<br />
WHY DO WE DO ANYTHING AT ALL ???<br />
<br />
(Including going to temple,Guru, Master, etc. reading scriptures and all)<br />
<br />
<br />
I have tried to explain the above in the following lines.<br />
<br />
1. After landing on earth from unknown through womb we start learning (basically sense organs in conjunction with neurons are trained to function in a synchronized way which is called conditioning).<br />
<br />
2. Further alongwith conditioning we start learning on our own too by way of imitation.<br />
<br />
3. We come to know various concepts including the basic concept "I". These concepts have utility values but are not true in themselves--means AS SUCH they have no existence of their own.<br />
<br />
4. This gives rise to a sense of memory/mind/thoughts....etc. etc. This mind cannot exist without body, but body can very well exist without this mind.(People in comatose, deep sleep state are examples of existence of body without mind.)<br />
<br />
5. This mind functions (movement of thoughts) only if a target/goal is given to the body-mind structure as this instrument has been trained on this pattern only.<br />
<br />
6. For a normal life to lead both the instruments i.e. body and mind must function in harmony with each other.........may not be fully harmonised.<br />
<br />
7. Target/goal---means lack of that targeted thing. If one already have something he/she will not make that a target. How this lack is created is a different issue. Many factors are involved, but the central factor is conditioning.<br />
<br />
8. Body----When the body is lacking in something we name it disease. In order to fill that (lack) we do many things including going to doctors. This (removing the sense of lacking) makes sense as without body(by grace/virtue of which we are known in this world, but unfortunately we have given more importance to the mind than the body------in fact both are equally important......but base remains the body). All animals do this.<br />
<br />
8. Mind----- A concept ...nomenclature given to the interpretation of impulses reaching brain..........interpreted by the brain cells as per conditioning/training received as mentioned above in point no. 1. Hence, impulses produced due to various factors (known and unknown) do have their existence AS SUCH (EEG), but the thoughts don't have their existence AS SUCH. Hence, the mind also does not has its existence AS SUCH.<br />
<br />
9. When the basic needs (mainly food) of a person get secured, the attention (consciousness) shifts to the brain in stead of basic body demands. Attention is nothing but an expression of energy only which is produced by the body. This attention (not related to basic needs) is in fact spare/excess as the person does not know how to spend that. Hence, the excessive movement of thoughts (mind) comes into the picture and this excess energy gets consumed. And due to imitating/compulsive behaviour due to conditioning creates a sense of needs other than the basic ones and makes the person move towards indulging in other activities including the so called religion/spirituality as others are also engaged in.<br />
<br />
10. This unconscious desire of spending this excess energy (about which we are not aware) gives rise to a sense of feeling as if we are lacking something. Sexual activity more than required for procreation is also included in this (lacking feeling). In order to fulfill this sense of lacking we go on accumulating various goods. Not only that we go on accumulating the so called various knowledge (information) without being aware why we are doing.....just trying to fulfill the sense of lacking. And one day while engaged in these activities, the body comes to a stage when it is unable to sustain the life in this form---death. But no one wants to die. Hence, in order to have a sense of continuity even after death of body somehow the idea of immortality was conceptualised and in order to give this concept a solid base many concepts like God, Soul, Atma, Parmatman, etc were devised. With the passage of time first came the idea of religion then spirituality.<br />
<br />
11. Hence, the reason behind going to religions and spirituality is nothing but to get rid of a sense of non-fulfillment (feeling of lacking something). In a sense this is a disease of mind only which we try to "solve/get rid of" by going to temple, Baba, Guru, Masters, etc. I am not saying going to them is wrong, but I have just tried to analyse the the reason behind all these drama (Leela).<br />

DO YOU WANT TO LOOSE YOURSELF ?????????<br /><br /><br /><br />I have experienced/observed/analysed or many of us might have too that "one (as understanding---at thought level) is always getting replaced by another other up to certain extent by way of in<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">teraction".<br /><br />But that is not being done purposely/knowingly i.e. we are not aware of this happening.<br /><br />The replacement i.e. "the merger of understanding" or "two different understandings becoming one", happens unknowingly and later on one realises this , the symptom of which(realisation) is "feeling a sense of loss of oneself" and then one reacts.<br /><br />If you look into your day to day life this is actually what is happening with you or everybody is engaged in this only over and above of the engagement for fulfilling the basic needs.<br /><br />Perhaps this is happening because of the unconscious desire to merge with the others/whole, but at the same time the conditioning which gives you the sense of individual identity (feeling/knowledge of separation) does not want it (merger) to happen.<br /><br />Hence, the conflict between you (EGO-conditioning) and the unconscious desire surfaces suddenly later on when you(ego) find that you have been lost to a certain extent.<br /><br />And you as a separate illusory identity start blaming other with whom you have merged.<br /><br />Perhaps at unconsciousness level a feeling of happiness (peace/relaxation) goes on increasing due to getting merged (as that is the eternal desire) while at conscious level when it comes to your notice the reactions happen in various ways generally we label them as negatives.<br /><br />This happens when you (ego) feel lost i.e. your understanding and others's understanding do not exist as two, but one.<br /><br /><br />Through music/art etc. or for that matter any activity where other is not a human being we are unconsciously doing the same(trying to merge).<br /><br />But here conflict of ego does not happen as that can happen only in case of two human beings.<br /><br /><br /><br />Perhaps even all the sexual activities are also nothing<br /><br />but<br /><br />"symptoms of this unconscious desire of getting merged".<br /><br /><br />That is why if you want to retain your illusory identity---EGO---then remain always alert while interacting with others in any manner to avoid the future pain and blame game.</span></div>

I AM ON THE 15th PLANE---Osho<br /><br /><br /><br />The followers of Radhaswami cult in Agra wanted to try to make something better than the Taj Mahal, because thousands of tourists were coming every day to see the Taj Mahal.<br /><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;"><br />Naturally they thought it was not only a question of prestige, it was also a question of business. It had been going on for almost one hundred years.<br /><br />They had been able to make only the ground floor.<br /><br />Certainly they have made it far better than the Taj Mahal, but there seems to be no possibility that they will be able to complete it.<br /><br />They wanted to make it a three-story building, so it goes higher than the Taj Mahal, but all the money that they could collect from their followers from all over India is finished.<br /><br />For one hundred years continuously thousands of workers have been involved in making it.<br /><br /><br />I have seen.... Their pillars are so beautiful, so creative: on the pillars they have made creepers in marble.<br /><br />And the creepers have green flowers of green marble and roses on top of the creepers made in rubies, emeralds, diamonds.<br /><br />They have certainly made it clear that if they complete it -- even incomplete -- it has gone beyond the Taj Mahal.<br /><br />They are immensely happy.<br /><br />They invited me when I was speaking at Agra University....<br /><br />They invited me to show me their incomplete memorial.<br /><br />They have done a tremendously great job.<br /><br /><br /><br />They took me inside.<br /><br />Inside they have a map drawn on the marble and on the map there are fourteen divisions.<br /><br />They have put all the enlightened people that they could think of in the division to which he belongs.<br /><br />There are not only three categories....<br /><br />According to them there are fourteen.<br /><br />Mohammed is in the third division, Jesus is in the fifth -- so is Moses.<br /><br />In the sixth is Mahavira and Buddha.<br /><br />In the seventh, Kabir, Nanak, and in that way they went on.<br /><br />Names are engraved in marble.<br /><br /><br />And in the fourteenth there is only one man, their own master, who was not known outside Agra.<br /><br />All his following is centered in Agra.<br /><br />A few people have moved to different places, but basically, it is a one-city-oriented religion.<br /><br />They asked me what was my opinion about this map.<br /><br /><br />I said, "Who has made this map?"<br /><br />They said, "It is in our holy scripture. Our master himself has made this."<br /><br />I said, "Your master is right. He is in the fourteenth."<br /><br /><br />They looked at me, because before me they had shown that map to many people.<br /><br />Everybody disagreed because their masters were put in the fifth degree, somebody's master in the third degree, somebody's master at the most in the seventh.<br /><br />After the seventh, the other six planes are empty.<br /><br />The fourteenth, the highest reach of consciousness, has been achieved by their master.<br /><br />Naturally no Hindu will agree, no Mohammedan will agree, no Jaina will agree, no Jew, no Christian, no Buddhist. Nobody is going to agree.<br /><br />I was the first man to agree with what they said.<br /><br /><br />They said, "You are the only man who understands."<br /><br /><br /><br />I said, "Certainly, because I am on the fifteenth and I know your master is trying, making every effort, to enter into the fifteenth. I don't allow him! He tries hard, but I don't open the door. And as long as I am there on the fifteenth -- and there is no sixteenth, so I cannot go anywhere else -- your master has no chance."<br /><br /><br /><br />They said, "Fifteenth? But in our scripture there are only fourteen."<br /><br /><br />"I think that's natural. Your master knows about only fourteen because he has never entered the fifteenth."<br /><br /><br />They were very much shocked and angry.<br /><br />Their whole desire is that their master is accepted as the highest, then they are certainly the most significant people on the earth, following the greatest master.<br /><br />And the master was also on the same trip because in his own writing, which nobody reads except his own disciples -- and they are not many, but they are very rich people....<br /><br /><br />They showed me their scripture.<br /><br />He has written with his own hand the names of Gautam Buddha and Jesus and Kabir on lower steps, and his own name he has written on the highest.<br /><br />That very stupidity shows that he is not even on the lowest, the first floor.<br /><br />He does not know anything about enlightenment.<br /><br /><br />He may have been a learned scholar.<br /><br />That seems to be a possibility, because he writes well.<br /><br />But he is writing everything as a parrot, repeating from old Indian scriptures.<br /><br />There is not a single statement which is original.<br /><br /><br />I asked them, "Show me something that is original. A man who has reached to the highest plane of consciousness must say something which nobody has said, because nobody has reached to that plane. Show me something. Because all that is written in it has been said by people who are just on the third, fourth, fifth.... What is your master's own statement? What is his testimony?"<br /><br /><br />They could not find a single statement in their whole book which was not stolen.<br /><br />But this thing goes on and on.</span></div>

Action-Reaction "The Basics Of Karma Theory" Questioned<br /><br /><br />The popular Karma Theory postulates that you will get the result as per your action done i.e. reaction is the result of action done.<br /><br />In a sense this exactly in conformity with Newt<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">on's Law of Action.<br /><br />But in nature the action (cause) and reaction (effect) form a continuum.<br /><br />They can never be separated in time.<br /><br />The reaction starts immediately after the action gets started. In fact the result/effect/reaction starts accumulating immediately when the action get started(without being aware that the effect is getting accumulated), but we perceive the result in the end as we remain concentrated on action.<br /><br />And as soon as our concentration/awareness from the action comes to naught we perceive the result which was already getting accumulated. The result just get revealed in the end because the awareness towards the action comes to naught.<br /><br />Hence, there cannot be any gap between happening of cause and its effect.<br /><br />Then how is it possible that our past karmas affect our present birth i.e. a long gap of time between cause(action) and effect(reaction)?<br /><br />Somehow I think total misunderstanding of the Kerma Theory ( the concept of "action and reaction or cause and effect" ) has happened.<br /><br />What do you say ?????????????????</span></div>

Especially those hurts which contain the tendency to be getting carried forward.<br /><br />But if one becomes aware of this factual position perhaps the chances/probabilities of getting to the core of understanding which is in the concept of NOW, become bright.<br /><br />Perhaps all the Masters/Gurus do nothing other than making the seekers/disciples to understand the illusory nature of the EGO which is perhaps the single point goal of the whole spirituality.</span><br />

Nothing is outside body for far as mind is concerned as mind is the conduit/tool through which everything has been expressed till date either in spoken or written words.

<br />
ARE YOU AWARE OF OWN YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM ???<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The brain is your hardware which perhaps comes only loaded with BIOS and later on operating system is loaded by the society by various means without you being aware as you learn by imitation only and unknowingly the operating system gets loaded and is never displayed but acts from the background (sansakaras--subconsciousness) for the whole life. <br />
<br />
Although your operating system is being updated regularly but not in a systematic way as should have been as you are unaware of its loading and updating.<br />
<br />
This is in contrast to computer where the operating is updated in a systematic way unlike ours.<br />
<br />
The basis of operating system of ours and the computer both is same i.e. LOGIC.<br />
<br />
So far as Anti-Virus software and other System tools like clean up, de-fragmentation software, etc. are concerned they are built in with operating system itself......no need to load from outside...although they are working, but not with full strength due to lack of your awareness..... only they require full activation i.e. you have to just come to know this fact ..that is all.<br />
<br />
All the concepts/beliefs/ideas you have are nothing but data/impressions from outside you ...either others have put or you on your own have put...some are parts of your sub-conscious also (part of operating system--mainly put by others).<br />
<br />
Your "unawareness (not knowing)" about the above facts is the root cause of all your misunderstanding especially knowledge/idea of yourself... labeled as Maya, Misunderstanding, Ignorance, etc.<br />
<br />
If somehow (by outside input only) once you become aware of this fact all the system tools will start operating in full strength and there will be no scope of Maya, Misunderstanding, Ignorance..as they are their due to our unawareness.<br />
<br />
There may be a great role of biology too...but that is not in our control, hence not discussed.<br />
<br />
But recent studies indicate that biology (genes) cannot be treated/ taken/ considered in isolation to environmental factors.<br />
<br />
The above fact may help in arousal of DESIRE of "forgetting/ overcoming/ clearing/ unburdening" of all those concepts and beliefs (collectively known as samsakaras) which appear to be true because of your conditioning which is going on continuously from the very childhood without you being aware, when you had no option but to have those. <br />
<br />
But once the seed/desire (although an imaginary one) is sown which in my opinion will act as the defragmentation and the anti-virus programmes and will finally be able to clean up the misunderstandings which appears to be existing because of not being aware of the purpose behind creation (was conceived by the conceiver) of all sorts of beliefs, faiths, concepts, ideas, imaginations, etc.<br />

Perhaps nothing is wrong with you right now.
How ?? let us see.
Whether right or wrong everything is of mind only.
The mind, if there is any, is never/hardly interested in facts.
It is always interested in something unknown and unknowable i.e. imaginations, dreams, ideas, concepts(with attachment), etc.
And such things (imaginations, dreams, etc.) are bound to continue as there is no way out from it too because this is the best/only exercise for the billions of idle neurons we have (it is said we don't even use 1% of our brain's capacity).
In the unknown generally the scientists (intelligent people) are interested so that a part of unknown can be brought under the purview of known.
While the rest (majority 99.99% of the so called civilised) whose basic needs have been fulfilled/secured are interested in unknowable (fictions/ imaginations/ideas like God, Soul, Enlightenment, Nirvana, etc.) with the help of the so called religions/spirituality due to a no. known/unknown factors (perhaps none of these factors is in anyone's control) continuously working.
And it will continue so till the happening of questioning of one's own actions (existential questions).
And the illusory mind is perfectly doing its assigned duty and in turn is helping in neurons' exercise.
Nothing can happen other than what is happening through you right now.
Hence nothing is wrong with you in any respect as body and mind both are perfectly in their own natural state."><img alt="" class="img" height="178px" src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/s320x320/377152_230086790404007_100002080639908_505045_535744865_n.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; display: block; margin-bottom: 3px; margin-left: 3px; margin-right: 3px; margin-top: 3px; max-width: 300px;" width="284px" /></a></div>

This word is a misnomer. This gives an impression that there is some one who is going to realise something else...i.e. subject is going to realise an object. But this is far from the truth.
The self-realisation from different perspective means
""""knowing/realising the existential facts with full clarity that we are not only body-mind, but body-mind is included in us---we are whole""
or
"""Everything is happening on its own effortlessly, if at all there is anything happening"""
or
"""No one is doer(controller)----Doing is there , but doer is not - Buddha""".
But this "knowledge/knowing/understanding" must be getting reflected in that person's (realised) actions and should be felt by others too, otherwise understand that the mind is projecting pseudo-realisation and fooling the person concerned.
In a sense yes this is a process as this is a mental process because thinking is involved in initial stage.
But when """intelligence"" comes into play (which hardly comes into play) it starts happening/revealing automatically effortlessly.
Hence there is no step-by-step realisation. It happens suddenly as everything depends upon the intelligence.
What happens is that he/she is able to see everything(facts of life) "AS IT IS" without thoughts coming in between as filter happening like now.
It is easy as well as difficult both.
From the perspective of doing (yoga,meditation,etc.methods, ways...) in which knowledge of DOERSHIP has to be there, it is difficult.
But from the perspective of NON-DOERSHIP understanding (acceptance, non-resistance, etc.) , it is very simple.
Choice is yours in doership mode."><img alt="" class="img" height="202px" src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/s320x320/406393_225957690816917_100002080639908_495939_1733819185_n.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; display: block; margin-bottom: 3px; margin-left: 3px; margin-right: 3px; margin-top: 3px; max-width: 300px;" width="200px" /></a></div>

<br />
Can You Do Anything In The Moment Otherwise than What Is Happening Through You ?<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Is it not true that for,<br />
<br />
whatever is happening through you in this moment'<br />
<br />
there are a no of factors responsible (internal-inside body and external-outside body) ; some are known, but mostly unknown<br />
<br />
and<br />
<br />
perhaps none of them is in your control "in the moment" (as before you think the moment is gone--the moment can never be comprehended/caught by the brain-mind mechanism) ????<br />
<br />
<br />
Hence there is no chance/possibility of doing anything by so called you otherwise than what is being done or happening through the so called your body-mind instrument.<br />
<br />
<br />
Whatever you think you can do (thinking included) even in the name of so called holy business called spirituality/religion is nothing but all mind game, that too "happening on its own and consuming the vital energy produced by your body".<br />
<br />
<br />
Basically the mind the illusory servant which is made up of outside stuff (impressions of experiences) which only appears to be existing, is getting entertained or by all sorts of mental/physical gymnastics (either internally or externally) and is continuing its illusory existence .<br />
<br />
<br />
In the field of spirituality or worldly affairs the results/expressions of all this mental or physical gymnastics have been given beautiful names like contentment, happiness, enlightenment, bliss, peace, calmness, self-consciousness, like that.<br />
<br />
<br />
But the fact remains that you are not the doer as your existence itself is questionable whether you know or not, that does not matter.<br />
<br />
Knowing/realising this very eternal/natural fact requires enquiry.<br />
<br />
Hence logically it (the factual position) can be safely inferred that perhaps:<br />
<br />
"EVERYTHING, IF THERE IS ANYTHING, IS HAPPENING EFFORTLESSLY ON ITS OWN i.e. NOTHING IS IN ANYBODY'S CONTROL IF THERE IS ANYBODY ".<br />
<br />
All Masters including Krishna in Gita are in agreement of this fact.<br />
<br />
But to understand them (Masters sayings) you have to come out of beliefs/ conditioning.<br />
<br />
<br />
Hence the practice of <br />
<br />
"ACCEPTANCE OF WHATEVER IS AT A GIVEN MOMENT"<br />
<br />
appears to be the most appropriate among all doings/methods/ways/practices<br />
<br />
"if at all you can do (so long as the understanding of the above fact has not happened)" ,<br />
<br />
because of the fact that<br />
<br />
this is the least tiresome (unnecessarily consuming the body's energy) among all mental and physical gymnastics.<br />
<br />
<br />

In mathematical terms my view on this is as under:
1. The consciousness is directly proportional to the amount of activity (flow of impulses/information) going on in the nervous system.
In a sense if we think that we are consciousness, then we are nothing but flow of measurable impulses in nervous system at subtle level and nervous system itself at gross level.
The consciousness is thus a byproduct of various activities going on inside the body and its quantity can be measured.
In a certain body if the amount of consciousness exceeds or goes beyond a certain level at a certain moment i.e. beyond threshold limit, the body becomes aware of itself. For example when we awake in the morning , when someone comes out of comatose state, when someone becomes aware of him/her-self after the effects of the drug/alcohol/goes away...etc.etc..
2. The consciousness is also directly proportional to the amount and level of smooth flow of energy in the body.
If the level of flow of energy is high in the energy body without any obstruction, then the level/amount of consciousness is also high which in turn gives rise to what is known as heightened level of awareness/alertness as the alertness/ awareness is again directly proportional to level of consciousness.

Further it means all the inanimate can listen, speak, think, see, have all types of feeling including touch and taste too.
By this fats many phenomena of the nature or in our life can be understood with clarity. For example the significance of Holy places.
Perhaps the only thing could be that the sense organs are not so separated as is the case with the animals.
Now correlate with the scientific discovery which says that "The functions of the sense organs are inter-changeable".
It means we can listen with the eyes, see with the ears, have the feeling of touch with eyes, etc.
It has been said in scriptures and proved by the science too that the eyes are the instrument with the help of which we see maximum i.e. with other sense organs also we see but the quantity is very less compared to the eyes. Similar is the case with other sense organs.
Sony manufactured a walk-man a long before the so called earphones of which are put on the jaw portion of the face not in the ear and you can listen to the music very well without using your ears."><img alt="" class="img" height="159px" src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/s320x320/380007_214297781982908_100002080639908_463142_790697294_n.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; display: block; margin-bottom: 3px; margin-left: 3px; margin-right: 3px; margin-top: 3px; max-width: 300px;" width="232px" /></a></div>

---Nisarga Raman
1. What is Karma ?
Karma is neither a theory nor an unfounded concept.
It is a concept representing the actual state of affairs felt/realised in a certain state of a human consciousness.
That realisation is "EVERYTHING IS JUST HAPPENING ON ITS OWN EFFORTLESSLY."--This is the state in which everything is including Karma Yogi.
Let me explain.
What is the karma of a tree?
What is the karma of the rock?
What is the karma of sun?
What is the karma of Earth?
What is the karma of other stellar bodies in the universe?
What is the karma of water?
What is the karma of fire?
What is the karma of space?
What is the karma of heart,kidney,lung,glands,etc. internal body parts?
What is the karma of soil?
What is the karma of chair,table,car,airplane,etc. all man made things?
What is the karma of all the creatures?
What is the karma of bacteria in our gut system and on our skin?
What is the karma of brain?
What is the karma of our motor organs?
What is the karma of mind,ego,desires and all related phenomenon?
Does the above list not cover whole of the universe except ""the awareness presence or our understanding""?
Can any one of them (whether man made or naturally occurring) go against their "nature or swabhav" (the duty assigned to them). Here nature means inherent qualities in relation to inside or outside of it and the word swabhav is true representative of the qualities. The duty assigned means the purpose for which they are made.
Is any of the above doing its assigned duty with a feeling of doership?
Hence Karma means the duty assigned and being done without a feeling of doership.
The above facts clearly show that karma, if at all it is construed as action, is a happening in which the question of expectation of fruits does not arise at all as there is no feeling of doership there in any of the cases listed above.
If the above facts somehow is felt/realised/understood by just being """AWARE of what is happening""" does one not come to realise that "EVERYTHING IS JUST HAPPENING."?
2. Karma Related Phenomena
The karma theory is applicable in case of ignorant only where feeling/knowledge of doership is present there.
This does not apply on enlightened ones as there is no question of doing on their part i.e. they have known that no one is doer.
There are a no of thoughts/desires continuously "appearing/coming/welling up" in the mind, but most of them remain unfulfilled.
There are two types of desires.
First is essential desires i.e. need based (food, water, air and sleep) and other is non-essential i.e. luxurious/greed based.
The desires related to need once fulfilled, one gets/finds himself free from that desire.
But that is not the case with luxurious desires.
Again luxurious desires are of two types.
The desires related to outer things (except food, water, air and sleep) and can still be fulfilled depending upon the resources.
But the other one which is the ultimate luxurious desire related to religion/ God/ spirituality can never be fulfilled.
The fulfillment of a particular desire depends upon fulfillment of a no. of factors/ favourable circumstances.
But most of them (factors) are either unknown (hence not in our control) and even if they are known most of them are not in our control.
But once a desire wells up in the mind an amount of energy is consumed for its creation.
It remains in a corner of mind (assumption) as impression so long as it is not fulfilled in totality.
Its impression gets annihilated only when it is fulfilled in totality.
As most of them remain unfulfilled they get stuck in the energy body and are known as knots or granthies in yogic language (bandhan).
This is called being entangled in karma (Karmo ka bandhan).
These knots are being regularly produced (except in deep sleep sate) due to our unawareness to the happening of these things inside.
They are not produced in case of enlightened ones as they are fully aware/alert.
Prarabdha is such accumulated bandhans (granthies) energy before happening of their enlightenment .
So they have to be got cleared of those granthies but feeling of doership has gone in them.
Hence they suffer as per our point of view.
Hence in my view the explanation of the karma theory in common parlance is quite a misunderstood/mis-interpretated explanation.
I request you all to correlate the above with various statements of Masters and suggest improvement."></a></div>

In my view perhaps so long as we have the knowledge/feeling of separateness the tendency of being judgmental can never be avoided, at the most it can be suppressed which is worse than getting it expressed.
The state of non-judgmental happens when the knowledge/feeling of separateness i.e. power to discriminate vanishes.
This (non-judgmental) cannot be practiced.
