at the time of our activities. The lesser the intensity of our passions, the less strong is the resulting effect of the Karma; the greater the intensity the stronger the resulting effect is. The tightness of the bondage of the karmas to the soul is categorized in four different kinds.
Loose Bondage(Ek thaniyo Ras): This is like a loose knot in a shoestring, which can easily be untied. The Karmas, which are attached loosely to the soul, can be easily shed off by simple a usterities & repentance.
Tight Bondage(Be thaniyo Ras): This kind of bondage needs some more effort to untie it. Similarly, the Karmas which are attached tightly to the soul, could be shed off with some effort like atonement.
Tighter Bondage(Tran thaniyo Ras): This kind of bondage needs even greater effort to untie it. Similarly the Karmas, which are attached tighter to the soul, could be shed off with special effort like greater austerities. Tightest Bondage(Char thaniyo Ras): This kind of bondage cannot be undone, no matter how hard you work at it. Similarly the Karmas which are attached so tight to the soul, cannot be shed off by any kind of effort but we have to bear their results for this Karma to be shed off.
