


The author, in his early life, was a non-believer. Arthritis got him closer to a spiritual person who helped him with the pain of ten years in minutes. 
The author's life changed post that incident. This book is the culmination of his learning and wisdom, which he has shared. The book is also enriched with illustrations and snippets of anecdotes from the author's own life. He explains in detail what Karma is and how the Karmic code is understood. There are various divisions in the book which make for easy reading.

Karma Defined introduces us to Karma and the types of Karma. It also talks of Guru and the importance of Guru in our lives.  The Business of Karma is another section of the book, where we learn more about Karma. Negative and Positive Karma tells us how to improve our Karma and Balance of Karma Theory boosts the reader's confidence in the same.

This book is quite inspiring and even as worksheets for the reader to work upon. This book is also in continuation with the Hingori Sutras Series.

I, have been meaning to pen my thoughts on the book Karma Sutra by Hingori ; finally, I take this medium to extend/ pay my gratitude to the author for simplifying such an intense subject so beautifully and still extensively. It’s a wonderful read, not only for those who are striving for spiritual upliftment/ evolvement but also for beginners and for that matter even a common man. As, the name suggests KARMA: the author has kept actions, deeds, intent, thoughts all-inclusive and with complete ease explained in depth but still at grass root so that all who get their hands on the book benefit and get clarity on the subject. Karma sutra, will most definitely raise goose bumps for the reader as it simply addresses actions in all shape and form and by default a reader will introspect his/ her self while reading the book ; and will auto suggest/ auto reflect one's actions. Karma Sutra is a logical explanation of your life balance sheet and hence paves a path going forward.

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...

Adopt what is right.....

I see that many people of my age group adopt certain western cultures. School students and college goers are often seen buying friendship bands and valentine cards. I feel its not right. You may think I am traditional and don't keep up to date views. But if you think a little maturely you will find out its not modern to wear friendship bands. Its rather pure pride. Now as I am talking about western culture I should tell you that I'm not against it in fact I find some of the western values very much followable like dignity of work, civic sense, accountability etc. We have to maturely decide what to adopt from the westerners and what not to adopt. Why should we go after them when we have a culture of such great versatility? -Priya Joyce

7 Wild healing practices That Healed Me More Than Coaching Ever Did: What If Getting Better Means Getting a Little Wild?

What if healing does not always begin with another question, another worksheet or another carefully worded goal? Wild healing practices invite emotion into the body through movement, sensation, sound, memory and ritual. This first-person journey explores seven unconventional practices that helped me notice what conversation alone could not, while keeping therapy, safety and genuine trauma care firmly in view. Have you ever spent so much time trying to improve yourself that you began to suspect that self-improvement had quietly become another job? I know the feeling. There was a period in my life when I could discuss my emotional patterns with impressive confidence, identify my triggers before breakfast and explain the origin of almost every uncomfortable reaction with the solemn satisfaction of a man who had finally discovered the instruction manual for himself. I was learning, reflecting, journalling, setting intentions and having sensible conversations about growth. On paper, I was d...
