EFFORT

               Human Effort is praised to be the most important of any of the qualities that man should possess and in all ancient indian scriptures, it is explicitly stated that if effort is not exercised by using the will power of a human mind, that mind would eternally be living in this material world stuck forever in the wheel of maya. The will power of humans is the greatest gift of the supreme consciousness and if the mind to which it is given is not using it, then the vasanas (the tendencies leftover from the previous incarnations and from the in-between life in other planes) take over our life and it would be lived in the same way or worser, accumulating karmas for a million more incarnations or it can spill over into this life itself, giving you instant retributions for the things you have thought or done in the present life itself.

 An individual is only his action. In creation, there is not even a little difference between an individual and his action. an individual has only the quality of action. These two are non-different like ice and coldness,  Only this consciousness expands within through the delusions of creation of the nature of words (and their significations) such as, knowledge derived from memory (or vasana), desire, mind, action and imagination.

 At the beginning of creation, there is no karma or previous action which exists here for anyone. All the individual souls arrive without cause from the supreme Abode (or Absolute Reality). Then, their own actions (or karman-s) become the cause of their pleasure and pain. As Brahma (The creator God) and others, who are of the nature of Brahman (The Absolute Reality), appear at the beginning of creation; so, other individual souls also appear by hundreds and thousands.

 But, those not born of a sattvika ( or virtuous) nature, who perceive their difference from Brahman and who having recognized this duality called unconscious (matter), are ignorant themselves, their birth along with karma is consequently observed at a future time. Unreality has been resorted to by them, who have become so of their own accord.
