Vāsanā
वासना
/VAH-sah-nah/Philosophicaljal tier practice
Subliminal tendency — the subtle, unconscious inclination that drives behavior without the mind's awareness. Vāsanās are deeper than saṃskāras: they are the background tendencies that generate the specific saṃskāras. In the KALKI system, vāsanās are the root-cause code that must be accessed and rewritten for lasting pattern transformation.
