Memory (smRti) is the product of stickiness or attachment in the mind

SmRti is a product of the stickiness or attachment in the mind.

To be like duShyanta towards all objects, not just shakuntalA, is mukti.

(King Dushyanta married Shakuntala after meeting her in a forest, but later forgot her on account of a curse by Sage DurvAsa when Shakuntala neglected her duty to welcome the sage on account of being preoccupied with thoughts of her lover Dushyanta).

Non-cognition of objects is liberation.

Mind gets sticky and attracted towards pleasurable experience and retracts from painful ones.

SmRti of this duality is needed to teach it to be not sticky, non-attached.

In truth there is no other in the world. Names and forms are projected by the mind out of the Self.

The Self deluded by mind is attracted to itself as the world.

If a name and form constantly pleases the senses and strokes the ego, it is conceived of as a friend, a lover, a spouse.

If contrary, as an enemy, as one hated or to be divorced from.

There is no intrinsic truth to any of this.

If you see virtue or wisdom in satsang, that is in your mind.
If you see vice and ignorance in it, that is your mind too.

Therefore, SrI KRShNa in the BG says

na Adatte etc in BG 5.15, neither virtue or vice is taken by the Lord.

नादत्ते कस्यचित्पापं न चैव सुकृतं विभु: ।

अज्ञानेनावृतं ज्ञानं तेन मुह्यन्ति जन्तव: ॥ ५.१५

The Lord takes neither the sin nor even the good deed of any.

Knowledge is enveloped by ignorance, thereby beings are deluded. BG: 5.15
