Square 19: Plane of Action (Karma-Loka) – Your Actions Shape Your Destiny

Square nineteen of your Leela journey introduces you to Karma-Loka, the Plane of Action. Situated within the Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura), Karma-Loka represents the powerful concept of karma—the principle that your choices, actions, and intentions profoundly shape your destiny.

What is Karma-Loka?

In Sanskrit, Karma means "action," and Loka means "realm" or "plane." Karma-Loka symbolizes the realm in which actions bear fruit, teaching you that every choice has consequences, guiding your life's direction. Your intentions, thoughts, and actions directly influence your future circumstances and spiritual evolution.

In the Leela game, Karma-Loka emphasizes personal accountability, ethical responsibility, and conscious decision-making as essential aspects of spiritual growth.
