________________ The Self Realization permanent. The Soul under the influence of this action considers the not-self, as the Self and the Self as the not-self. The second is called the Charitra Mohaniya, the dispositions of the past life-aggressive passions (Kashaya) and mild passions (No-kashaya) which hinder the Soul from renouncing the world and which disturb and obstruct the Soul's abidance in its true nature. The first type of infatuating actions (Darshana Mohaniya karma) can be destroyed by the knowledge of the Soul's true nature, the second type of infatuating actions (Charitra Mohaniya karma) is destroyed by a spirit of non-attachment. Wrong understanding is Darshana Mohaniya karma. Its opposite is the right knowledge of the nature of the Self. Infatuating behaviour (Charitra Mohaniya Karma) results from attachment and its opposite is a spirit of complete non-attachment to the worldly objects. As darkness is dispelled by light, right knowledge of the nature of the Self and behaviour guided by a spirit of non-attachment are the sure remedies to remove the clouds of Darshana Mohinaya Karma disturbing the Soul's natural Self-equipoise. For, a right knowledge of the nature of the Self results from following the experienced advices of a true and enlightened Teacher. Only then these advices are appreciated and acted upon by the disciple. As a result the disciple sets his firm faith and love in his Master and consequently realises his true nature. When the disciple after a clear conviction of the true nature of the Self acts on the advice of his Master, his attachments to the world get removed and he strongly makes efforts for abiding in his true nature.
