What Is a Saṃskāra? The Imprints That Run Us
What is a Samskara and why does it matter?
Samskara is one of the most important Sankskrit terms in Hindu philosophy. Yoga, the union with the Higher Self, is said to be achieved as soon as the last samskara has been worked out.

This is why it is so important for those who to want to know themselves, or rather their Self, to have a clear vision of all the mechanisms of their samskaras.
