Shloka 13
कर्मनाशाभावः, गर्भे जीवप्रवेशः, आचारधर्मोपदेशः
Karma’s Non-Extinction, Jīva’s Entry into the Embryo, and Instruction on Conduct-Dharma
ततस्तु क्षीयते चैव पुनश्चान्यत् प्रचीयते । यावत् तन्मोक्षयोगस्थं धर्म नैवावबुध्यते
tatastu kṣīyate caiva punaścānyat pracīyate | yāvat tanmokṣayogasthaṃ dharma naivāvabudhyate ||
उपभोगाने जुनी कर्मे क्षीण होतात; पण पुन्हा नवी-नवी कर्मे साचत जातात. जोपर्यंत मोक्षयोगस्थ धर्माचे यथार्थ ज्ञान होत नाही, तोपर्यंत कर्मांची ही परंपरा तुटत नाही.

Educational Q&A
Enjoyment may spend (exhaust) past karma, but it simultaneously generates new karma; only the understanding of dharma grounded in mokṣa-yoga breaks the continuing chain of karmic succession.
A Brahmin speaker explains a moral-spiritual principle: ordinary life driven by experience keeps karma cycling—old deeds ripen and are consumed, while new deeds are produced—until one gains liberating insight into mokṣa-oriented dharma.
