Aptavani-8
the discharge, the very same instillation is done again, which then discharges. Now if he has been given this Gnan; what it says is that when he says, 'I am Chandubhai' and 'I am his uncle'; it all belongs to the previous instillation of life (pratishtha). However, because he has the Gnan today, the belief (shraddha), 'I am really Chandubhai’, has disappeared; therefore he does not do another instillation of life. Which is why this is called the blockage of influx of karma (samvar); no more binding of karma (bandh), and he constantly discharges karma (nirjara). What do you regard as binding of karma (bandh)?

He talks nicely to people, and tells them, ‘I will do this for you, do that for you, I will get all your work done.' and he takes a bribe from them of a thousand rupees. That which is doing all these things is, the relative nonSelf; the atma into which life was instilled (pratishthit atma). This was the planning (yojana), which has now materialized (rupak). Whatever he says, is an effect (rupak), even his encounter with the other person is an effect, and when he takes the thousand rupees, it is also an effect (rupak). The taking of the bribe; the inner intent (bhaav), all that, is decided for him, and that too he accepts it willingly. And later in his mind he has the inner intent - now he has not taken the Gnan – that 'I am taking all these bribes, but ultimately will it not be me who has to suffer the consequences? I should not be taking these bribes.' So the planning (yojana), to not take bribes, has been constructed in the atma that has been instilled with life (pratishthit atma) for the next life. Therefore, in the next life, he will not take bribes. Do you understand this blue print?
Now, there are many people who do not take bribes. A man's wife tells him, “All the people you studied with, all of them
