MIND : ITS MYSTERIES AND CONTROL : 14-13.
Chapter 14 -SAMSKARAS :- 13.
13. Death Of Samskaras Leads To Moksha.
The physical body may die. But, the thoughts and Samskaras of actions, enjoyments and thinking follow you after death till you attain Moksha.
These are variable Upadhis that accompany you after death.
They are variable because you carry different kinds of Samskaras each time when you die.
In defferent incarnations, you create different kinds of Samskaras.
The permanent Upadhis that accompany you after death are the five Jnana-Indriyas, five Karma-Indriyas, five Pranas, fourfold mind and the Karana Sarira which is the support or Adhara for the Linga Sarira or astral body.
It is the death of the Samskaras, it is the death of the Karana Sarira that leads to the final Moksha.
It leads to the attainment of Brahma-Jnana.
You will be getting fresh births so long as there are Samskaras.
You will have to take birth again and again till all the Samskaras are obliterated or fried up by the acquisition of Brahma Jnana.
When the Samskaras are wiped out, Brahmic Knowledge shines by itself in its own glory.
