Kammam cha padilehae-to make an effort to shed karmas after knowing completely their form and effects.
and Glo
There are five primary causes of karmic bondage-(1) mithyatva (false perception or belief), (2) avirati (attachment), (3) pramad (stupor), (4) kashaya (passions), (5) yoga (affiliation). One should ponder over the origin of these karmas. Kshan means kshanan or violence; it also conveys that the cause of karmas is violence and cause of violence is karma. Dohim antehim-means two ends, which here means attachment and aversion. One should properly know all these.
Adissamane-not visible or not influenced; every being is under the influence of attachment and aversion, but a vitaraga (detached) is invisible to (not influenced by) attachment and aversion.
Logasannam-worldly awareness; the four or ten types of awareness like food (etc.). The three desires (eshana)-for wealth, progeny, and world-are also included in this. The attitude of hankering for indulgences is also called worldly awareness (involvement).
