3. O.W. Barth Karma

The world-renowned yoga master Sadhguru provides insights into one of the most important questions in his authentic life guide: How can we influence our destiny and lead a happy life? Most people understand karma as a balance of good and bad deeds. However, karma is not an endless source of entanglements, nor a sinister mechanism of rewards and punishments. Sadhguru brings our understanding of karma back to its original meaning of freedom and empowerment. Karma is about responsibility. It does not come to us from the outside, but is generated by us from within. The accumulation of karma—both positive and negative—is determined solely by how we think, feel, and act, or how we respond in situations. Through the methods of the yoga master, we learn to live intelligently happy lives, and above all, more confidently and autonomously in a challenging world. "Karma" is both an informational and practical book. Sadhguru puts us back in the driver's seat of our lives and helps us take control with concrete exercises.
