same ammonia when come in contact with water particles forms ammonium hydroxide, a common detergent we use in our house. In a similar way, once Atma is polluted with Karma, it changes its physical body and this is thus an endless process.
INGREDIENTS FOR KARMA:
In this universe when we are exposed with basic ingredients producing an Atma-Karma complex then this motivation or illusion or bondage leaves behind "Sanskar", the impression or the imprint. This process goes on until Atma is free from this bondage. It is an endless process like the chemical reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen to produce ammonia. This ammonia under certain conditions may again be dissociated into nitrogen and hydrogen. This nitrogen is again available for reaction with hydrogen or other chemicals. With oxygen forms nitrogen oxides. This is illustrated in FIGURE 5.
In this example, ammonia or the bondage between nitrogen and hydrogen is formed under certain conditions. In an Earth's atmosphere, this bondage is by means of lightning and in the laboratory by means of high temperature and pressure. But conditions of dissociation are not necessary to be the same as the production of
