kaama esa krodha esa, rajo-guna-samudbhav ah
mahaasano mahaa-paapma, viddhy enam iha vairinam

mahaasano mahaa-paapma, viddhy enam iha vairinam
The Blessed Lord said: "Born of mode of passion (Rajas), this desire in other words this desire (kaamna) itself is the cause of sin. This desire (kaamna) itself is reason for the anger, insatiable, all devouring and most sinful. Know this to be the enemy here.

What I want should happen – is `Kaam' or Kaamna (desire). When any action, object or a person gives pleasure or one wishes to draw pleasure from them, it is `Kaam' (Desire). In this one desire 'Kaam' itself many faults, offenses and sins are hidden. As long as a person has desires 'Kaam' within, he can never be entirely free of faults and sins. Without the desire 'Kaamna' there is no other reason for committing sin. It means that neither God makes the person commit sin, nor are sins committed due to his past action 'karmas' (Karmic package from previous lives or Prarabhda), nor time is a factor, nor a situation, nor Kali-yuga (Iron age) causes one to sin. It is the man himself under the sway and impelled by desires 'kaamna' commits sins.
