गवाक्षात्समीरो यथाऽऽयाति गेहूं, तडागं च तोयप्रवाहः प्रणाल्याः । गलद्वारतो भोजनाद्यं पिचण्डं, तथात्मानमाशु प्रमादैश्च कर्म ॥५२॥
Meaning: Just as the air enters the house through a ventilator or a window, just as water flows into the lake through a waterpipe or a tunnel, just as water and food reach the belly through the oesophagus so also Karmic Influx constantly flows into the Soul through carelessness which is manifested in the form of haughtiness, sensual pleasures, passions, sleep and irreligious talk. A candidate for emancipation should once for all stop carelessness if he wants to ward off the Karmas. (52)
