Karma Yoga at Rishikul Yogshala
At Rishikul Yogshala, we honor a set of cherished rituals with every new batch of students. These include fire ceremonies, acts of Karma Yoga, cleaning the surroundings, helping those in need, and practising yoga on the beach. Such acts of kindness and purity help to cleanse, discipline, and detoxify the mind of budding yogis. This year, Rishikul Yogshala’s new batch of yoga teacher training students participated in Karma Yoga within the ashram premises.

Karma Yoga, as described in the Bhagavad Gita—the holy scriptures of Hindu culture—guides the yogi to relinquish false ego. The Bhagavad Gita states: “Thy right is to work only, but never with its fruits; let not the fruits of action be thy motive, nor let thy attachment be to inaction. As the ignorant men act from attachment to action, so should the wise act without attachment, wishing the welfare of the world.” This form of yoga teaches that no act is too big or small when performed with full intention and devotion. We must act selflessly, without expecting results. Such acts become seva (service), regardless of their nature.
We have witnessed many yogis engaging in charitable acts, such as cleaning temple floors and offering food to the needy. This sense of responsibility towards society, from which we receive so much, fosters a balance through selfless service.
