This text is a introduction to karma, aiming to demystify Hindu concepts and helps to "reprogramme the soul". It shows how karma is a law of consequence, not of moral retribution, and a philosophy that harmonizes fatalism and freedom, and engenders a greater sense of responsibility.

Review

Karma is a concept which is often misunderstood in the West. "It is not about fate, fatalism or destiny" explains Dr. Jonn Mumford, nor has it anything to do with "concepts of God's judgement, punishment, pain or penalty. This is not an "eye for an eye; tooth for a tooth" creed but a holistic doctrine that synthesises human beings and cosmic law. "Karma gives us a reason for everything and everything for a reason. Karma, as a philosophy maintains hope in the midst of hopelessness and provides us with the courage to continue our personal evolution." Dr. Jonn Mumford is a master of Eastern disciplines. He is a direct disciple of Yogarishi Dr Swami Gitananda of South India,and Paramhansa Swami Satyananda Saraswati of Bihar, India, by whom he was initiated in 1973. A renowned authority on Tantra and yoga, a physician and lecturer, Dr. Mumford is eminently qualified to disseminate the complexities of Karma. And he does so, clearly and simply in the 12 easy-to-read chapters of the Karma Manual. Within them you'll discover the different types of Karma, the concepts of action and reaction, duty and reincarnation and the wealth and depth of Karmic law. At the end of each chapter there's a "Karma Processing Factory" that is a practical exercise to encourage release and transformation; and the final chapter is a nine-day programme designed to cleanse your mind, body and spirit of negative forces. You'll also find a comprehensive glossary and a short but useful bibliography. Overall, the Karma Manual is contemporary and relevant and an essential guide for the Western student. --Lucas LoBlack
