Chapter 18
Mokshasanyaasa Yoga

Tatparya Nirnaya :- अधिष्ठानं means the body and the rest.
15 – 16 - 17. Whatever actions a man performs through the body, speech and the mind, judicious or injudicious, for them these are the five causes. This being the case, the one who considers himself as the exclusive performer of actions, due to lack of intelligence, does not truly perceive. He is of distorted intelligence. He who does not have the attitude that he himself is the doer, whose intellect is not tainted, even though be kills people he does not consider himself being the killer and, therefore, is not affected.
Bhashya :- The knowledge that one is not the performer of the action is further explained in this verse. The one who is bound by actions, he, verily is the one who has the attitude as the performer of action.
