In yoga, the purpose of meditation is linked to the law of karma – The belief that everything happens for a reason and that every action has a reaction.
your meditation practice will guide your mind towards the positive thinking that will attract joy into your life.
This article aims to describe one of the most famous universal rules and what it is. So read on!
What is karma?
The law of action and reaction teaches that doing good deeds attracts goodness to us and, conversely, that doing bad deeds attracts ill.
This is true for thoughts as well as deeds.
The reaction provoked by thought will be of the same nature and quality as the thought itself, so a negative thought attracts a negative reaction and a positive thought a positive reaction.
Today, we tend to believe that others are responsible for what happens to us, especially for the more challenging episodes.
We are quick to blame our parents, teachers, or society at large for our ills.
However, we could not be more wrong.
We fail to realize that our negative thoughts and emotions – fear of failure, resentment, anger, self-hatred – generate powerful, negative vibrations.
These attract negative energy that influences events, the people we meet, and even the diseases we get.
For example, dwelling on unhappy memories and worrying that painful things will happen again sets up a vibration of fear, which attracts fear and pain.
This is the law of karma.
You basically attract what you give out to the world and so if we want good things we must give good things, feel-good things and most importantly, believe in good things.
Being responsible for your life
Understanding the law of karma brings the realization that you are responsible for your own life.
You control what happens to you. You are the creator of your own destiny!
Just realizing this fact can change the way you look at life.
It is no use blaming others or outside events for the ills you suffer. The secret of happiness and pain rests in your hands – or rather, in your mind.
The universe brings you only and exactly those things that are on the same wavelength as your thoughts and feelings, the key to happiness is to pay attention to what you think and feel.
You are the architect of your own destiny.
So if you find yourself thinking a negative thought, try to correct it quickly with a more positive one

A habit of positive thinking
Whenever possible, think joyous, happy, and harmonious thoughts.
Yogis believe that these bring well-being to the mind and body. Practicing meditation is a good way to guide your mind towards positivity.
If you practice in the early morning, the effects remain throughout the day. Or you could repeat positive affirmations every day
Though the universe has many ways of acting,we are sure that it abides by this law.
So why not try to fully understand it and implement it to make our daily lives better?
I hope that you now have some idea of what karma is and you will go on to spread goodness into the world.
