VIII
A soul with attachment gets bonded with Karma, and the detached one gets liberation. This has been preached by omniscient lords. Therefore, do not have attachment with Karma.
(Translation of stanza 150)
The understanding of not having any desire of earning auspicious Karma is likely to lead to the attainment of enlightenment, and the actions of an enlightened being are likely to increase the level of acts related with charity, welfare, kindness, non-violence, etc. in the world, which in turn are likely to result in the advancement of peace, love, and harmony in the world.
(Taken from annotations of stanzas 151-154)
A SamyagDrşti knows the actions of body and mind as the actions of the soul's close neighbor, not as his own (soul's) actions. He, as a soul, does not become the owner or doer of the actions of his body and mind.
(Taken from annotations of stanza 166)
In reality, the actions of non-souls are not the actions of the soul. But the ownership of the actions of non-souls wrongly accepted by the soul becomes an erroneous act of the soul.
(Taken from annotations of stanza 167)
The President seriously participates in making and executing the budget of the nation. But as a person he knows that any negative or positive balance of the national budget does not affect his personal bank account. In the same way, a SamyagDrşti person takes care of his personal finance and other aspects but at the same time he knows that any loss or gain of the money is not going to make his real-self (Self or soul) richer or poorer.
(Taken from annotations of stanzas 177-178)
