The very vyavahaar (worldly interaction) that has to be done to eradicate the anger-pride-deceit-greed (kashay), is indeed the same vyavahaar that is giving rise to this kashay!

One’s worldly interaction should be ideal. If one becomes ‘sticky’ (does attachment-abhorrence) in his worldly interactions, he will become kashayi (develop anger-pride-deceit-greed). The worldly life is like a boat. In this boat, you can eat snacks, drink tea. But you should know that with this boat, we have to reach the shore.

There should be no restlessness within, no matter what the circumstances. If there is restlessness within, know that the kashays have not left yet.

The whole world dislikes kashays (inner weakness of anger-pride-deceit-greed) and yet, all the kashays of the world are done willfully. One doesn’t like to be angry and yet he claims anger is necessary.

The restrain (saiyam) of kashay (anger-pride-deceit-greed) is called as saiyam [inner control].
