ANNOTATION 155: Man performs actions (karma). Actions in themselves have no motives. They are performed for fulfilling certain aims. There are certain necessities of life, the fulfilling of which requires actions. It is one thing to act in order to fulfil certain necessities and it is quite another thing to search for a necessity in order to act. When the mind is full of attachment, we create artificial necessities. By this, our problems multiply. The actions of one who is free from attachment get reduced to bare necessities. Simultaneously, the bondages of kar ma particles which are caused by actions also subside.

seen the path. १५८. सं परिणाय मेहावी।
