Commentary. Attachment and other impure thought-activities never appear in pure souls. Therefore a soul cannot have them without the influence of deluding Karmas in operation as an important auxiliary cause.

Commentary.
The statement that impure thought-activity is due to the soul itself as the primary cause and that the bondage of Karma in souls
