Guest guest Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 Great sages, out of great sympathy for their fellowmen, laid down rules, regulations, limits and directions for daily life and conduct, so that man's mind may not turn against him, but may turn towards the ideals of Sathya (Truth), Dharma (Righteousness), Shanti (Peace) and Prema (Love). They declared that every act must be evaluated and approved only if it cleanses the emotions and passions, otherwise it has to be cast aside. Bhaavashuddhi (purification of mental disposition) is the fruit of Karma (action) and any act that befogs the Bhaava (thought process) or excites it into Rajas (passion) or demeans it into Thamas (inertia) has to be avoided.
