is the ego, which has been created through false impositions that
binds karma, and it is the ego that experiences the fruits of
karma. You are the pure Self and yet you claim that you are
Chandubhai. Claiming to something you are not, is called the
ego. This is the false imposition of the ego. Egoism is to usurp
someone else’s space and call it your own. When this ego leaves,
you can return to your own place, where there is no bondage.
Karma And Soul: Together Life After Life
Questioner: So is it possible for the soul to be free from
karma? When does that happen?
Dadashri: When no circumstance can cling and attach to
the Self, then not a single karma will cling or attach to him. No
karmas exist for the Absolute liberated Souls and such are
only to be found in the Siddhagati (domain of the liberated
souls).
One is subject to karma bondage only in the universe of
life; and this has been the case for time immemorial. Furthermore,
it is all scientific circumstantial evidence. All this has come about
as a result of the constant motion of elements. This gives rise to
illusion, which in turn gives rise to the ego in man.
Illusion itself is the identification with that which is not
real, the non-Self. Amidst all this illusion the Self is forgotten. So
there has never been a time that the soul has been free of karma.
By the time one meets a Gnani Purush, a considerable
weight of karma has been shed. In fact it is when his karmas
become lighter that he is able to meet a Gnani Purush. The
meeting of the two is also scientific, it happens when all the
scientific circumstantial evidences come together. Such a meeting
cannot occur through one’s own efforts. This meeting simply
happens and one’s work gets accomplished.
Karma is the coming together of circumstances, and its
nature is dissipation (to discharge).
