Karma is generally understood as the cause and effect theory which states ‘what goes around, comes around’ or ‘do good to others, good things will come back to you; do bad to others, bad things will come back to you’. While there is nothing wrong with this understanding of Karma, Karma is much deeper than this.

Join Ram Vakkalanka for a deeper understanding of Karma and how the choices you did not make are governing your life!

In this course, we begin with exploring the different connotations of the word ‘Karma’ in the ancient texts of India. Understand how Karma and Reincarnation are the two foundational concepts upon which the phenomenal world – especially the human life – is built. And, move on to unravel the deeper layers of Karma and how it impacts your life.

What will you learn:

Please note that studying with Ram is not academic exercise but rather a spiritual journey. While the course is structured well, it is a good idea not to get attached to it as Ram is guided more by his intuition of the group energy in teaching.

About the Teacher: Ram Vakkalanka

Ram was born and brought up in India, steeped in the Vedic tradition of life.  Vedic Philosophies (such as Yoga, Vedanta, Tantra), Vedic Sciences (such as Vedic Astrology, Ayurveda) and Vedic practices (such as Meditation, Nada Yoga, Mantras, Mudras, Yantras) form the core of his teachings. Ram shares the authentic wisdom of the Rishis from the ancient texts of India in an easily-understandable language, with a sense of humour. He simplifies – but doesn’t water down – even the most complicated concepts of Vedic and Tantric philosophies, making them easily accessible to everyone. Ram has a very informal and touching style of teaching and effortlessly blends philosophy, story-telling, relevant examples and humour.
