All about Shiva Karma laws

We all know about karma and the 12 laws but very few except Lord Shiva devotees would know about these 7 laws of Shiv Karma that are said to help you achieve your highest form of existence, without sacrificing your domestic life! Scroll down to know these laws which may give your mind and heart the peace that you have been searching for.

2/8

Truth

This is the first law of Shiv Karma. As per this law, the followers of Lord Shiva must follow the path of truth, and justice and be true to people around them and themselves. Any religion or God has never welcomed dishonesty, and Lord Shiva devotees would back the thought that the truth always wins the war.

3/8

Knowledge

No single person can have knowledge of everything. Every person has some knowledge about different things instead. As per the law, the seed of knowledge is there in us all and we must find that. After finding that part in us, follows karma.

4/8

The illusion

The third law says that everything is an illusion. Irrespective of the kind of you are living and what your situation is, your happiness must not depend on materialistic things. If you do then happiness is an illusion in your case and once that materialistic thing goes, your happiness goes too. The third law of Shiva Karma asks believers not to attach their happiness to earthly objects.

5/8

Beyond happiness

In this self-obsessed world, all pay more attention to their happiness and not to the happiness of the people around them. Lord Shiva does not say that you should forget yourself because self-happiness is important but paying attention to the joy of others is equally important. As per the law of Shiva Karma, real happiness is beyond limits, and it could be felt only when we have found the seed of knowledge within us. And happiness comes from within.

6/8

Being formless

Sit and observe the person happy around you. It won’t be around materialistic possession after a while. The illusion of material comfort does not control the genuinely happy person. You put them in any situation and at any place; they’ll be the same calm and content in their mind. The fifth law suggests that you be like water, formless! Be flexible and work according to your surroundings.

7/8

Use your senses

If your heart is at peace and you walk the path of self-realisation, all your senses will come together and be in sync. When you are able to achieve this balance that is between your existence and enlightenment, the feeling you get shall be incomparable.

8/8

Enlightenment

After following all 6 laws above, the last one is the enlightenment that you shall achieve. It is the highest form of existence for a human. You get the proper understanding of reality and this can be achieved without letting go of your domestic life.
