Do not make chains your ornaments || Neem Candies

In vikarma (sinful action) you say, “I am already liberated and I don’t need any liberation.” In vikarma , the one who is in bondages is so deeply dishonest that he starts proclaiming his liberation and says, “I am already liberated. Who needs liberation? I am happy and I will work to get more happiness.”

So this entire cult of happiness—which is all pervasive, especially in the West—is the cult of vikarma , the cult of deep inner dishonesty. You decorate your bondages and start calling them your ornaments. Now there is no possibility of liberation because now bondage itself has been named as liberation.

You are deeply in an inner stress and yet you call yourself as blissful—the result of this can only be mental disease.
