Master, by helping others, does it reduce the effects of our own Karma?

Yes, but not in the way that we think it will. We can't steal money and donate a portion of it to a temple and expect reduced Karmic consequences.

A little analogy may help. Say you got lost in a desert. You are walking in the hot sun carrying a big bottle of water, and as you struggle to take each step forward, it's getting darker. Along the way, you noticed a man walking towards you, and he begged for some water. If you give him water now, you may not have enough for your remaining journey.

But, if you decide to give him water, then not only does he get saved and be energised again, but also now you'll have the company of each other, as a motivating factor to keep walking and surviving. There would also be less burden in your bag, since the water quantity has now reduced after being drunk. In pairs, both of you are also better protected.

Somehow out of your carelessness you are lost in the desert, there's nothing you can do about it. You will need to walk and find the way. The suffering has to be endured anyhow.

But will the effects be reduced? Yes. Just like above. But if you kept the water to yourself, you have to go through the journey carrying all the burden, alone and demotivated.

Helping others is like helping ourselves. This is why, despite your hardship, continue doing what you can do for others without expectation. The Nature will bless you along the way and stand by you to ease your sufferings. 💞🫂

Today is Guruji Shri BNS Iyengar 99th birthday, and what else can be a greater blessing than to be in the presence of our beloved Guruji.

He was not even aware that it is his birthday today. As he walked in the Shala, he was suprised to see many flowers being arranged along the walkways. He asked his daughter in Kannada(which is quite understandable) " why all these flowers? " and she went loudly near his ears "ungge barthdeleh indu, barthde barthde ( its your birthday today). He asked "eppo?", and she replied "indu indu(today today) " and replied " ohoh". I noticed this cute conversation, such is this man who has served yoga selflessly to all without expectation, not even fame or money could tempt him. A highly elevated yogi.

"Krishnamarcharya is the Guru. Krishnamarcharya is the reason yoga is here, he started. I started yoga 80 plus years ago, that time all of you were child." (This was funny because even my father was not born yet during that time). The whole area was forest. Veda study was there. But no yoga. Mysore Maharaja and Krishnamarcharya started yoga. And went on sharing us with some vintage stories from the 1930s during Mysore Yoga forming days. What a beautiful day!

Above all, the Guru Bhakti that Guruji has towards Sri Krishnamarcharya is absolutely powerful. Every time he walks into class, he takes blessings from Krishnamarcharya.

I consider myself equally fortunate to receive the same amount of love, respect and gratitude from my dearest students. As our Guru grow older, I feel it in my heart and soul, the love and affection I have for him. Sometimes I wonder why our students are showering so much love towards me, but looking at my own erratic behaviour upon the presence of my Guru, I'm no longer suprised.

I prayed in my heart, for Guruji to bless all our students/teachers of Sakthi School of Yoga and all our affiliated schools, and in no time, as if knowing the nature of this yearning soul, he gave his blessings.

On this auspicious occasion of Gurujis 99th Birthday, I'm sending his exact blessings to all of you my dears

"God Bless You With Everything, May all flourish and progress and get success in Life, Narayana Narayana". 💞🙌🙏

Master, is it true that during the eclipse, pregnant women or everyone in general should avoid going outdoors, or bad things may happen?

Many years ago, after a long day, we returned home and as we parked our car near the lawn in front of our house, my father noticed an unfamiliar 'long rope like item' coiled in front of my house. My father immediately asked us not to come out of the car, he got out and grabbed a stick, and in that darkness started beating away while exclaiming loudly it's a snake. My mom went into a complete panic mode, and asked us not to come out of the car and was worried about my father. I'm not really a snake handler so I stayed in the car and watched the show.

After ensuring the snake was dead, we got out of the car, switched on the light and imagine our suprise when we realised it was a rubber pipe. It was so embarrassing and we laughed so much on that day, at our own ignorance.

We believed on something entirely based on our imagination and started panicking.

Similarly, to believe hearsays and the views of people whose intention or perhaps income depends on deceiving the gullible public, is an insult to our intelligence.

Beloved all, to contemplate that Nature would want to do anything that would bring harm to you itself is wrong. There is absolutely no reason to believe that a spectacular event such as Grahana is going to harm you, in fact this rare phenomenon should be witnessed by all means possible. If there are safety aspects that should be observed, then do so.

No bad things will happen to you, and even if it happens, it has nothing to do with the moon or sun. Both of them have absolutely zero interest on you, the same goes for any other planets.

You're blessed, you're protected, and you will receive grace if you keep your mind not contaminated by these absurd visualisations. Valge Valemuden ❤️🙌🌙
