keep your bhaav ready. And the rest is in the hands of vyavasthit.
You should not allow any new bhaav to arise. The Atma (the Self) does not have any! Since you attained the Self, Your bhaavkarma (charging karma) ceases. These are your previous bhaav, those which we call past (bhoot) bhaav. When the unfolding of karma from the past (bhoot bhaav) occurs, the deed gets done, and that is what we deal with. We do not do bhaav for the future (bhaavi bhaav). The present bhaav is our swabhav (I am pure Soul)! Indriya-gnan (knowledge mediated through the senses) gives rise to bhavnas and Gnan beyond the senses does not give rise to any bhavnas; the Shuddhatma does not give rise to bhavna.
Bhaav Itself Is the Main Evidence
In the state of ignorance, the self is in the form of bhaav; it is bhaav-atma. And in the state of Gnan it is a Gnan-Atma. The bhaav-atma only has the control over bhaav, and that is all it uses. It does nothing else. All the bhaavs that are done go into Nature. Then Nature, mixing with the pudgal (bodycomplex), yields its results. This is a very subtle science. If you have one bad thought, the external parmanus (subatomic particles), instantly create an account and join with the internal parmanus, and settle in. Once that karmic account (hisaab) is established, it will issue its fruit and depart. They will not go away just like that. The Atma does not do anything in all this. And there is no God out there to come and bring you the fruit. It is vyavasthit shakti (scientific circumstantial evidences) that looks after things for you. In all this, the Self (Atma) does not do anything. It does not eat, it does not drink, it does not even experience pleasure of any kind; it only is the 'doer' of bhaav. There is no problem if the self becomes the 'doer' of the 'nature of the Self' (swabhav). But because it has become the 'doer' of that which is beyond its realm (vibhav-attribute that is not of
