Bonding of Karma (Bandha)
141
lie is also Adhyavasāna. Adhyavasāna of killing leads to bonding with inauspicious Karma and Adhyavasāna of protecting leads to bonding with auspicious Karma. In the same way, Adhyavasāna of telling a lie leads to bonding with inauspicious Karma and Adhyavasāna of not telling a lie leads to bonding with auspicious Karma.
Similarly, one can say that Adhyavasāna of stealing or Adhyavasāna of non-celibacy or Adhyavasāna of possessiveness leads to bonding with inauspicious Karma; and Adhyavasāna of non-stealing, Adhyavasāna of celibacy, or Adhyavasāna of nonpossessiveness leads to bonding with auspicious Karma.
In short, any desire of controlling or manipulating others in auspicious or inauspicious way is Adhyavasāna and leads to auspicious or inauspicious Kārmika bonding.
These stanzas may be useful in various ways in a householder's day-to-day life also. For example, from these stanzas one may infer that if a man has illicit intention regarding another woman and even if that woman is not affected and is unaware about it, then also the sinful bonding takes place to that man. Similarly, if a woman has illicit intention regarding another man and even if that man is not affected and is unaware about it, then also the sinful bonding takes place to that woman. Further, from stanzas 255 and 256 one can also learn to be fearless: One can learn that his life depends on his thoughts, feelings, and actions (present as well as past); others cannot harm, the harm happens in accordance with one's own present or past deeds (Karma).
