Unless we have some stored impressions in our mind about a
person, the so called 3 ego- raga, dvesha and abhinivesha , as far as that
person is concerned, can never be active at all times in the future.
After one action is performed, the impressions due to that
action is stored in chitta, retrieved as vasanas, then only, in all future
time, the vasanas propel/push one of the three - raga or dvesha or abhinivesha
towards that person and then action is undertaken.
Applying
this principal in that student case, the impression of the first action
(absuing the new student who had ranked 1st) results in impression about that
person in the earlier student’s heart.
Later
on, next day or whenever he sees the other student, the stored
impressions manifest as vasanas and only these vasanas ignite the
ego-DVESHA or HATRED for that new student and with that dvesha, the 1st
student’s all actions towards the new student, are influenced.
If there were no stored Impressions, manifesting as vasanas about that student, then will this student ever develop the hatred feeling towards the student? Never.
If there were no stored Impressions, manifesting as vasanas about that student, then will this student ever develop the hatred feeling towards the student? Never.
So,
it it Avidya -Kama-Karma for the first action (see the above flow for 1st
action) and thereafter, for all future actions, it is
Avidya-Vasana-Kama-Karma.The
main aim of all spiritual sadhana is to break this knot of samsara-
Avidya-Kama-Karma and to be free from this hrdaya granthi.
During
our entire life, we always carry with us, our subtle impressions- vasanas
in mainly 2 ways as under:-
-
Our impressions about our own selves, I am this, I am that, I am capable of
this, my main plus points are this, this and this, I can do this better
than others…. And such endless impressions about ourselves.
-
Our impression about all others in the society after our first action with them
has carried impressions to our chitta or, even if we have not acted in any way
with any person, our own impressions about ourselves are always matched
/ compared/evaluated in a subtle manner with a person with whom we might
not have acted and thus, with such a thought, we develop vasanas about that person.
For
example, we develop vasanas/ impression about a politician, a leader a public
figure with whom we have never come in touch. But whatever we know about that
person is judged/ evaluated with our own impressions about ourselves and
our heart of ego imagines what we would do in such a situation and with that comparison,
we pass a judgement about that person and such judgement stores
impressions about that person.
Vasanas and avidya exist together and the last thing to leave a meditator, a sadhaka, a devotee is his vasanas / impressions about himself and the world. Once all the vasanas within one’s mind lake (chitta) are removed, then, surely, at that very instance, one gets free of his AVIDYA.
