Karman and death: everyone trova a subire le conseguenze di azioni compiute in precedenza. Lei ha parlato di "programmazione" della vita: le chiedo qualche commento su questo tema.
Programmare vuol dire agire con consapevolezza, farsi carico in modo responsabile di come "muoviamo" cose e persone intorno a noi. Possiamo farlo secondo tre dinamiche: col pensiero, con le parole e con le azioni. L'azione nasce dal desiderio (kama), si sviluppa nel verbo (vac) e si conclude generalmente nell'atto fisico (karman). Nei Testi Sacri di ritualistica karman sta solitamente ad indicare l'atto per eccellenza, quello sacrificale, l'azione che, se perfettamente eseguita, contiene già in sé il risultato desiderato. Quando invece l'agire è accompagnato da insufficiente consapevolezza, da bassa coscienza, il risultato può prodursi ugualmente ma distorto, imprevisto, non nella direzione desiderata, bensì, magari, in quella opposta. Per progettare il futuro si deve dunque conoscere molto bene la scienza dell'azione, che include la conoscenza delle reazioni. La dottrina del karman assicura a chi la segue il raggiungimento degli obiettivi desiderati; essa viene esposta in maniera accurata nei capitoli quarto e quinto della Bhagavad-gita. La vita incarnata condiziona l'essere a soffrire, ad invecchiare, ad ammalarsi, a morire e a nascere di nuovo. I saggi dell'antichità si sono dunque chiesti: "Ma qual is the action par excellence, able to cleanse the consequences that usually follow from it? ". This act is perfect magnificently represented by the Act out of love for God (bhakti). Action separate, motivated by love for God, not is comparable to that generated by love the world, which has features such as lust, lust, insecurity, ego, and the intense desire to enjoy the ephemeral. For the love that feeling usually means that allows you to take pleasure in giving pleasure to others, but in the Vedic literature the word Bhakti refers exclusively to God and guru and consists of a high and deep sense of faith placed in them love and devotion in equal measure. In this regard Shvetashvatara in the Upanishads (1) we read that spiritual knowledge is revealed to the great soul who puts the same love supreme faith (parabhakti) in God and Master. The art of the action is therefore an act in full but detached from the worldly passions, and at the higher level of consciousness, inspired by a sort of love of God, the Creator, the supreme friends and lovers. Someone can call Harmony Universal Consciousness, Well, but we always talk about the same magnitude, which has infinitely many names, such as Brahman, Paramatman, Bhagavan, Ishvara. The God of grace and mercy, the God of love is Bhagavan, the Supreme Person. The tense action done out of duty and the satisfaction of the Supreme not only allows you to redesign your life in a positive and bright, but means that its author should no longer be reborn in the world of conditioned existence. Those who consider the physical plane as the only existential afraid to leave, but those who perceive higher dimensions, they are not morbidly clinging to the material world, they have a phobic behavior when they sense that must leave. So materialists do not care about: not wanting to leave could the phenomenal universe, it will remain here until all the promises have not been maintained and all debts totally extinct, until then no one can escape from the prison of the material world. In the state of lunacy Prisoners sometimes if they enjoy it carelessly, but the worldly pleasures are short-lived and invariably end up to become distressed. The human body is a work of art, a gem of an instrument of high technological value, which potentially allows you to make exceptional cognitive experiences, but it is fragile and short-lived. Aware of what the smart people are devoted to the science of spiritual realization and transferred to safer levels of consciousness before it reaches the storm, which presents itself, always on time, in the form of sickness, old age and death. Can anyone hope to avoid disease, is more problematic to escape old age, death is inevitable. My challenge in to you is being able to put you in the game, to inspire, lead you to rethink your future, but then it is you who must do it, you have to think with your head and act on their own, I can only give you the guidelines. Normally the physical needs are met easily. Instances of psychological and intellectual progress must be resolved on the higher floors. Where do the tastes, trends, attachments? Not on the physical plane. When the person goes away from the body, that body no longer has any attachment to the contrary, is already underway by the time its dissolution. Attachments instead reside in the mind as anartha (2). In the Upanishads is often said that to be born to life spiritual and material worlds is to die and die and be reborn this does not cause any pain. Take an old band that no longer has anything to do with us, is not painful. It is when the wounds are still open, bleeding, pus, which is painful even the simplest of operations. With the weapon of knowledge, with the virtue of detachment and with a qualified spiritual guide, the fact that the band is even enjoyable. The Bhagavad-Gita (3) states that the discipline of yoga is practiced with joy and produces the greatest happiness (susukham).
(2) An-artha: obstacles to the achievement of purpose (artha). The main ones are the lust or greed in general (kama), anger (krodha), greed (lobha), delusion (moha) and envy (matsara).
(3) Bhagavad-gita IX.2.
