Samskaras: The Invisible Scripts Running Your Life How Ancient Karma Shapes Your Personality, Your Patterns, and Your Path to Freedom Have you ever caught yourself repeating the same pattern - in relationships, in work, in the way you handle conflict - and wondered, why do I keep doing this? According to the sages of Advaita Vedanta , the answer isn't in your childhood (though that's part of it).

It's in your samskaras - karmic impressions that predate your current body by lifetimes. Samskaras are the grooves worn into your consciousness by repeated action.

Your samskaras are those channels.
