The

impure impulses bind you to the wheel of Samsara (worldly existence)

and tie you down to this earth. The giant tree called mind has two

seeds: Vasana (impulses) and Prana (life breath). The seed grows in to

the tree, the tree yields the seed. The Prana moves because of the

Vasanas. The Vasanas operate because of the Prana. But if beneficent

Vasanas are encouraged, they will not bind the mind. They are like

seeds that are fried, which will not sprout. These Vasanas are

characterised by such activities as the association with holy persons,

reverence for the guru, charity, fortitude, love, patience, truth,

courage, sense control, etc.
