Yoga and Metaphysics

Explore how the law of karma (cause and effect) can help you grow

What is the relationship between yoga and metaphysics? Both emphasize:  1) that new causes bring new effects and 2) that spiritual awareness involves an ascent into higher consciousness followed by a descent (or manifestation) of that higher consciousness into daily life, health and well being.

Yoga Perspectives, Metaphysics, Karma
  • Metaphysics means beyond physics, beyond our understanding of the physical universe. It also refers to first cause — Spirit, Creator, power, strength, reality
  • Find out about karma (cause and effect) and how it helps us grow and learn
  • Through evolution (karma) we grow, but through involution we grow more quickly. We have insights and inspirations from universal mind which often save us years of evolution
  • As we awaken spiritually, we begin to have ascents into Spirit and descents of Spirit. Spirit moves and expresses in our lives
  • Samadhi reveals Absolute Spirit within us and everywhere
  • We discover that we are spiritual beings learning how to move and express in the Spirit’s creation, the divine play

Let the Fruits of Love Come

The principle is that understanding casts out error. Let the fruits of love come. Love will reform you. You don’t really need karma if you are letting love work and move. It will be there, but the love and connection are the important thing. Let your master be the Infinite Spirit. Don’t let matter be your master.
