Samvara - Stopping Karmic Influx

Through right conduct, one can stop new karma from entering the soul.

Samvara is the process of blocking karmic influx through ethical conduct, meditation, and the five vows. By reducing passionate activity, one closes the channels through which karma enters.

Close the doors to karma through right practice.
