keep your bhaav ready. And the rest is in the hands of
vyavasthit.
You should not allow any new bhaav to arise. The Atma
(the Self) does not have any! Since you attained the Self, Your
bhaavkarma (charging karma) ceases. These are your previous
bhaav, those which we call past (bhoot) bhaav. When the
unfolding of karma from the past (bhoot bhaav) occurs, the
deed gets done, and that is what we deal with. We do not do
bhaav for the future (bhaavi bhaav). The present bhaav is our
swabhav (I am pure Soul)! Indriya-gnan (knowledge mediated
through the senses) gives rise to bhavnas and Gnan beyond the
senses does not give rise to any bhavnas; the Shuddhatma
does not give rise to bhavna.
Bhaav Itself Is the Main Evidence
In the state of ignorance, the self is in the form of bhaav;
it is bhaav-atma. And in the state of Gnan it is a Gnan-Atma.
The bhaav-atma only has the control over bhaav, and that is
all it uses. It does nothing else. All the bhaavs that are done go
into Nature. Then Nature, mixing with the pudgal (body-
complex), yields its results. This is a very subtle science. If you
have one bad thought, the external parmanus (subatomic
particles), instantly create an account and join with the internal
parmanus, and settle in. Once that karmic account (hisaab) is
established, it will issue its fruit and depart. They will not go
away just like that. The Atma does not do anything in all this.
And there is no God out there to come and bring you the fruit.
It is vyavasthit shakti (scientific circumstantial evidences) that
looks after things for you. In all this, the Self (Atma) does not
do anything. It does not eat, it does not drink, it does not even
experience pleasure of any kind; it only is the ‘doer’ of bhaav.
There is no problem if the self becomes the ‘doer’ of the ‘nature
of the Self’ (swabhav). But because it has become the ‘doer’
of that which is beyond its realm (vibhav-attribute that is not of
