ATMA-SIDDHI
The soul is not the doer of Karmas. Karmas do Karmas, or else the doing of Karmas is the nature of soul (i.e., the sould can never be rid of Karmas, and there is no Liberation).
72 आत्मा सदा असंग ने, करे प्रकृति बंध । अथवा ईश्वर प्रेरणा, तेथी जीव अबंध ॥७२॥ स्थादसंगः सदा जीवो बन्धो वा प्राकृतो भवेत् । .. वेस्वरप्रेरणा तत्र ततो जीवो न बन्धकः ॥७२॥
The soul being always separate (from Karmas), matter binds (Karmas to it); or God instigates (it to bind Karmas) and therefore the soul is unbound (for the bondage is not his but due to the desire of God).
73 माटे मोक्ष-उपायनो, कोइ न हेतु जणाय । कर्मतणुं कर्तापणुं, कां नहीं, कां नहीं जाय? ॥७३॥
ततः केनाऽपि हेतुना मोक्षोपायो न गम्यते । जीवे कर्मविधातृत्वं नास्त्यस्ति चेन्न नश्यताम् ? ॥७३॥
Thus it seems there is no reason for the means of Liberation. How and why the responsibility of Karmas does not disappear (then)?
