Samskaras

Samskaras are latent impression in our consciousness. Just as a passport is a record of travel, samskaras are a record of the soul's travel thorough life. They are destructive and constructive impressions of our life on the pages of consciousness book. Similarly the DNA helix does not only carry the genetic impression but  the impressions and memories of our soul's journey of many lifetimes, which is not known to us completely. Most of us carry or hold the negative impression easily but not the impression of love, care and nurturing. Destruction is what we easily identity with, only very few people identify with construction and beauty of life. These samskaras dictate our behaviour and force one to act at different times, events and people. The best time to sow the seeds of positive and constructive samskaras is in our childhood. But by being aware anytime and at any age/stage of life,  one can work through these and do the  cultivation of new set of samskaras.
