Guest guest Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 The dharamsastras are so ardent to present their retaliatory system that they pay little attention to another pressing question, viz. the technique by which karma is stored and rebirth occurs. Patanjali's yoga system teaches that each intentional act creates a karmic residue which will confirm either to dharma or adharma, Each residue has various samskara will produce nemerous results including two types of vasna. While one sort of vasna stores the memory of act, the other produces kleshas [afflictions]. These usually erroneous conceptions cause people to remain in bondage to their karmas by spurring them to create yet further karmic residue. Even the memory of a partial incarnation can fasten you more firmly to error if you cannot digest the experience you had therein-- which is why nature ordinarily will not permit you to remember your past lives until you are in no danger of being overwhelmed by them. When a person dies her jiva [ the sum of her unactivated karmic residues and their attached samskara ans vasnas gathered togther within her awareness field prepares for rebirth.The residue determines jati [the kind of body animal or human] ayus and the varities of bhoga [pleasures or pain] that the new body will enjoy during its lifetime as each residue matures to give its fruit. The nature of karmic fruit depends substantially on how we use ahamkara to identify with four actions which depends in turn on the relative balance of the three gunas in our personality. Until a human can completely self identify with absolute purusha, his or her human awareness is itself a substance a form of matter that possess gunas.
