You are born on this earth-plane on account of
your Karmas (actions) done in previous births. This body and this condition of
mind are both the results of effects of past Karmas. What is Karma? A Vasana or
desire arises. Then you exert to possess the object. This is Karma. Thought itself
is the real Karma. Physical action is only its manifestation. Then you enjoy
the object. This is Bhoga. This Bhoga strengthens and fattens the Vasana. The
Chakra or wheel of Vasana,arma,
Bhoga, is ever revolving. Give up Bhoga. Practise renunciation, discrimination
and dispassion. Destroy the Vasanas by eradicating ignorance (Ajnana) through
Brahma-Jnana, the Knowledge of the Imperishable. Then alone the wheel which
binds a man to this Samsara will stop evolving.
Then alone you become an Atmavan or Knower of the Self.
