INHERITED PROPENSITIES |
|
|
| It would be the
reverse of what the Gita teaches if the inevitability of qualities resulting from Karma
moves us to contempt or cruelty towards others, instead of making us more charitable. The
self is, in one sense, not the real actor, but in another sense he is. The Gunas have
their roots in the body, lead the physical senses and the body, and hold the Spirit within
as a prisoner. The Spirit, however, can detach itself
and over come the qualities. For this, however, Jnana is essential. Jnana is not a thing
to be attained by mere study or meditation. It can be attained in a real and useful sense
only by self-control in thought and action. |
