The ego is the ‘ignorant’ proclamation of “I did”, where one is not the ‘doer’. And because of the ego, there is bondage of karma, bondage of body, bondage of mind, and bondage of speech. Any bondage of the non-Self complex (pudgal) is attributed to the ego. To worship the Soul (Atma) and the absolute Soul (Parmatma) as being separate, is the way of the worldly, ‘relative’ religions. And to worship the Atma and Parmatma as one (not separate), is the religion that transcends beyond the world (alaukik); and from the ‘real’ religion comes Moksha! In the real religion, there is no merit karma (punya) or demerit karma (sin; paap); there is no ‘doership’ of anything at all! One becomes ‘certified’ for moksha, when one’s worldly pleasures and happiness become a heavy load of pain and suffering! The Gnani Purush gives one moksha, because the Gnani Purush is the ultimate liberator. [12] Arrangement of Vyavasthit The regulation of the universe happens naturally and on its own. The ‘Akram Gnani’ calls it “vyavasthit shakti or scientific circumstantial evidence”. This “scientific circumstantial evidence” has no control over the six eternal elements in the universe. All the elements are independent; they do not recognize each other, they do not obey each other even though one of them the element of the Self (chetan), is the Parmatma itself!!! If surrender and ‘selfless service’ went hand in hand, that would be excellent. But the result of service is merit karma, and not moksha. Yes, if there is Self-realization, there is no ‘doership’ and therefore no bondage of karma. The world is replete with bloodshed, cruelty, violence, fighting, massacres and the agonizing outcome of world wars. 30
