| Nov 3, 2018 at 4:28 | comment | added | Agamas Tantras | @Sakthi - The KARMAS are added depending on what kind of mindset you are having. If you work for Punya its Karma. you dont know any scriptures, but you do out of compassion and help the poor without your mind knowing Punya, and your mind is engaging in selfless action, then that becomes Karma Yoga. In your example it becomes Karma Yoga - elimination of both papa and punya. What am saying is truth. Reference- GITA says to engage in selfless action. PERIYA PURANA has 63 Naynmar stories and out of that 1 Nayanmar doesnt even know who is Shiva. He simply offered food for linga and he got darshan | |

| Dec 15, 2016 at 4:03 | comment | added | Vishal prabhu lawande | if Im attached to mental pleasure that charity gives that '..Yes ive done something great..im so generous...i made some 1 happy' etc etc.(because person is still acting with false ego that he is the doer) So in chapter 3(also chpt4) it is established that we should do our duties being unattached to any sort of results. We should do it as a offering to Lord Vishnu. Than such a activity wont result in rebirth. See BG 4.19,4.21 and 4.37 (2/2) | |
| Dec 15, 2016 at 3:56 | comment | added | Vishal prabhu lawande | BG does urge us to do Dharmic(righteous) acts and forbid from doing Adharmic activities. See BG 4.17. Also 'If man is not aware....'; I would say ignorance is not an excuse. just like if someone who cant read parks a car under no parking; he has to pay the fine; he cant get away with that. Also anything that is not done purely for satisfaction of Lord results in material entanglement. So if I offer food to poor even without considering the punya or paap. It will result in rebirth; (1/2) | |

| Dec 13, 2016 at 13:39 | comment | added | Pandya♦ | ok. I've revised answer to cover both case, it may clear the thing. | |
| Dec 13, 2016 at 13:15 | comment | added | Sakthi | Friend many people for example many leaders and even a man who not believes in god plants a tree for other life forms to be good and there is no punnya thinking but a action intended to other beings welfare | |
| Dec 13, 2016 at 13:10 | comment | added | Pandya♦ | By the way, it is not so easy to predict/determine whether one considers punyu or not! | |
| Dec 13, 2016 at 12:22 | comment | added | Sakthi | i am asking if a man who is not aware of any scriptures and is uneducated and does not knows about moksha but he shows affection towards others and helps them without considering punnya then will he attain moksha | |
