The Difference Between Karma and Samsara

Karma and Samsara are two closely related concepts in Hinduism. Karma refers to the law of cause and effect, while Samsara refers to the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth.

Karma is the belief that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. This means that our good deeds will result in good things happening to us, while our bad deeds will result in bad things. Karma can also be considered a way of balancing the scales of justice. If we do something wrong, we will eventually have to pay for it; if we do something good, we will eventually be rewarded.

Samsara is the belief that we are all trapped in birth, death, and rebirth cycles. This means we will continue to be born, die, and be reborn until we achieve moksha or liberation. Moksha is the ultimate goal of Hinduism and the state of being free from the cycle of Samsara.

Karma and Samsara are two important concepts in Hinduism and are closely related. Karma is the law of cause and effect, while Samsara is the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. If we want to achieve moksha, we need to understand and live by the law of Karma.

 

About  Maetreyii Ma Nolan, Ph.D.

 

In addition to writing eight books, doing lecture tours, and maintaining an ashram in Northern California, Maetreyii Ma is a licensed Transpersonal Psychologist and an Acharya, or ordained yogic minister. Maetreyii Ma refers to herself as an “everyday mystic,” for good reason. Her talks are as practical as they are esoteric. She’s spent her adult life helping people understand, heal, and grow through love.

 

Since 1969, Maetreyii Ma has been a student of Shrii Shrii Anandamurti, affectionately known as Baba. In 1970 she began to have profound mystical experiences of the Divine and experience the inner presence of her Guru. Baba's inner presence brought a deep experience of the endless love and compassion of the Divine, perfect beauty and wisdom, and the Sadguru's unconditional love and overflowing grace.

The Baba Flow

 

Maetreyii Ma’s talks are based on a spiritual process called Baba Flow. The Baba flow is an intuitive flow of spiritual guidance and teachings from the deep inner essence, the one essential Source known by many names. In the Baba Talks, Maetreyii Ma, in a deep state of Bhava, or devotional absorption, opens to this Source and allows the teachings to flow through.
