ܰٲ (क्रियायुक्�) refers to “sacrifices that are connected (to the world of transmigration)�, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] [The Yogin] should avoid one who says, ‘I am the knower of Brahma� [but who is also] attached to performing [Vedic] sacrifices [that are] connected to the world of transmigration (ṃs첹-ܰٲ). [Such a person] has lost the benefit of both [Vedic] action and the [Upaniṣadic knowledge of] Brahma [and should be avoided] just as [a Brahmin avoids] an untouchable. [...]�.
