You are accumulating mental waste in the odor of your personality when you are behaving immorally.
If I do not concern myself with morality and simply act as I see fit, I not see any waste building up. However, if I were to house some set ideas for how I should act to be a moral individual and then go against those ideas it seems likely there would some mental turmoil.
If there is mental waste accumulating I see the issue not being in how one acts, but in conciously holding oneself to an arbitrary set of view points one has deemed "right".

Morals are culturally defined. If the culture encouraged grandmothers to bludgeon newborns with rolling pins to control the population. Grandmothers would be bragging about their swing and showing off the blood stains on their rolling pins. Morals mean nothing. DO what is practical for you.
Well put.

What a strange paradox! Every warrior on the path of knowledge thinks, at one time or another, that he's learning sorcery, but all he's doing is allowing himself to be convinced of the power hidden in his being, and that he can reach it.

Waste or not, irrelevant. The point here is that I will be able to identify how you have behaved in the past, according to how your personality "smells" in the present.
A thief/liar will never be able to properly fake the smell of a righteous personality, regardless of how much deodorant he is using to hide his true odor.

I am quite doubtful.

How dare you doubt the zanthius?

All this time I've loved you
And never known your face
All this time I've missed you
And searched this human race
Here is true peace
Here my heart knows calm
Safe in your soul
Bathed in your sighs

Yeah okay, so our posts here have absolutely nothing to do with who we are in real life.
 If one wills it this way.
Willing it the other way says something about the person.

I would suggest willing anything says something about a person.
