   It's all about the karma, David.   
      
   If you want to burn up a lot of karma in a short amount of time, you   
   should try meditating surrounded by five fires in the middle of summer.   
      
   However, the most beneficial tapas of all and highly recommended for   
   householders is the tapas of "maouni" - keeping absolute silence, even   
   in the face of verbal abuse.

   great learned men call sanyasa. And giving up the results of all   
   activities is what the wise call yoga." - BG: 18.2
