akarta | अकर्ता
akarta (Devanagari: अकर्ता ISO15919: akartā ) means the non-doer.
Every jiva is akarta but it has been given an eternal servant called mind. Jiva wants limitless, everlasting, ever-increasing ananda. So, mind keeps striving to find ananda. Since, mind is material it performs tamasik , rajasik , sattvik karma and keeps getting entangled in karmic bondage.
If mind were to surrender to Guru , follow his instructions and attain the ananda that jiva wants then there would be no more reason to perform any karma. From that point onwards mind will also become akarta .
God does not have unfulfilled desires of His own. So, He is akarta.
God realized saints are also akarta because they have attained their aim of life. So, they don't have any reason to toil.
