Karma marga
Tibetan Buddhist Encyclopedia is now 14 years old
Our Encyclopedia recently received a wonderful opportunity for a major renewal on its 14th birthday . After many years of growing our Encyclopedia had become bit slow and sometimes even decided not to answer when people knocked on the door.
A very big thank you and blessings to Dmytro Rudiy (rudiy.nl) for his great work in upgrading the server, website and all of the infrastructure and helping make TBE fast and reliable again for everyone!
We kindly ask our readers to help us cover the cost of this important upgrade and also help with the ongoing costs of keeping the Encyclopedia alive and freely available.

Karma marga is one of three paths to liberation (moksha) in Hinduism, according to the Bhagavad Gita. Also called karma yoga, it is the path of action without selfish motives. Someone following this path lives in harmony with his/her ethical duty, or dharma, and may tend to be socially active.
Doing good deeds is key to following this path, but the motivation is not any type of reward. This yogi does good works simply because it is right. The other two paths are jnana marga (path of knowledge) and bhakti marga (path of devotion).
Yogapedia explains Karma Marga
The different paths to liberation reflect the different talents and personalities of Hindus. Karma marga is for those who seek salvation through day-to-day tasks while living an ordinary life working and raising a family.
Marga is a Sanskrit word meaning “path,” “route” or “passage.” Karma is often translated as “action” or “work,” but the concept doesn't translate easily into English. The concept applies to action on several levels that results in positive or negative consequences for this life or the next life. The Hindu following karma marga can expect a freedom from suffering in the next life or even liberation – that is, an end to the cycle of reincarnation.
