the path of Karma Yoga
Karma means ''action'', and action always comes with a reaction, following the laws of this Creation. According to the Bhagavad Gita, Karma Yoga is the spiritual practice of selfless action performed for the benefit of others. When we focus on others, our world expands and we increase our capacity for connection and Self-realization.
It is the concept of selfless service that is performed without any expectation of result or award for performing it, to benefit other human beings and animals and the society that they live in. In practicing Karma Yoga, Atman Yoga serves others by donating an amount of each booking to help organizations like Chloe Orphans in Bali, Greek Animal Rescue, and others.
