Kala is devoid of any action (nishkriya). Conjunction (samyoga) to one place and disjunction (vibhaga) from another place is essential for any movement.[Cha.Sa.[[Sutra Sthana]] 1/52] This phenomenon is not possible with kala, because it is present everywhere. Kala incorporates sorrow and prosperity in all living beings. [Su.Sa. Sutra Sthana 6/3]<ref name=Susruta/>

Kala is the name of ‘The Almighty’, which originated from no one. It is devoid of origin, existence, and destruction. It is responsible for generating natural and deformed [[rasa]] (six tastes mentioned in [[Ayurveda]]- madhura or sweet, amla or sour, lavana or salty, katu or pungent, tikta or bitter, kashaya or astringent) in substances. This means that all substances are devoid of [[rasa]] and potency in the initial stages of development. [[Rasa]] and potency develop after a certain duration of time. These natural [[rasa]]s further get deformed as time continues and substance progresses towards senescence. Kala is the process of transformation into seasons and is thus called ‘parinama’. [Cha.Sa.[[Vimana Sthana]] 8/48], [Cha.Sa.[[Sutra Sthana]] 11/42]
