WHAT IS THE FIVEFOLD PATH?
The Fivefold Path is a guide for happy living:
1. Perform AGNIHOTRA for purification of the atmosphere which leads to automatic
purification of mind.
2. Practice DAAN (sharing of assets in a spirit of humility to reduce attachment to worldly
possessions).
3. Practice TAPA (becoming better managers of our energy expenditure by training the
body and mind to react to all circumstances in life with Total Love).
4. Perform KARMA (every action for self purification only and thus no expectations
which bind us to the material world).
5. Practice SWADHYAYA (Self-study) for liberation. Who am I? Why am I here? My
work on this planet is to learn to react with total LOVE with each opportunity given to me.
This is the Fivefold Path for happy living on the planet. By practicing the Fivefold Path
you become better members of your society, group, religion, community, etc.
