14. The rightly inclined soul, whose belief in the right-faith is well-established due to subsidence of the falsehood promoting activities, even when destined to enjoy sensual pleasures due to the fruition of conduct deluding karma, and pleasurable yielding karma, remains detached from within and constantly reflecting upon their real karma-bonding nature, censures himself for doing so.
