II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

माया मरी न मन मरा, मर-मर गए शरीर I
आशा तृष्णा न मरी, कह गए दास कबीर II

There are memories or impressions, the subtle traces or Vasanas of events- not only of the present life but also of events of multiple past lives the individual soul carries with it when the soul separates itself from the physical body upon the death of a person. They condition our sense and experiences.
Vasanas are subconscious inclinations, likes and dislikes, which drive habit-patterns or direct ones attitudes. It emanates from every thought, every feeling or every deed that one has done or does. The Vasanas are ego-centric in the sense they are centred on “I”.

When the individual being departs it takes with it the Casual Body that is the accumulated Vasanas, and gravitate towards a field that is conducive to ones experiences and inclinations.

"Kabir says, it is the Vasanas (desire in subtle form) that govern the body through the process of becoming thoughts, desires, and actions. The results of these actions add to your Prarabdha Karma, cumulative karmic baggage so to speak – which means more Vasanas and so goes on the vicious circle. They reside in the Causal Body, lifetime after lifetime. It is often said that you would not even incarnate were it not for your Vasanas. These latent desires become, in a sense, your reason for continuing to exist."
