(Yoga Journal)
Karma yoga is the path of service. Based on the idea that your current experiences are created by your past actions, and that future experiences will be influenced by the choices you make today, karma yoga inspires practitioners to selflessly dedicate their energies to serving others, thereby creating a future, and a future life, with more freedom, choices, and love. As explored by writer Alan Reder, most major religions emphasize the importance of service to others. However, he writes, "In yoga, service is not just a spiritual obligation or the righteous thing to do. It is also a path to self-realization."
