The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali - Book 2 - The Steps to Union
14. These seeds (or samskaras) produce pleasure or pain according as their originating cause was good or evil.

It might be noted that good is that which relates to the one principle, to the reality indwelling all forms, to the Spirit of man as it reveals itself through the soul, and to the Father as He manifests through the Son. Evil relates to the form, to the vehicle, and to matter and really concerns the relation of the Son to his body of manifestation. If the Son of God (cosmic or human) is [147] limited, and imprisoned and blinded by his form, that is the power of evil over him. If he is aware of his own self, unfettered by forms, and free from the thralldom of matter that is the power of good. Complete freedom from matter causes bliss or pleasure - the joy of realization. Evil causes pain, for just in so far as the Inner Ruler is limited by his body of manifestation just so far does he suffer.
