अध्याय ९

II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

आणि सुटलिया सिंधुजळाचा लोटु I न.शके धरूं सैंधवाचा घांटु I तेविं सकळ कर्मां मीच शेवटु I तीं काय बांधिती मातें II 124 II
धूम्ररजांची पिंजरी I वाजतिया वायूतें जरी होकारी I कां सूर्यबिंबामाझारीं I आंधारें शिरे II 125 II
हें असो पर्वताचिये हृदयींचें I जेविं पर्जन्यधारास्तव न खोंचे I तेविं कर्मजात प्रकृतीचें I न लगे मज II 126 II
एऱ्हवीं इये प्रकृतिविकारीं I एकु मीचि असें अवधारीं I परि उदासीनाचिया परी I करीं ना करवीं II 127 II
जैसा दीपु ठेविला परिवरीं I कवणातें नियमी ना निवारी I आणि कवण कवणिये व्यापारीं I रहाटे  तेंहि नेणे II 128 II
तो जैसा कां साक्षीभूतु I गृहव्यापारप्रवृत्तिहेतू I तैसा भूतकर्मीं अनासक्तु I मी भूतीं असें II 129 II

"Just like no wall of salt can stop water movement of ocean, the Karma that ultimately merge into Me do not bind Me. If cage made of minor particles of smoke could resist a typhoon, if the darkness could enter the radiance of the Sun, then only the Karma can bind Me. Just like the rain showers cannot hit the core of the mountain, Karma by Prakruti do not affect Me. Prakruti provides the stage and the Gunas for action, while Karma is the play that unfolds on that stage. Though the non attached Me is the underlying support of all that the Prakruti manifests in name and form, the doership is not Mine, and neither I get it done. A lamp lighted in the house doesn't interfere in the activities unfolding in its light, neither stops anything from happening, does not object either. Just like it is neutral, yet becomes instrumental to the activities, I am, living in all beings, yet their Karma do not bind Me."
