Quote
Circumstances can be changed through agnan (ignorance of the Self) and they can be changed to gnan (knowledge of the Self).

Where there is kashayas (attachment-abhorrence, anger-pride-deceit-greed), there is no religion (Path of Doing Bad Karma). Where there are fewer kashayas, there is religion (Path of Doing Good Karma). Path free of kashayas is moksha (Pure Path).
