Jigrativ, Jiamasters.

Spiritual growth is more like an art than it is a practice.

You will practice. Practices are willful, hard is spontaneous.

How do you make to close the gap between just rawly doing practices and becoming an artist?

I don't often do it, but I ended up on the web listening to Yuggananda giving a little speech about karma.

It interested me because he's my guru, but I don't try to follow exactly the teachings that he said.

I just walked my path. I've always done that.

And what was amazing was he gave this talk about

karma and every time he used the word karma, it could be substituted for the words from Skora.

I never saw that before, all right? And I never saw him use the words from Skara. I'm sure he did,

but not in this discussion. So what did he say?

He said, karma isn't the way you think it is. What karma is, is when you do an action,

inside, it leaves an impression. And that impression ends up causing you

to act certain ways.

It guides

what you're doing.

And that goes across

lifetimes.

So impressions that you left

in your past life, current life, they're still there.

They're not held in the physical body.

They're held deeper into the energy body.
