It is a wrong action where we break the the rules of the scriptures, so the the scriptures are telling us how to move from Tamoguna to Rajoguna to Satoguna, the mode of goodness and
Vikrama means do as your senses say, so at the end of life when you have to account for your senses, it is not a the question of let this queen come, it is a question of the jeevatma (soul).

Ok if you are not interested in meeting God right now, something is better than nothing. Tie yourself up in all this these rules,
now of course, since you want the world you will fulfill the rules, so you will at least remain in the Vedas, you will remain disciplined, you will not become frivolous, you will keep on doing Karma,
so the Karma is praised from the perspective that something is better than nothing, but then after you have been doing Karma for so many life times and you realize that ultimately Karma just takes you to heaven and come back,
then the Vedas say, look, if you want to realize God, then this is not going to help, so that is what is Karma.

On the other side, the second is Vikarma, what is Vikarma, it is wrong actions, Vikrama is where we break the rules of the scriptures so the scriptures are telling us how to move from Tamoguna to Rajoguna to Satoguna, the mode of goodness and Vikarma means do as your senses say, do as your mind says

the vikrami says you know the people who wake up early in the morning, they are crazy, they say get up early two hours before sunrise and do your sandhya vandan and your puja and sadhna,
I wake up at 9 am in the morning and then I have bed tea in my bed, and then I smoke a cigarette and go to the to the toilet and in the toilet I read the newspaper and magazine, so those people who say that there is no need for rules, they come in the category of Vikarma.

Lord Krishna says, Arjun, you do need to understand this. The Karma takes you to the celestial abode heaven, and Vikarma will take you downwards, “verse” very simple formula.

There was this Rani, queen of the ancient days, she to live in great opulence, the king and queen, so she used to have wonderful luxurious room with wonderful bed, now her maid servant used to set her bed up everyday
and on this evening she set up the bed very soft cotton mattress and on top of that a silken sheet and on top of that flower petals and then some perfume sprinkled around and that poor lady started thinking how much happiness will the queen be getting from sleeping on this bed, I wish I could also do it, she used to sleep on the charpai,
so she looked at the clock, there was still half an hour for the queen to come, she went and closed the door, she thought she has closed it but it did not close, very soon she went and lay down on the bed,

7
now when somebody gets a pleasure opulence for the first time, they experience great happiness in it, later on it becomes common place, so she experienced so much of bliss that in 3 minutes she went to sleep,
now when she is sleeping, then which king and which queen (i.e., one looses all sensation/onsciousness of surroundings), the whole chapter is closed, the queen came, she opened the door and she found her maid in the bed snoring,
so the Queen was indignant (angry), ha ! my servant is doing this, she has the guts ! she called the guards, take her away and whip her 50 lashes, so her instruction is the command that poor lady was dragged away and they started whipping her,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ny54295-Prc&t=268
8
she kept on yelling, every time she was beaten till 25 lashes, on the 26th lash, she suddenly started laughing, the people asked what happened ? everybody stood up, the Queen also found it astonishing, she said that by now you should have been frightened, why are you laughing ?
the maid said Rani sahiba, I was laughing because I slept on this bed for half an hour, and the punishment I got, was 50 lashes, you have been sleeping on it all your life, what punishment will you get ? because at the end of life when you have to account for your senses, it is not a question of let this queen come, it's a question of the jivatma (soul)

Yamraj ji says, did you do this ? yes, I did, you did this ? yes, alright then, here are the results, Yamraj I am very very sorry, Yamraj says this will not do, you should have thought at that time,
so the Vikarma results in miseries in the lower forms of existence and the Karma results in a gradual elevation from Tamoguna to Rajoguna To Satoguna but the purpose of God realization is not served by either Karma or Vikarma,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ny54295-Prc&t=393
10
so the third now comes Akarma, Akarma is when you do your bodily duties without attachment to the results, you offer the results for the pleasure of God, now the Karma is being done but the inner thought is it is all for the pleasure of My Lord
& since there is no selfish motive, one Is free from the consequences and that becomes Akarma , another name for Akarma is Karma yoga So Lord Krishna has now explained Karma, Vikarma and Karma Yog

It is a wrong action where we break the
0:03
the rules of the scriptures, so the
0:06
the scriptures are telling us how to move
0:08
from Tamoguna to Rajoguna to Satoguna, the mode of
0:12
goodness and Vikrama means do as your senses
0:17
say, so at the end of life when you have
0:20
to account for your senses, it is not a
0:24
the question of let this queen come,
0:28
it is a question of the jeevatma (soul).
0:32
Ok if you are not interested in meeting
0:35
God right now, something is better than nothing.
0:38
Tie yourself up in all this
0:41
these rules, now of course, since you want the world
0:45
you will fulfill the
0:46
rules, so you will at least remain in the Vedas,
0:52
you will remain disciplined, you will not become
0:57
frivolous, you will keep on doing Karma, so
1:01
the Karma is praised from the perspective
1:04
that something is better than
1:06
nothing, but then after you have been doing
1:09
karma for so many life times and you
1:12
realize that ultimately Karma just takes you
1:15
to heaven and come back, then the Vedas say, look,
1:21
if you want to realize God, then this is not
1:26
going to help,
1:28
so that is what is Karma. On the other side, the
1:32
second is
1:35
Vikarma, what is
1:37
Vikarma, it is wrong
1:40
actions, vikrama is where we break the rules
1:44
of the scriptures so the scriptures are
1:47
telling us how to move from Tamoguna to
1:50
Rajoguna to Satoguna, the mode of goodness and
1:54
Vikarma means do as your senses say, do as
1:59
your mind says, the vikrami says you know the
2:03
people who wake up early in the morning, they are
2:06
crazy, they say get up early two hours before
2:10
sunrise and do your sandhya vandan and your
2:12
puja and sadhna, I wake up at 9 am in the
2:19
morning and then I have bed tea in my
2:23
bed, and then I smoke a cigarette and go
2:27
to the
2:28
to the toilet and in the toilet I read the
2:30
newspaper and
2:33
magazine, so those people who say that there is no
2:37
need for rules, they come in the category of
2:41
Vikarma. Lord Krishna says, Arjun, you do need
2:45
to understand Vikarma. The Karma takes you
2:49
to the celestial abode heaven, and
2:52
Vikarma will take you downwards, “verse”
very simple
3:15
formula. There was this Rani, queen of the
3:19
ancient days, she to live in great opulence,
3:23
the king and queen
3:26
so she used to have wonderful luxurious
3:30
room with wonderful bed, now her maid
3:34
servant used to set her bed up
3:38
everyday and on this evening she set up the bed
3:42
very soft cotton mattress and on top of
3:45
that
3:46
a silken sheet and on top of that flower
3:50
petals and then some perfume sprinkled
3:54
around and that poor lady started
3:58
thinking how much happiness will the queen be
4:02
getting from sleeping on this
4:05
bed, I wish I could also do it, she used
4:08
to sleep on the
4:10
charpai,
4:11
so she looked at the clock, there was still
4:15
half an hour for the queen to come, she went and
4:19
closed the door, she thought she has closed it but
4:22
it did not close, very soon she went and
4:26
lay down on the
4:28
bed, now when somebody gets a pleasure
4:32
opulence for the first time, they experience
4:36
great happiness in it, later on it becomes
4:39
common
4:40
place, so she experienced so much of bliss
4:44
that in 3 minutes she went to
4:47
sleep, now when she is sleeping, then which king
4:51
and which queen, the whole chapter is
4:55
closed, the queen
4:57
came, she opened the door and she found her maid
5:03
in the bed
5:05
snoring, so the Queen was indignant (angry), ha !
5:11
my servant is doing this, she has the guts !
5:16
she called the guards, take her
5:18
away and whip her 50
5:23
lashes, so her instruction is the command that
5:28
poor lady was dragged away and they
5:30
started whipping
5:32
her, she kept on yelling, every time she was
5:35
beaten till 25 lashes, on the 26th lash, she suddenly
5:40
started
5:42
laughing, the people asked what happened ?
5:45
everybody stood up, the Queen also found it
5:48
astonishing, she said that by now you should
5:52
have been frightened, why are you
5:54
laughing ? the maid said Rani sahiba, I was
5:59
laughing
6:01
because I slept on this bed for half an hour,
6:05
and the punishment I got, was 50 lashes,
6:11
you have been sleeping on it all your
6:15
life, what punishment will you get ?
6:18
because at the end of life when you have
6:22
to account for your senses, it is not a
6:25
question of let this queen
6:29
come, it's a question of the jivatma (soul),
6:33
Yamraj ji says, did you do this ? yes, I did,
6:38
you did this ?
6:40
yes, alright then, here are the results, Yamraj
6:45
I am very very sorry, Yamraj says this will not do, you
6:48
should have thought at that time, so the Vikarma
6:53
results in miseries in the lower forms of
6:58
existence and the Karma results in a
7:01
gradual elevation from Tamoguna to Rajoguna
7:05
To Satoguna but the purpose of God realization is
7:10
not served by
7:12
either Karma or Vikarma, so the third now comes
7:16
Akarma, Akarma is when you do your bodily
7:23
duties without attachment
7:27
to the
7:28
results, you offer the results for the pleasure
7:32
of God,
7:34
now the Karma is being done but the inner thought is
7:40
it is all for the pleasure of My
7:44
Lord & since there is no selfish motive, one
7:49
Is free from the
7:52
consequences and that becomes
7:56
Akarma , another name for Akarma is Karma yoga
8:02
So Lord Krishna has now explained Karma,
8:05
Vikarma and Karma Yog
