TRIMARGA
According to Hindu tradition, there are actually three ways (marga) to reach moksha (liberation), which is called the tri-marga
• Jnana marga • Bhakti marga • Karma marga
Jnana marga is the way of Brahmins, supra-mental intelligence (buddhi) and integral understanding.
Bhakti marga is the way of kshatriyas, devotion, love, honor, intelligence of the heart, imitation of higher values.
Karma marga is the way of Vaishyas, of action, of acceptance as such of the principles stated by the jnanins (Brahmins) and conveyed by the Bhaktis (Kshatriyas). The sense of action, within the framework of the religious structuring of society has thus become that of ritual action (cf. the laws of Manu). Total abandonment in action is also anagami producer.
But each of the paths which is carried to completion leads to the realization of the other two, having its own quality to reduce to nothing the agami karma: vision, listening, practice, to go towards Knowledge, Love and righteous Action.
CONCLUSION
Whether the Indian notion of karma is a reality or a pure fiction, the fact remains that the capacity to develop an awareness free from all influence (external or internal) but without rejection, independently of the theory of karma and samsara (why not), is a protection against the increasingly polluting invasion of modern modes of communication, (not forgetting psychotronic, electromagnetic, electroaccoustic evolving experiences...), and this is what karma vidhya and karmic meditation can be of precious help.
