Why are the natural functions of the body and senses called karma?

According to Osho, body and sense functions are called karma because even when egoic 'I' is absent—sleep, trance—their activity is sustained by your own deep life-urge (jeeveshna) and unconscious will. Outwardly we label egoless activity as kriya, but essentially all doing arises from your inner continuity of desire; therefore every activity, natural or deliberate, is your karma.

Even your automatic body processes happen because a deep wish to live moves them, so they’re part of your karma too.
