________________ PREFACE. This translation was made in 1917 at Indore after I had finished my translation of Jiva Kanda (Volume Fifth of the Sacred Books of the Jainas). Only this, Part I, was translated. My official duties, health and many similar circumstances obstructed both a further translation and an earlier publication. In this, as in the publication of my other long-lain manuscripts, I am beholden beyond repayment to my beloved and revered brethren Jaina Dharma Bhushana Brahmachari Sital Prasadaji and Pandit Ajit Prasada, M.A., LL.B., both of whom have been doing this labour of love and piety at Lucknow from August 1926. Karma Kanda, in brief, is a scientific analysis of Evil, of Sin. Evil is material, as God or the Pure Soul is certainly immaterial. The Jiva Kanda deals primarily with the Soul ; the Karma Kanda with the material and self-forged Karmic fetters of this soul. It describes the matter and manner of this bondage, so that true and accurate knowledge may help the imprisoned, embodied soul to live a life leading to freedom and Bliss. Indeed the only use of true books-the "Bibles" of the world-is to teach people how to live. Otherwise they are a "dull and endless strife", and the over production of books on all subjects and in all countries may well be called a prostitution of the Press, and distraction and dissipation of the human intellect. The Press is like the Frankenstein of old, which created by man, has mastered him to the strangling point. The fiction Magazine with its teachings of crime and lasciviousness, the daily newspaper with its reports of divorces, dacoities, and all the dirty details of human defects and aberrations, are the greatest instruments of the Devil.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ Our costly and artificial systems of Education and Government also seem to be open to the same objection mostly. Well have the Conquerors of pain and ignorance (the Jinas) prohibited frivolous talk, jests, pranks, stories of sex, crime, political gossip, etc., etc., as Pramada (carelessness) leading to entanglement in Samsara (mundane life), and obscuring the real qualities of the soul. As it is impossible to improve upon that wonderful gem of Jaina Sacred Literature, the Jaina Bible, I have purposely quoted at length, in the Introduction, from Saint Umasvami's Tattvartha Sutra, as it gives the eternal, patent remedies and procedure for lessening and removing human ills. It is a very long process to show the application of these remedies to our many and complex needs of every-day life; and it is obviously impossible to indicate their application to individual needs. But the remedies are these, and every man and woman, knowing his or her own faults and frailties, needs and desires, can easily find guidance after studying these general rules of right human conduct. The test of the pudding is in the eating thereof; and the test of the value of these teachings is when a man follows them and finds that they cure his weakness and sorrow and give him peace, power, calmness, a noble delight in his own work and life, and joyous co-operation and brotherly service in his relations with his neighbours and living beings generally. In one word, these teachings instil into one an insight of his being a chip of the eternal Omniscience and Omnipotence which we call GOD, and at the same time excite him into an easy, almost instinctive, realisation of his being a happy member of the Universal Fraternity of all Living Beings. Whatever is correct in this volume, is due to the grace of the Tithamkaras and the kindness of my devoted friends at Lucknow ; but whatever is a mistake in matter and manner is entirely due to my unworthiness and laziness, i. e., to my Pramada.

________________ INTRODUCTION. Gommata-Sara, Karma-Kanda is really a complement of Shri Nemi Chandra Siddhanta Chakravarti's Jiva Kanda of Gommata Sara. For general remarks on the whole book, reference may be made to the Introduction to my translation of Jiva Kanda Volume Fifth of the Sacred Books of the Jainas. Here only Karma Kanda will be dealt with. The Six Substances. Space and time are co-extensive and infinite. Space consists of the Universe (Loka), and the Non-Universe (Aloka). The Universe consists of two substances: Living (Jiva) and non-Living (Ajiva). The Living alone has consciousness, power to attend and to know. The non-Living has neither Consciousness, nor Attention, nor Knowledge. This is of 5 kinds: (1) Matter (Pudgala) i. e., table, chair, brick, stone, etc. (2) Principle of Motion (Dharma) which is an essential auxiliary of the motion of souls and matter. (3) Principle of Rest (Adharma), which is a similar auxiliary of the cessation of the movements of souls and matter. (4) Time (Kala), in virtue of which things become old, new, or continue in their existence. (5) Space (Akasha), which gives their place or location to all substances. These six, Jiva, Pudgala, Dharma, Adharma, Kala, and Akasha, are called the six substances or Dravyas. Dravya. Dravya literally means flowing or continuing. It is so-called, because it flows or continues the same through all its modifications. It is called "Sat" or Existence also. Existence or substance is a collective name for a trinity-unity of Birth (Utpada), Decay (Vyaya) and continuance (Dhrauvya).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ Attributes (Guna). A Substance further is a group of attributes and modifications. As there are 6 substances, some attributes are general or common; others are special. Samanya-guna, or common attributes are found in all substances; these are the attributes which are necessary for the existence of the group, as a group or substance. These are infinite but 6 are principal : 1. Astitva, Is-ness; Indestructibility; permanence; the capacity by which a substance cannot be destroyed. 2. Vastutva, Functionality; capacity by which a substance has a function. 3. Dravyatva, Change-ability, capacity by which it is always changing in modifications. 4 4. Prameyatva, Know-ability: capacity of being known by someone, or of being the subject-matter of knowledge. 5. Agurulaghutva, Individuality; capacity by which one attribute or substance does not become another and the substance does not lose the attributes whose grouping forms the substance itself. 6. Pradeshatva, Spatiality, capacity of having some kind of location in space. Chetanatva, Consciousness Amurtatva, Immateriality Achetanatva, Unconsciousness Amurtatva, Immateriality Achetanatva, Unconsciousness ... are common attributes of the class of substance, or group of attributes, called Soul. are common to Space, Motion, Rest and Time. are common to Matter. Murtatva, Materiality Vishesha guna are special attributes of a particular substance. These are the attributes which distinguish one group from the others. Vishesha-guna or special attributes of each substance are:1. Jiva-Soul 1. Knowledge. In its full form it arises only in the absence of knowledge-obscuring karma. 2. Conation. In its full form it arises only in the absence of conation-obscuring karma. 3. Pliss. In its full form it arises only in the absence of all the 4 destructive karmas, etc. 4. Fower. In its full form it arises only in the absence of obstructive karmas, etc.
Page #12
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ 5. Right Belief In its full form it arises only 6. Right Conduct in the absence of deluding karma. 7. Avyavadha. Undisturbable, due to the absence of vedaniya or feeling karma ; neither pleasure nor pain. 8. Avagaha, Penetrability, due to the absence of age-karma. 9. Agurulaghutva, due to the absence of family-de termining-karma. 10. Sukshmatva, fineness due to the absence of body making karma. The first 6 are Anujivi attributes, which co-exist in and constitute the substance. They arise fully only on the destruction (kshaya) of the 4 destructive (Ghatiya) karmas ; Conation-and-Knowledge-obscuring; Deluding; and Obstructive. The last 4 are Pratijivi attributes, which merely indicate the absence of their opposites. They arise fully on the destruction (Kshaya) of the 4 non-destructive (Aghatiya) karmas; Feeling, Age; Family-determining and Body-making karmas. 2. Pudgala, matter has for its special attributes : 1. Touch ; 2. Taste; 3. Smell & 4. Colour. 3. Dharma, has for its special attribute the quality of being the medium of motion. 4. Adharma, medium of rest. 5. Akasha, Space; its special attribute is to give place to all substances. 6. Kala, Time; its special attribute is to bring about modifications. Modifications (Paryaya). Modifications occur only with reference to attributes. This alone is what is meant by Birth and Decay. Modifications or conditions change :-- i.e., a new condition is born, i.e. comes into existence (Utpada), and the old one decays, i.e. goes out of existence (Vyaya). The essential attributes of the substance always through all these modifications. It must be clearly understood and
Page #13
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ constantly remembered that substance is one; the birth and decax in its modification, and the continuance of the Substance itself are only 3 aspects of viewing one and the same thing. Also Substance (Dravya), Attribute (Guna) and Modification (Paryaya) are three mutually interpervasive aspects of the one trinity-unity; Attribute is nothing different from Substance and Modification. So for all the three. When we talk or think of one, we necessarily talk or think of the remaining two. The threefold distinction is merely for the purpose of exposition and explanation by our limited knowledge to others of limited knowledge. The soul with Omniscience sees the whole trinity-unity in its entirety at one and the same time. The Embodied Soul. In the Universe, the Jiva Dravya or Soul is found mixed with non-living matter. Even the most ordinary and the least civilised men, even animals, exhibit their recognition of this fact. For Death is a most universal and eternal phenomenon. The living body is ng ; when death intervenes, the body becomes lifeless, or dies. Life has left the body. This Life is the Soul : the body represents the grossest and most visible form of matter, with which the Life was clothed, and which was "Living" only so long as Life or Soul was united with it. The 7 Tattvas. The Soul (Jiva) and the Non-Soul (Ajiva) are the first two Tattvas. The most important non-Soul is the Pud gala Dravya Matter-Substance. The most important combination of soul and matter is our body. It is also manifest that this body is constantly changing, in - virtue of our activity of mind, speech and body. A feeling of modesty in the mind of the maiden paints her cheeks with blush. A sad thought gives one a long face. Criminal broodings breed a criminal look in a man or woman. The pious chanting of a hymn or prayer gilds one with the calm detachment and glory of the halo of a priest or devotee. Our food, dress, play and work, all bring about constant changes in the body. Matter attracts matter. Generally the law of nature is "like to like." The matter of bad thoughts attracts matter of bad thought, and ultimately becomes the father of a bad habit. This attraction of good or bad matter by the soul in virtue of its mental, vocal, or bodily activity, is called Inflow (Ashrava). When the attracted matter has actually become a part of our body, i.e., when it has become bound to the soul as the body is
Page #14
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ 7 already bound to it, it is called Bondage (Bandha). The Persian word bandah "bound" for man, is literally true in this sense of Jainism. The Christian "Fall of Man" by the absorption of Sin by man, is a parallel doctrine. If by pious attention and right conduct, the Inflow is stopped; it is Stoppage (Samvara). The gradual shedding of the matter already bound is shedding (Nirjara). The total separation of Soul from the bondage of all matter is Liberation (Moksha). In brief, Jiva or Soul plus Karma or Matter is what it is now in its embodied, mundane condition; and the embodied soul minus all matter is what the Soul will be in its Pure and Liberated condition in Moksha. Matter. This matter (Pudgala) is of 6 kinds : 1. Gross-gross, or very gross matter (solid), e.g. a mountain, a pillar of iron, etc. This class of matter when divided, cannot be united without the use of a third something; 2. Gross (liquid), e.g. water, oil, etc. On division this can be united without the intervention of a third thing; 4. Gross-fine, e.g. shade, sunshine. It is interesting to compare this with the corpuscular theory of light in Western physics, before it was replaced by the modern wave-theory of Huygens. It is matter which looks gross or tangible, but cannot be grasped ; 4. Fine-gross, e.g. fragrance, sound, sweetness etc.; the distinction between this and gross-fine being that gross-fine is more gross than fine because it can be seen as light, shade, etc.; whereas fine-gross cannot be seen, although its origin may be gross. The gases of science would be fine-gross. Fine-gross includes all things that may be perceived by the senses of touch, taste, smell or sound; 5. Fine, matter capable of becoming karmic matter. It cannot be perceived by the senses; 6. Fine-fine, matter which has for its atoms the combination of two or more ultimate atoms (paramanu). According to some Saints it is the ultimate atom itself. (Vide Jiva Kanda, Gathas 602-3. Outlines of Jainism, Pages 21-22.) From the molecular point of view, Matter is of 23 kinds : 1. Atom, anu vargana. 2. Numerable-atoms-molecule, Sankhyatanu-Vargana.

Of these the most important are Nos. 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13. Of all mundane souls there are 5 bodies only. 1. Audarika, the physical body of all men and animals. 2. Vaikriyika, Fluid, the body of hellish and celestial beings, which they can change at will. 3. Aharaka, assimilative, the spiritual man-like emanation from the head of a saint in doubt, in the sixth spiritual stage. 4. Taijasa. Electric body of mundane souls which always accompanies them. "" - 5. Karmic body found in all mundane souls. The first 3 bodies are made of Aharaka Vargana molecules of assimilative matter. (No. 5). The electric body is made of Taijasa Vargana (No. 7). Our speech is made of Bhasha Vargana No. 9; our mind, of mano Vargana, No. 11; and our karmic body of Karma-vargana, No. 13. Karmic Matter. Now it is with this last mostly that we deal here.

________________ Inflow of Karmie Matter. Inflow of Karmic matter towards the soul is caused by the vibratory activity of mind, speech and body. If the vibratory activity is with passion, the inflow leads to bondage of soul by karmic matter. It is called Samparayika or Mundane Inflow. If it is without passion, i. e., purely vibration in the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth spiritual stages and does not lead to bondage, it is called fryapatha or transient or fleeting Inflow. 39 kinds of Inflow. The Mundane Inflow is of 39 kinds, according to its causes: 5. Caused by the activity of the 5 Senses. 4. 4 Passions; 5. 5 3) 39 97 39 "" 39 " "" .. "" 29 33 39 25. 25 kinds of activity as follow: 1. Samyaktva-kriya, that which strengthens right belief; e.g., worship, etc. 2. Mithyatva-kriya, that which strengthens wrong belief, e. g., superstition, etc. 3. Prayoga-kriya, bodily movement. 4. Samadana-kriya, tendency to neglect vows, after having taken them. 5. Iryapatha-kriya, walking carefully, i.e., looking on the ground for protecting living beings which may be trod upon and thus injured. 6. Pradoshiki-kriya, tendency to accuse others in anger. 7. Kayiki-kriya, a wicked man's readiness to hurt others. 8. Adhikaraniki-kriya, having weapons of hurtfulness. 9. Paritapiki-kriya, anything which may cause mental pain to oneself or others. .. Sins of Injury, Lies, Theft, Unchastity and Worldly Attachment. 10. Pranatipatiki-kriya, depriving another of vitalities of age, sense-organs, power or respiration. 11. Darshana-kriya, infatuated desire to see a pleasing form, 12. Sparshana-kriya, frivolous indulgence in touching. 13. Pratyayiki-kriya, inventing new sense-enjoyments. 14. Samantanupatana-kriya, answering call of nature in a place frequented by men, women or animals. 15. Anabhoga-kriya, indifference in dropping things or throwing oneself down upon the earth, i. e. without seeing whether it is swept or not.
Page #17
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ 10 16. Svahasta-kriya, undertaking to do by one's own hand, what should be done by others. 17. Nisarga Kriya, admiration of hurtful or unrighteous things. 18, Vidarana-kriya, proclaiming other's sins. 19. Ajna-vyapadiki-kriya, misinterpreting the scriptural injunctions, which we do not want to follow, 20. Anakanksha kriya, disrespect to scriptural injunctions out of vice or laziness. 21. Prarambha-kriya, engaging in harmful activities or expressing delight in other's misdeeds. 22. Parigrahiki-kriya, trying to persevere in one's attachment to worldly belongings, 23. Mayakriya, deceitful disturbance of some one's right knowledge and faith. 24. Mithya-darshana-kriya, praising actions due to wrong belief. 25. Apratyakhyana-kriya, not renouncing what ought to be renounced. Note that the Senses, Passions and Vowlessness are the causes and the 25 kinds of activity are their effects. Differences in Inflow. The differences in inflow in different souls caused by the same activity arise from differences in the following: 1. Intensity of desire or thought-activity. 2. Mildness >> >> >> >> 3. Intentional character of the act. 4. Unintentional character of the act. 5. Dependence of the act upon living and non-living substances or activities. 6. One's own position and power to do the act. The Dependence (Adhikarana) is of two kinds, relating to the souls and the non-souls. The first, i. e., dependence on the souls is of 108 kinds due to differences in the following: 1. Samrambha. Determination to do a thing. Compare intention for an offence in Criminal Law. 2. Samarambha. Preparation for it, i.e. collecting materials for it. Compare in Criminal Law the conduct of the criminal before committing the offence.
Page #18
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ 11 3. Arambha. Commencement of it Compare Attempt in Criminal Law. These three can be done by three yogas, i.e., activity of mind, body and speech, thus there are 3x 3-9 kinds. Each one of the 9 kinds can be done in three ways, i.e. by doing oneself, or having it done by others, or by approval or acquiescence. Thus we get 27 kinds. Each one of the 27 may be due to the 4 passions. That gives us 27 x4=108 kinds. Thus the Jaina rosary has 108 beads, one for each of these 108 Jivadhikaranas. These 108 kinds can become of 432 kinds, if we consider each passion in its 4 aspects of Error-feeding or Right-belief-preventing, partial-vow-preventing, total-vow-preventing and perfect conduct preventing. The second kind of dependence relating to the non-soul is of the following 11 kinds. 2 Kinds of Production: (1) Mula Guna, i. e. of the body, speech, mind and respiration, (2) Uttara gana, i. e. production of books, pictures, statues, etc. 4 kinds of putting down a thing (1) Apratya Vekshita, without seeing, (2) Duh-pramrishta, petulantly, peevishly, (3) Sahasa, hurriedly and (4) Anabhoga, where it ought not to be put. 2 kinds of mixing up (1) Bhakta-pana, food and drink, (2) Upakarana, mixing up of things necessary for doing any act. 3 kinds of movement by (1) Kaya, body, (2) Vang, speech, (3) Mana, mind. Inflow of the Eight Karmas. I-II-KNOWLEDGE AND CONATION-OBSCURING. The inflow of knowledge and conation-obscuring karmic matter, is caused by the following: 1. Depreciation of those who are learned in the scriptures. 2, Concealment of knowledge. 3. Envy; jealousy. Refusal to impart knowledge out of envy. 4. Obstruction. Hindering the progress of knowledge. 5, Denying the truth proclaimed by another, by body and speech. 6. Refuting the truth, although it is known to be such.
Page #19
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ 12 III.- Feeling. The inflow ef pain-bringing-feeling (Asata-vedaniya) karmic matter is due to the following feelings and acts : 1. Dukha, pain. 2. Shoka, sorrow. 3. Tapa, repentance, remorse. 4. Akrandana, weeping. 5. Badha, depriving of vitality. 6. Paridevana, piteous or pathetic moaning to attract compassion. These 6 can be produced in one's own self, in another, or both in one's self and another. Thus there are 18 forms of this inflow. 1. Bhuta-anukampa, compassion for all living beings. 2. Vratyanukampa, compassion for the vowers, 3. Dana, Charity, 4. Saraga-samyama, self-control with slight attachment; etc., 5. Samyam-asamyama, restraint by vows of some, but not of others, 6. A kama-niriara, equanimous submission to the fruition of karma, 7. Bala tapa, austerities not based upon right knowledge, 8. Yoga, contemplation, 9. Kshanti, forgiveness, and 10. Shaucha, contentment, these are the causes of inflow of pleasure-bearing feeling karmic matter, (Sata-vendaniya). IV.-Deluding. The inflow of Darshana mohaniya, right-belief-deluding karmic matter is caused by Avarnavada, defaming the Omniscient Lord. Arhat Kevali ; the Scriptures, Shruta ; the Saints' brotherhoods, Sangha : the true Religion, Dharma ; and the Celestial beings. Deva, e, g. saying that the celestial beings take meat or wine, etc. and to offer these as sacrifices to them. The inflow of right-conduct-deluding karmic matter is caused by the intense thought-activity produced by the rise of the passions and of the quasi-passion, no kashaya. E.g. Joking about Truth, etc., disinclination to take vows, etc. including in evil society, etc. V.-Age, As the age-karma, the inflow of Narakayu karma, hellish age karma is caused by too much wordly activity and by attachment to too many worldly objects or by too much attachment. B.a. committing breaches of the first five vows of non-killing, truth, non-stealing, chastity, non-attachment to wordly possessions. The point to be noted is that it is not the possession or ownership of wordly wealth which is sinful but it is the attachment to it which is a sin. Aman may be in the world ; but he must not be of it.
Page #20
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ The inflow of Tiryancha-ayu, sub-human age karma is caused by Maya, deceit. 13 E.g. cheating others, preaching the false doctrines, etc. The inflow of Manushya-Ayu, human-age-karma, is caused by slight wordly activity and by attachment to a few worldly objects or by slight attachment. Natural humble disposition is also the cause of human-age karma. Vowlessness and sub-vowlessness with slight worldly activity and slight attachment, are causes of the inflow of all kinds of agekarmas. Not taking the vows of laymen and not adopting the restrictions (shila), but having slight attachment to the world and activity in it, can be the cause of the inflow of age-karmic matter of all four kinds. The inflow of Deva-Ayu celestial-age-karma is caused by : 1. Saraga-samyama, self-control with slight attachment found in monks only. 2. Samyamasamyama, restraint of some vows, but not of others, found in laymen only. 3. Akama-nirjara, equanimous submission to the fruition of karma. 4. Balatapa, austerities not based upon right knowledge. Right-belief is also the cause of celestial-age karma, but only of the heavenly order. It applies to human and sub-human beings only. A celestial or hellish right-believer binds the human-agekarma. Note also that if a human or sub-human being has bound a particular age-karma before gaining right belief, he must enjoy that. (See Jiva Kanda, Gathas 292, 527, 645). VI. Body making. The inflow of Ashubha-nama, a bad-body-making karma is caused by a non-straightforward or deceitful working of the mind, body or speech or by Visamvada, wrangling, etc., wrong-belief, back-biting, self-praise, censuring others, etc. envy, The inflow of good-body-making karma is caused by the causes which are opposite of the above viz. by straightforward dealings with body, mind and speech; by avoiding disputes, etc., rightbelief, humility, admiring praiseworthy people, etc.
Page #21
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ 14 The inflow of Tirthamkara-body-making karma is caused by meditation (Bhavana) of the following 16 matters : 1. Darshana-vishuddhi, purity of right-belief. Pure rightbelief is with 8 Angas or the following 8 qualities : 1. Nisshankita. Free from all doubt. 2. Nishkankshita. Free from wordly desire. 3. Nir vichikitsita. Free from repulsion from anything. 4. Amudha drishtitva. Free from superstitious belief. 5. Upa-brimhana or more popularly, Upa guhana. Ad vancement in one's own attributes. Free from a tendency to proclaim the faults of others. 6. Sthiti karana. To help oneself or others to remain steady in the path of truth. 7. Vatsalya. Tender affection for one's brother on the path of Liberation. 8. Prabhavana. Propagation of the path of Liberation. 2. Vinaya-sampannata. Reverence for means of Liberation and for those who follow them. 3. Shila vrateshvanatichara. Faultless observance of the 5 vows, and faultless subdual of the passions. 4. Abhikshna-jnanopayoga.

________________ Even one of these, if properly contemplated and with rightbelief, brings about the inflow of Tirthankara-body making-karma. VII.-Family-determining. 15 The inflow of low-family-determining karma is caused by: 1. Paraninda, speaking ill of others; 2. Atma prashansa, praising oneself; 3. Sad gunochchhadana, concealing the good qualities of others; and 4. Asad guna udbhavana, proclaiming in oneself the good qualities which one does not possess. The inflow of the next, i. e., high family-determining karma is caused by the opposites of the above, i. e., 1. Para prashansa, praising others; 2. Atma ninda, denouncing one's self; 3. Parsad gunaudbhavana, proclaiming the good qualities of others; 4. Atmasad-guna uchchhadana, not proclaiming one's own good qualities; 5. Nichaih Vritti, an attitude of humility towards one's betters, and 6. Anutseka, not being proud of one's own achievement or attainments. VIII-Obstructive. The inflow of obstructive (Antaraya) karma is caused by disturbing others in charity; gain; enjoyment of consumable things; enjoyment of non-consumable things and making use of their powers. Note. The inflow of 7 karmas, i. e., of all except the age-karma, is going on always, in souls influenced by the Passions, and of the age-karma also on special occasions; but the predominance of the above causes will determine the intensity of fruition (anubhaga) of their particular inflow. The special occasions of age-karma are 8 in one man's life, as follows:-Supposing a man's life is to be 81 years long. The first occasion for binding the age-karma will be on his passing 2/3 of it, i. e., when he is 54. The second on his passing 23 of the remainder, i. e., when he is 72. The third on his passing 28 of the remainder, i. e., when he is 78. The fourth on his passing 2/3 of the remainder again, i. e., when he is 80. Similarly the fifth when he is 80 years, 8 months. The sixth at 80 years, 10 months and 20 days. The seventh at 30 years, 11 months, 16 days and 16 hours.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ 16 The eighth at 80 years, 11 months, 25 days, 13 hours, and 20 minutes If no age-karma is bound yet, the ninth is the last antar-nauhurta of his life. The point is that the man is born with his particular age-karma already bound. Therefore he must bind the age karma of his next incarnation at the latest at the last moment. BONDAGE - Causes of Bondage. The causes of Bandha or bondage are :-- 1. Wrong-Belief. Mithyadarshana, wrong-belief, is of 5 kinds. 1. Ekanta. Taking only one aspect of a many-sided thing e. g., man is mortal and immortal, regarded from the point of view of body and soul respectively. Taking only one view is Ekanta. 2. Viparita. Perverse belief, e.g , Animal sacrifices lead to heaven. Injury to anyone cannot be a cause of merit. 3. Samshaya-Doubt, scepticism, hesitation, e.g., as to path of Liberation. 4. Vinaya. Veneration. Taking all religions and gods, even the so-called religions which enjoin cruel or immoral practices, to be equally worthy of pursuit. 5. Ajnana. Wrong belief caused by ignorance. Indiscrimination of good and bad. Wrong belief is caused by Nisarga, inborn error; or by Adhigama, preaching of another. The last is of 4 kinds: - Kriyavadi, belief in time, soul, etc. as causing everything in the world. All the substances perform their functions and become causes of different effects. To uphold otherwise is wrong belief. Akriya vadi, opposite of the last, e. g., the soul does nothing. This undermines all truth. If the soul does nothing, who is responsible for the doing and fruition of our good and bad actions ? Ajnanika, Agnostic. -Everything is not knownable. This is one of the general attributes of all substances How then can it be said that nothing is knowable? It may be unknowable from some point of view ; but that is all Vaineyika, Religion is identical with veneration of parents, king, etc., e. g., Confucianism. Obviously veneration and eternal truth are not identical. All these four together form 363 varieties of wrong belief i, e., 180, 84,67 and 32 respectively.

The electric molecules are drawn like the karmic molecules by the vibrations set in the soul by yoga of any kind. (For details of yoga, see Jiva Kanda Chapter IX Gathas 216 et seqq.) Karmic matter is bound to the soul by the Vibrations (yoga) of mind, speech and body, coloured by Passions (Kashaya) of Anger, Pride, Deceit, and Greed mainly. The vibrations determine the kind (Prakriti) and the quantity (Pradesha) of the Karmic matter to be drawn towards and bound to the soul. The Passions determine the duration (Sthiti)of the bondage, and the mild or intense fruition (Anubhaga of the karma at its maturity.

Some Acharyas treat the 93 sub-classes of the bodymaking Karma differently. I. It will be noticed above that the 93 fall under 42 headings, Gati (condition of existence), Jati (Genus) etc. Taking these 42 only as sub-classes, the total instead of 148 is 148-(93-42)-148-51 i. e., only 97. 1.

________________ 25 Of these, 1, 5, 9, 13, and 15 are represented by the 5 (Nos. 58 to 62). Therefore if the remaining 10 sub-classes are added, we get 97 + 10 - 107 or 148 + 10 - 158 total sub-classes. III. The 20 sub-classes (Nos. 89 to 108), i. e., of touch (8), taste (5), smell (2), and colour (5) may be associated with merit (punya) or demerit (papa). This division will add 20 to the totals. Thus the total will be 168. Thus considering the important Body-making Karma in the above different ways, we get the total of sub-classes of all karmas as 97, 107, 148, 158 or 168. But mainly in all Jaina books only the total of 148 is considered for all purposes. The Quantity of Bondage. As to Pradesha, according to the nature caused by their names, from all round, due to the differences in the vibrations (Yoga) in the soul-activity, not perceptible by the senses, the karmic molecules enter and become one and stay with every Pradesha of the soul. They come in infinite numbers, every moment, to each soul. The particular number of the molecules actually absorbed is called pradesha-bandha. Duration of Bondage. As to Duration, the maximum duration of the 3 from the first, i.e., Knowledge-obscuring, Conation-obscuring and Feeling karmas, and of Obstructive karmas, is 30 crore x crore Sagaras. This is possible in a rational 5-sensed, fully developable (paryapta) soul, who has wrong belief (Mithyatva). The maximum duration of Deluding-karma is :- 70 crore x crore Sagaras. The maximum duration of Nama, Body-making and Gotra, Family-determining, karmas is 20 crore X crore Sagaras for each. This is also possible as above. The maximum duration of Syu, Age karma is 33 Sagaras. The minimum duration of Vedaniya, Feeling karma is 12 Mu. hurtas - 12 x 48 minutes - - 9 hours 36 minutes. That of Nama, Body-making and Gotra, Family-determining is 8 Muhurtas.
Page #33
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ 26 Of all the rest, the minimum is one Antar-muhurta, which ranges from, 1 Samaya and 1 avali at the lowest to 48 minutes minus one Samaya. Fruition of Karma. As to Fruition, it is according to the name of the karma, e.g., knowledge-obscuring karma prevents the acquisition of knowledge and so on. Stopping of Inflow. Samvara is the stoppage of inflow of karmic matter into the soul. The causes of Inflow and Bondage are given above. Wrong belief (Mithya darshana) is stopped (Samvara) in the 4th spiritual stage (Guna sthana); Vowlessness (Avirata) in the 5th and 6th ; Carelessness (Pramada) in the 7th ; Passion (Kashaya) in the 8th, 9th and 10th; Vibration (Yoga) in the 14th stage. For the 14 Spiritual Stages see below :Samvara or Stoppage of Inflow is produced by : 3 kinds of Gupti, Preservation. 5 ,, ,, Samiti, Carefulness. 10 ,, ,,, Dharma, Observances ; (Dharma). Anupreksha, Meditation. 22, ,, Parishaha-jaya, Sub-dual of sufferings ; and 5, ,,Charitra, Conduct. By austerities is caused the shedding of karmic matter, and also stoppage of inflow. 3 Preservations. Gupti, Preservation is proper control (nigraha) over mind, speech and body. 5 Carefulness. Samiti, Carefulness is to take care. Samyaka irya samiti, Proper care in walking. Samyaka bhasha samiti, ,, , ,, speaking. Samyaka eshana samiti , ,, ,, eating. Samyaka adana nikshepa samiti. Proper care in lifting and laying. Samyaka utsarga Samiti. Proper care in excreting.

________________ 28 12. Dharma svakhya tattvanupreksha, Nature of Right-Path as said by the conquerors. The true nature of Truth, i. e., the 3 fold path to real Liberation. These must be meditated upon again and again. As to the first kind of meditation, viz., transitoriness, anity a anupreksha, it must be noted that as Substance, everything is permanent. Only condition is transitory. Of the matter assimilated as karma and non-karma by the soul, that which is accepted by the soul is called Upatta. The rest is Anupatta matter which is not taken in by the soul. 22 Sufferings, For the sake of non-falling-off from the path of Liberation, and for the shedding of Karmic matter, whatever sufferings are undergone calmly and with religious renunciation are called the Sufferings (Parishaha). The 22 Sufferings are : 1. Hunger. 2. Thirst. 3. Cold. 4. Heat. 5. Troubles form Insect bites ; mosquitoes, etc. 6. Nakedness.

________________ 19. Respect or disrespect by admirers or enemies. 20. To resist Conceit of knowledge ; and to be full of humility. 21. Lack of knowledge. Not to be pained, even though it is felt that one does not know much 22 Slack belief, e g., on failure to attain supernatural powers even after great piety and austerities to begin to doubt the truth of Jainism and its teachings. 5. - Charitras, The 5 kinds of Right-conduct are :1. Equanimity. 2. Recovery of equanimity after a fall from it. 3. Pure and absolute non-injury. 4. All but entire freedom from passion. 5. Ideal and passionless conduct (Parihara-vishuddhi). It is found only in a man of 38 years, who has served the Tirthankara for 8 years, i.e. from the age of 30 to that of 38). He must have read the Pratyakhyanapurva. (See Jiva Kanda Gathas 471-2). Shedding of Karmic Matter. Nirjara means the falling away of karmic matter from the soul. The fetters may by themselves gradually wear out and leave the soul free: but it is a long process. Therefore a shorter method is adopted; deliberate activity may hasten the ripening of a karma and the shedding of its matter. To illustrate : we wish evil to our neighbour A; the thought-activity invites the-karmic matter into the soul (asrava), the matter comes and binds the soul (bandha). This karma may take two months to bear its full fruits ; in the meantime it is an evil load for the soul. To gain lightness and to get rid of the karma, the soul may deliberately feel an oppozite kind of feeling towards other neighbours B, C, and D, or towards A himself. A still surer way is to practise austerity. By removing the mind from the demands and impulses of the body, and by mortifying the physical man through not listening to its greed and temptations, matter may be overcome and soul freed from the bondage. The natural maturing of a karma and its separation from the soul is called savipaka-nirjara. Inducing a karma to leave the soul by means of a contrary karma, or by means of ascetic practices, is called avipaka nirjara (riddance without fruition). The terminology of the distinction is derived from botany. A seed grows into a fruit. It may ripen by itself (savipaka); or it

The causes of stopping of inflow of Karmic matter given above (pages 26-7) are also causes of the shedding of the karmas already bound to the soul. In addition to these, austerities (tapa) also cause the shedding before its time. Tapa, austerities are external and internal. External austerities are: 1 Anashana, Fasting. 2. Avamodarya, Eating less than one's fill, or less than one has appetite for. 3. Vritti-parisankhyana, Taking a mental vow to accept food from a house-holder, only if a certain condition is fulfilled, without letting any one know about the vow. 4. Rasa parityaga, Daily renunciation of one or more of 6 kinds of delicacies, viz. : 1. Ghee (Butter, clarified butter). 2. Milk. 3. Curd. 4. Sugar. 5. Salt. 6. Oil. 5. Vivikta-shayyasana, sitting and sleeping in a lonely place, devoid of animate beings. 6. Kaya klesha, Mortification of the body, so long as the mind is not disturbed. The other, i.e., Internal austerities are also 6 : 1. Prayashchitta, Expiation. 2. Vinaya, Reverence. 3. Vaiyavritya, Service of the saints or worthy people. 4. Svadhyaya, Study. 5. Vyutsarga, Giving up attachment to the body, etc. 6. Dhyana, concentration. Liberation. When all the karmic matter has left the soul, it becomes the Pure Soul, the Realised (Siddha) or the Liberated (Mukta) Soul, Now in Jainism, the soul is immaterial and has none of the special attributes of Matter. Matter is devoid of consciousness and has none of the special attributes of Soul.

________________ 31 Mind is matter. Karmas are matter. Pleasure and pain are matter. Prosperity and adversity are matter, as being the pleasure and pain feeling karma, due to the presence or absence of some kind of matter. The Saint Shri Kunda Kunda says in Panchastikaya Gatha 82: "Things enjoyable by the senses, the five senses themselves, the bodies (including the five kinds of bodies, the mind, the Karmas, and the other material objects-all this know as matter (pudgala)." All matter is visible, even karmic matter, though not to our physical eye. Certainly mental matter is visible directly to mental knowledge. The inflow and bondage of Karmic matter being the essential causes of all pain and pleasure, it is possible in the light of Jainism to try to find out, what kind of Karma is the cause of a particular kind of pain or failure, and how the inflow of that karma is stopped and how, if it is already bound, it can be shed. If this is done even roughly and approximately, the study of Karmas becomes of immense and intense practical value. Also with caution and patience, it can be tested by and made a subject of, experiments. Perhaps some day in the hands of some lucky scientist, its results may be proved by science, like. The life, etc., in plants, which given as an axiom in Jaina books is proved by Sir Jagdis Chander Bose, only recently scientifically. Soul moulds matter. Every pain and adversity can be treated scientifically and surely in accordance with the Karma Philosophy of Jainism. Hence the necessity of studying the Jaina Karma Philosophy. It is not merely interesting as being of a curious character and great antiquity. It is not important only for the study of the History and evolution of some most important aspects of Philosophy and Religion generally, and particularly of Hindu and Jaina origin. It becomes essential (if it is found to be true) for the diagnosis and cure of, and prescription for our individual, social, moral, economic, political, and religious doubts, difficulties, deficiencies, disputes, troubles, and ailments. The causes and processes of mundane ailments are adumbrated above. Their remedies, as suggested by Jainism for the last 3,000 years at least, must be of interest and guidance. They are the Eleven stages (Pratimas) of the Householder's Life; and the vows, common to the Householder and the Monk, but followed in a more extended and intensive way by the latter.
Page #39
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ 32 11. Pratimas. 1. Darshana (faith).- A true Jaina must have a perfect and intelligent, well-reasoned faith in Jainism, 2. e., he must have a sound knowledge of its doctrines and their applications in life. 2. Vrata (vow)-He must observe the five minor vows (anuVratas), the three guna-vratas, and four shiksha-vratas. To give details: he must not destroy any kind of life, must not tell a lie, must not make use of another person's property without the owner's consent, must be chaste, must limit his necessities of life, and avoid the use of food which involves unnecessary killing of living beings. The three guna-vratas are special vows relating to the limitation and determination of his daily work, food, and enjoyment. The remaining four vows relate to his meditation in the morning, noon, and evening, co his keeping fast on certain days, and to his duty of daily giving charity in the form of knowledge, medicine, comfort, and food. 3. Samayika (worship). He must worship regularly in general for forty-eight minutes, three times daily. Worship means selfcontemplation and purifying one's ideas and emotions. 4. Proshadhopavasa (fortnightly must fast). He fasts regularly, as a rule, twice a fortnight each lunar month, 5. Sachitta-tyaga (abstinence from the flesh of conscious creatures). He refrains from taking fresh vegetables, because they are living. 6. Ratri-bhukta-tyaga (abstinence from eating at night). He must not take food at night. There are minute living beings which no amount of light can reveal or disperse, and which must be consumed with meals after sunset. 7. Brahma charya-Celibacy. 8. Arambha-tyaga.--Abandonment of merely worldly engagements and occupations. 9-11. The remaining three stages are preparatory to the monk's life. Their names are parigraha-tyaga, ani nati-tyaga, and ud. yaga, and they enjoin a gradual giving up of the world and retiring into some very quiet place to acquire the knowledge of truth and ultimately to become fit to be a teacher of the path to Liberation. Vows The vows (vratas) are five, i. e., to be free from Injury (Himsa), Falsehood (Anrita),
Page #40
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ 33 Theft (Steya), Unchastity (Abrahma), and Worldly attachment (Parigraha).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ For the vow against worldly attachment, the 5 meditations are: giving up infatuation (Raga), and hatred (Dvesha) in the pleasing and displeasing worldly objects of the five senses. The destructive or dangerous and censurable character of the - 5 faults, injury, etc. in this as also in the next world, ought to be meditated upon. One must also meditate, that the five faults, injury, etc., are pain personified, as they themselves are the veritable wombs of pain. And we must meditate upon the 4 following: 1. Maitri, Benevolence for all living beings (Sattveshu). 2. Pramoda, Delight at the sight of beings, better quali fied or more advanced than ourselves on the path of liberation (Guna-adhikshu). 3. Karunya, Pity, Compassion for Klishyamaneshu, the afflicted (klishyamaneshu). 4. Madhyasthya, Tolerance or indifference to those who are uncivil or ill-behaved (Avinayeshu). For Samvega, (the apprehension of the miseries of the world) and Vairagya, (non-attachment to sense pleasures), we should meditate upon the nature of the world and of our physical body. The world is transitory and not fit for love; and the body is impure and hampering in spiritual progress and therefore should be subordinated to the soul. Definitions of the 5 Sins. 1. By passional vibrations, the hurting of the vitalities is injury (Himsa). 2. Injury or himsa is to hurt the Pranas or vitalities, through Pramattayoga, i.e., vibration due to the Passions, which agitate the mind, body or speech. 3. Falsehood is to speak hurtful words through Pramattyoga, passional vibrations (Avirati). 4. Theft is to take anything which is not given through Pramattayoga (Steya). 5. Unchastity is coition or sexual contact, through Pramatta. yoga (Abrahmacharya). Wordly attachment is murchha, infatuation or intoxication through Pramattoyoga, in the living or non-living objects of the world (Parigraha). Worldly objects are said to be Parigraha, because they are the external causes of internal attachment A Vrati or a vower should be without blemish which is like a thorn (shalya) which makes the whole body restless.

________________ 36 These last 4, i. e., Samayika, Proshadhopavasa, Upabhoga parimana and Atithi Sam vibhaga are called Shikshavratas, disciplinary vows, so called because they are preparatory for the discipline of an ascetic's life. The house-holder is also the observer in the last moments of his life, of the process of Sallekhana peaceful death which is characterised by non-attachment to the world and by a suppression of the passion.

________________ 3. Abhaya, Re-assuring the frightened, or removing their cause of fear. 4. Vidya, Knowledge. The 14 Stages, and 148 Karmas. The 14 Spiritual Stages are: 1. Mithyatva, Wrong belief. Delusion. The thought-activity of the soul due to the operation of the right belief-deluding karmas. In this, the soul does not believe in the right path to Liberation. From the first, i.e., this Guna sthana, the soul goes to the 4th Gunasthana always. 2. Sasadana. Downfall. When there is operation in the 4th stage of one of the 4 Anantanubandhi kashayas, Error-feeding passions, the soul falls down to the first stage through the second a the thought-activity in the passage through, is called Sasadana. 3. Mishra, mixed. Operation of Samyak-mithyatva-mohaniya karmas or Mishra Mohaniya. Belief in right and wrong at one and the same time. This is reached always on falling down from the fourth stage. 4. Avirata-samyaktva. Vowless right-belief. Belief is produced by the Upashma, subsidence of the 4 Anant anubandhi kashavas. Error-feeding passions and one or three kinds of right-belief. deluding karmas respectively, i. e., one for a soul who has never been. or three, for a soul who has been in possession of Samaktva, right belief. The soul here has belief in the path of Liberation, but cannot observe the rules of conduct for attaining Liberation. Three kinds of thought activity may be noted in this stage: 1. Upashama-samyakta is attained by the Upashama, Subsidence of 5 or 7 kinds of deluding karmas. 2. Kshayika samyakta is attained by the destruction of the 7 prakrities. 3. Kshayopashama samyakta is attained by the destruc tion or subsidence of 6, and the continuous operation of the 7th, ie. Samyak-prakrti-mithyatva, right-beliefclouded-occasionally-by-the-slightest wrong belief. This kind of thought activity is characterised by 3 defects; i.e.:1. Chala, the defect of being shaken in his right belief, e. g. thinking that, worship of Shantinatha will bring calmness ; or that of Parsvanatha will remove obstacles, etc., etc., whereas all Arhats are the same.
Page #49
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ 42 2. Mala, the defect of having the thought-activity soiled by one or more of the defects or transgressions, e. g., Shanka, doubt; Kanksha, desire of sense pleasures; Vichikitsa, hatred of the sick and deformed, etc.; Anya-drishti-prashansa. Thinking admiringly of wrong believers; and Anya-dirishti-samstava, Praising wrong believers. 3. Agadha, the defect of losing firm hold of right belief, e. g., dedicating a temple and still thinking it to be one's own property. 5. Desha virata, Partial vows, i.e. taking the Partial vows. All the 11 Pratimas or stages of a layman's life come in this stage. These are given supra, page 6. Pramata virata, imperfect vows, after renunciation of all wordly objects, still occasionally to turn the mind to the service or needs of the body. This is, pramattabhava, careless, slackness in concentration. Henceforth the stages are all in the life of a Muni, " Saint. 7. Apramatta virata. Perfect vows, Renouncing the careless, slackness of the 6th gunasthana, and being absorbed in spiritual contemplation (Righteous concentration of the highest type). From here, there are 2 Shrenis, or ways of ascent; 1. Upashama shreni in which the right-conduct-deluding karma subsides; 2. Kshapaka-shreni, in which it is being destroyed. This last is the necessary way to Moksha, Liberation. 8. Apurva karana, new-thought-activity, Karana or thoughtactivity which the saint's soul had never yet acquired. This is the beginning of the first Shukladhyana, pure concentration on the pure, Atma or self. 9. Anivritta-karana. advanced thought-activity, special thought activity of a still greater purity. A stage of Prathama Shukladhyana. 10. Suksma-samparaya, slightest delusion. All passions are destroyed or have subsided, except very slight nominal greed, this is also first Shukladhyana. 11. Upa shanta-moha or Upa-shanta-kashaya, subsided delusion. A thought-activity which is produced by the subsidence of the entire right-conduct-deluding karmas. This is also first Shukladhyana. A saint must fall down from here, but if strong enough, he can resume his ascent from the Kshapaka mode of ascent in the 8th stage.
Page #50
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ 43 12. Kshina moha, delusionless. The entire right-conduct-deluding karmas are destroyed, in this stage, and the thoughtactivity produced belongs to the 2nd Shukladhyana. The saint attaining this, does so directly from the 10th stage without passing through the 11th stage. 13. Sayoga kevali, Vibrating-Perfect soul. Before commencing this, the soul must have destroyed the three remaining destructive karmas knowledge-obscuring, conation-obscuring and obstructive karmas. Here the soul becomes Arhat or Perfect soul in human body with vibrations in it. Preaching and Peregrinations belong to this stage. 14. Ayoga-kevali, vibrationless perfect soul. This is attained when there is before the sayoga kevali's Liberation, just enough time to speak out the 5 letters a I u R lR . In this stage-a very brief one indeed-the vibrations of the holy body cease, and the soul attaining Peace and Bliss, becomes one with itself and leaving the body is called SIDDHA. Now let us see from what particular kind of the 148 karmas the soul is freed in each stage. This can be caught at a glance from the following table :

Of these there are 26 sub-classes which are included in some others of which they are a sort of inseparable accident, and therefore really only 122 distinct sub-classes can come into action at a time. The 26 are as follows: The body (Sharira) karma is of 5 kinds: Physical, Fluid, Assimilative, Electric, and Karmic. The molecular bondage (Bandhana) and interfusion (Samghata) is of 5 kinds each. But the bondage and the fusion are entirely dependant on and associated with the 5 bodies. Therefore these 10 may be considered as nondistinct (Avina-bhavi). The touch, taste, smell, and colour sub-classes are respectively 8, 5, 2, and 5 in number. But each class has a distinct activity, i. e., there are only 4 distinct sub-classes from this view point. Thus 16, may be considered as non distinct. Deducting the above 10 and 16, i. e. 26 from 148, we get 122 sub-classes. Out of these 122 distinct sub classes 2, i.e. Clouded-Right-Belief and Mixed-Right-and-Wrong Belief sub-classes cannot be bound in the first stage of wrong belief, where the soul has and can have the bondage by the Wrong Belief Deluding Karma alone. Thus the number of bindable sub classes becomes 120. But the soul in this stage cannot possibly have bondage of Sharira or an Aharaka Assimilative-body; Aharaka- Angopanga or Assimilative limbs and minor limbs; nor the Tirthankara-body-making-Karma. Deducting these three from the 120, we get 117 as the total number of bindable Karmas in this stage. (2) The Hellish and Sub-human Age have had their bondageseparation (Bandha Vyuchchhitti) at the end of the first and second stage respectively. But in this stage no agekarma is ever bound; therefore the Human and Celestial Age Sub-classes also must be excluded. At the end of the second stage we had 101-25-76 bindable subclasses. Deducting the 2 from this 76 we get 74. (3) In this stage the human, and Celestial Age and the Tirthankara-body sub-classes can also be bound. Therefore to the above 74 these 3 must be added, making the bindable sub-classes 77. (4) The Aharaka Sharira or Assimilative body and the Aharaka Angopanga or Assimilative limbs and minor limbs sub-classes are bound only here, therefore (63-6)- 57 plus these 2-59 is the bindable total here.

That is, the soul which passes from this stage onwards, leaves behind him the liability to be bound by these 16 sub-classes. In the next stage the total number of his bindable sub-classes is is 117-16 = 101. (6) The following 25 sub-classes cease to be bindable after this stage.

But in this stage the naraka-Anupurvi or hellish migratory form cannot operate, therefore the total is 111. (17) At the end of the second stage the number of operable sub-classes was 111-9-102. There is no transmigration in this stage, therefore the 4 migratory sub-classes must be deducted from it. But as the Hellish migratary subclass has already ceased at the end of the first stage, therefore only 3 are to be deducted, leaving 99-(102-3).

The eternal bondage of soul and Karmic matter is their nature, "Prakriti", "Shila", "Svabhava". The existence (of soul and Karmas ) is self-proved (as) the dirt in golden ore. Commentary. The union of soul and matter is self-proved. This is the first point from which Jainism starts. This corresponds to the mighty and pregnant division of all things into Jiva and Ajiva, i. e., living and non-living, or soul and non-soul. Soul always, and soul

________________ THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS. alone, has consciousness. It alone is living, i. e., is Jiva. All else is non-soul, non-living, devoid of consciousness, which never had and never shall have consciousness, and is incapable of being conscious. Everything that is not Jiva is without consciousness. Pure soul is pure consciousness. Pure non-soul is without consciousness, or without any semblance of consciousness. This is not a merely logical division, convenient for analysis, arrangement or exposition. It is a basic fact. It must be thoroughly understood. Any error or doubt about this will certainly vitiate one's understanding of Truth. The duality of a human being is obvious. My nails are different from my idea of Shakespeare, or my ambition of being a worthy citizen of my country. The nail detached from me is dead matter. Not so the idea of Poetry or Patriotism. A still finer observation may be made. Life means a grouping together of so many vitalities, e. o. those faculties which enable me to apprehend objects by means of my senses, or to sense my own powers of body, speech and mind, or my respiration. These vitalities exist in me, but not in dead matter. Every fact in life, to the truly observant soul, cries out in a most unmistakeable tone the message of this inherent and inevitable mundane duality. There is Life. There is Lifelessness. We see it in every thing. We see it around us. We see it in us. It is only the man imbued with a philosophy, in the phrase of Hume, "subversive of all speculation", who blinds himself to the obvious existence of these two facts, or who by looking too long and too intently and exclusively only upon one of these, thinks fit to apotheosize the one and to deny the other. Of this one-sided lattitude are born the pure materialists and the pure spiritualists, typified by the Charvakas and the Vedantists of India respectively. For one, all is matter; for the other, all is soul. Thus at the very outset, Jainism sounds a clarion note of dissent from these one ews of Truth. It takes its stand on the plurality of the aspects of Truth, and teaches us that both the materialists and the spiritualists are correct, but only partially. Certainly ; there is matter, there is Ajiva ; thus Charvaka is right and the Vedantist wrong. There is also Spirit, there is Jiva; thus Vedantism is true, and Charvaka wrong. We must see both, as both are obvious. Take only one broad common phenomenon of death. John dies. The whole of John does not disappear. His body is there. His vitality is not. He is not there; he has gone from the body. That he' who has gone from the body and who when he was with it and in it, made it alive', is the true John, the Jiva who was called John, according to Jainism. The body which he wore and which

________________ GOMMATASARA. he dropped or left on death is the other partner in the firm of soul and matter; it is Ajiva. And still though the fact of this duality, this universal union of Jiva and Ajiva is obvious, yet its full grasp and thorough comprehension are far from easy. A beautiful little book by the author of Gommatasara himself gives us as clear a notion of Jiva, as any can be obtained in the peculiar and natural circumstances of things. The reader is referred to Dravya samgraha*, where in Gatha 2, the 9 chief characteristics of the soul are enumerated, and each of them elaborated in the succeeding Gathas. But here the point to be realised clearly is this, that matter -one of the 5 chief forms of Ajiva-is in union with soul, the only living and conscious substance. Lifeless matter is found united with living soul. The whole Drama of life is played or danced together by the living soul being in close grasp of lifeless matter. Lifeless space is the stage ; Lifeless Time is the duration; and lifeless Dharma and Adharma, the indespensable assistants for the dancers to move or to rest. The exercise of dancing is their eternal movement in the cycle of mundane existences. At each step, the momentum for a new movement is gained. At each embrace of matter, the delighted deluded soul throbs and vibrates for a fresh embrace. Wily matter is ever ready to attack the soul and to flow into it with its million insinuations and to keep alive and vigorous the bondage of the living by the non-liying. The inflow of the non-living matter into the living soul is called Asrava; the bondage is Bandha. The stoppage of Asrava is Samvara ; the release of bondage is Nirjara; the total Liberation of the living from the bondage of the non-living is Moksha. The 7 Tattvas or Principles of Jainism are treated in Umasvami's Tattvartha Sutrat, to which the reader is referred for further information about them. The activity of the soul which invites and enables matter to flow into it, as also the matter which actually does flow into the soul, is technically called Karma, The thought activity is Bhava-Karma ; the actual matter flowing into the soul and binding it is Dravya-Karma. This book--the Karma-Kanda of Gommatasara deals with Karmas, their incidence, kinds, etc, Notice also that in the world, all souls are always found united with matter. Pure souls abide only in Siddhakshetra, the Abode of the Liberated. In universal space, souls are from eternity subject to the bondage of matter. The Panchastikaya of Shri Kunda Kundacharya, talking of such souls, tells us in Gatha 27 : See Dravya Samgraha (1917) by S. C. Ghoshal, M. A., Sacred Books of the Jainas, Vol. I. See Tattvarthadhigma Sutra, S. B. J., Vol. II by Jaini.

This bondage of Karmas is from eternity, but when once it is broken and Liberation attained, then it is destroyed totally and for ever. Of course the matter of the bondage is freely and constantly being changed; but the fact and condition of the bondage of Jiva by Ajiva persist through all these changes. Old Karmic matter is shed ; and new assumed; but there never has been a moment when the mundane soul was free from its vestment of Karmic matter. dehodayeNa sahio jIvo Aharadi kamma nnokmm| paDisamayaM savvaMgaM tattAyasapiMDaovva jalaM // 3 // dehodayena sahito jIva Aharati karma nokarma / pratisamayaM sarvAGgaM taptAyaH piMDamiva jalam // 3 // 3. By the operation of the body sub-class of bodymaking Karma the soul attracts Karmic and quasi-Karmic (physical molecules) every instant to the whole body as a hot iron ball (draws in) water (from all sides). Commentary. The soul united with the body, is constantly taking in material molecules to renew and build its Karmic and two other bodies. Karmic molecules build up the Karmic body; and the physical molecules build up the other physical bodies. In all there are 5 possible bodies of a mundane soul (1) Audarika, the external physical body, (2) Vaikriyika, fluid body of the celestial and hellish beings, (3) Aharaka, the assimilative body in which a saint's soul flashes to an omniscient to resolve some doubt, (4) Taijasa, electric body, (5) Karmana, Karmic body. These are all material. The molecules of which they are formed are of 2 kinds. (1) Karma-vargana of which the Karmic body is made. (2) No-karma-vargana, of which the other bodies are made. The no-karma vargana is of 2 kinds,* Taijasa vargana, of which the electric body is formed ; and the Aharaka vargana, of which the external physical, fluid and aharaka bodies are made. Every embodied soul has at least 3 bodies, the Karmic, the electric and either * 23 kinds of matter vargans are mentioned in Gommatagara, Jiva Kanda gatha 694 -- 595, pages 294--295.

And in transmigration, i. e., its passage from one to another condition of existence, the soul has only 2 bodies --i.e., the Karmic and the electric. All these bodies are in form like the external body occupied by the soul; they are all co-extensive. Except that the Aharaka body is human in form but in size of a length equal to the forearm of the saint himself, i. e., from the elbow to the tip of his middle finger. The fluid body also, although it is changeable at will, is yet one to begin with, and its identity persists throughout life. siddhANaMtimabhAgaM abhvvsiddhaadnnNtgunnmev| samayapabaddhaM baMdhadi jogavasAdo du visaritthaM // 4 // siddhAnantimabhAgaM abhavyasiddhAdanantaguNameva / samayaprabaddhaM badhnAti yogavazAttu visadRzam // 4 // 4. An infinite part of the number of Liberated souls (which is also infinite), and infinite times the number of souls, incapable of becoming liberated is the (maximum and minimum respectively) of unit of bondage, or the number of molecules (which the soul) binds (to itself) in one instant, owing to the soul's vibratory activity (intense or mild). But (the number of molecules is) unequal; (i.e., sometimes more and at other less are bound). Commentary. Instant-bondage, Samaya Prabaddha, is the number of Karmic or no-Karmic molecules bound by the soul in one instant. Henceforth we call it the unit of Bondage or Instant-bondage. jIradi samayapabaddhaM pogado NegasamayabaddhaM vA / guNahANINa divaTThe samayapabaddhaM have sattaM // 5 // jIryate samayaprabaddhaM prayogataH anekasamayabaddhaM vA / guNahANInAM dvarddha samayaprabaddhaM bhavet sattvam // 5 // 5.

Note Gunahani (G) is the number of terms of a series, the sum of which is the number of molecules of a unit of Bondage, (M. U. B.) and each term in which is half of the term immediately preceding it. Gunahani-a-yama, (G. A.) is the number of instants (Samayas) in one Gunahani. aayuga nana gunahanis is the group of gunahanis in one Unit of Bondage. Anyonya-bhyasta-rashi-2 raised to the power of the number of gunahanis in one Unit of Bondage. Duration of Bondage (S). Thus gunahani-ayama number of gunahanis. E.g. If 48 samayas is the duration of Units of Bondage, and 6 is the number of gunahanis, then gunahani-ayama-48-8. Here nana-gunahani-the group of 6 gunahanis. Anyonya bhyastarashi here-26-64. This minus one, being the divisor of the number of a Unit of Bondage gives us the last term of the series. E.g. If a Unit of Bondage have 6300 molecules, then the last 6300 term is 64-1 -100. Thus the series of 6 gunahanis here is. 3200+ 1600 + 800+ 400+200+ 100-6300. In the example given above, the soul which binds in one instant 6300 molecules, of a duration of 48 samayas and of 6 gunahanis, will shed 3200 molecules in the 1st 8 samayas. 1600 2nd 800 3rd 400 4th 200 100 11 19 19 93 "" 5th 6th 19 A Nishekahara (N-2 G.A.)is always double the number of gunahani ayama. Thus in the above example nishekahara is double of 8--16. 99 17 39 99 Chaya (C) is the regular arithmetic difference between any consecutive two of the terms of the series of a gunahani.

When a Karma for example, the knowledge-obscuring-Karma, operates and the intellect begins to act perversely, we call that perversity a bhava Karma. Here we call the effect, by the name of cause. The bhava Karma is really the power in the knowledgeobscuring-Karma to operate and it is slightly figurative to call the result of this operation as bhava Karma. taM puNavihaM vADadAlasayaM asaMkhalogaM vA / tANaM puNa ghAditti aghAditti ya hoMti saraNAo // 7 // tat punaraSTavidhaM vA aSTacatvAriMzacchutama saMkhyalokaM vA / teSAM punaH ghAtIti zraghAtIti ca bhavataH saMjJe // 7 // 7.

It is called nondestructive, because its operation is limited to bringing about occasions for pleasure and pain. The realizing of pleasure and pain, depends upon the soul's attention and indulgence and ennui. If the soul is non-attentive to such occasions, and is not influenced by them, the Feeling-Karma though operative, cannot disturb the thoughtactivity of the soul. 5. ..............................

As in a machine, bird-seed (being ground takes 3 forms, husk, corn and powder); so in the machine of (the thought-activity of) the first subsidential right-belief the matter of wrong-belief also (becomes of) 3 kinds; and each one is innumerably less in material Karmic molecules (than the one proceeding it). Commentary. Subsidential right-belief is of 2 kinds. Prathamopashamasamyaktva, the first subsidential right-belief. It may arise (1) in a soul which has never had right-belief, by the subsidence of the 4 error-feeding Passions and Wrong-belief, i. e., the 4 Anantanubandhi Kashayas and Mithyatva; or (2) in a soul which has had, but has lost right-belief, by the subsidence of the above 5 and of the 2 samyaktva mithyatva, mixed-right-and-wrong-belief, and samyaktva Prakriti, right-belief-clouded-by-slight-wrong-belief. Dvitiyopashama-Samyaktva, the second-subsidential-right-belief. It arises in a saint in the 7th spiritual stage of Perfect Vows. When this saint is preparing to pass on to the 8th stage of New Thought-activity along the line of subsidential advancement, having been already a right-believer of the destruction-subsidence kind, he transforms the nature of the 4 error-feeding Passions into lesser Passions, and causes the subsidence of the 3 sub-classes of rightbelief-deluding-Karma, namely, Mithyatya, Samyaktva Mithyatva, and Samyaktva Prakriti Mithyatva. The right-belief of this saint is called the second-subsidential right-belief. Wrong-belief is of three kinds, Mithyatva, Wrong-belief, Samyaktva-Mithyatva, mixed-right-and-wrong-belief, Samyaktva Prakriti-Mithyatva, right-belief-clouded-by-slight-wrong-belief. The matter of wrong-belief Karma, by being subjected to the thought activity of the First-subsidential right-belief becomes of the above 3 kinds. Wrong-belief has the largest number of molecules. Mixed-right-and-wrong belief has a number of molecules innumerably less than that. And right-belief-clouded by-slightwrong-belief innumerably less than those of mixed-right-and wrong-belief.

The electric and karmic (bodies) with (the other) three; the electric with the Karmic; the karmic with another karmic; (the bodies) thus combining (we get) four, four, four, two, and one sub-classes (of the 5 bodies). Commentary. The 15 are these: 1. Physical-physical; 2. Physical-electric; 3. Physical-Karmic. 4. Physical-electric-Karmic. 5. Fluid-fluid; 6. Fluid-electric; 7. Fluid-karmic; 8. Fluid electric-karmic. 9. Aharaka-aharaka; 10. Aharaka-electric; 11. Aharaka-karmic; 12. Aharaka-electric-karmic. 13. Electric-electric; 14. Electric-karmic. 15. Karmic-karmic. These 15 are the names of the sub-classes of the body-making Karmas, by the operation of which respectively, a physical body is produced from another physical body; an electric body from a physical body; and so on. These 15 are illustrated as follows: 1. In a Chakravarti, who has 96000 wives, his original physical body is reserved for his chief wife. But for the others, he produces by the operation of this Karma 95999 physical bodies. Of course the soul remains the same, although it employs all the 96000 bodies simultaneously. 2. In a saint, in anger or compassion, the electric body which issues from the left or right shoulder is due to the operation of this Karma. Note that although he has got an electric body also, but the electric body which he throws forth from his shoulders is said to be produced by the operation of his physical-electric sub-class of body-making Karma, because the vibratory-activity of the soul which results in the operation of this particular sub-class is produced by the physical body mainly. Thus the Yoga or Vibratory-activity which produces the electric body, being physical, the Karmic sub-class is called physical-electric. Note also that these bodies
Page #80
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ GOMMATASARA. 17 which are produced are made up of fresh molecules, and are not divisions or offshoots of the physical, electric and Karmic bodies already possessed by the saint. 3. At the approach of death, a Karmic body is produced to go and sort-of-touch the place where the soul is to reincarnate. 4. At the approach of death of a saint in compassion, both the electric and Karmic bodies issue simultaneously for their different purposes. 5 to 8. Apply to celestial and hellish beings. Celestial beings never travel out, in the body in which they are born ; but they send out one or more fluid, etc. bodies by the operation of these 4 subclasses of body-making Karmas. Note that the hellish beings merely transform the matter of their own fluid body into another form. Their fluid electric Karma operates in anger only. 9 to 12. Apply to the Kharaka body. Somehow if it has not fulfilled its mission in its appointed duration, the saint issues out another Aharaka from the previous one. This is done by the operation of the 9th sub-class, Aharaka-aharaka. The 10th is, where an electric body is produced from the aharaka, e. g., to protect or extricate a saint from some trouble or difficulty. The 11th is when the saint is about to die and is in doubt also. The 12th is where the circumstances of the 10th and 11th co-exist. 13. Electric-electric. If one electric body has failed to complete its mission in its appointed time, then another is produced from the same. 14. When the Karmic is produced from an electric body. 15. The Karmic body produces another Karmic body.

By (the 6th, i. e., Sripatika) osseous structure (in which there are no peculiar joints but only ligatures) the soul goes from the first to the 4 pairs of heavens, (i. e., up to the 8th heaven Kapishtha). And those of (the 5th), Kilita (small joints and bones) and of (4th) Ardha-naracha (big joints on one side and bones) respectively go further to two pairs each (of the heavens). Commentary. The soul with 6th osseous structure can go up to the 8th heaven, but not beyond. The soul with 5th osseous structure can go up to the 12th heaven, but not beyond. The soul with 4th osseous structure can go up to the 16th heaven, but not beyond. merdiiasirgitzzyzzending arifa a fugar 1 tidugege saMghaDaNe NArAyaNamAdIge kamaso // 30 // navagraiveyakAnudizAnuttaravAsiSu yAnti te niyamAt / tridvikaikena saMhananena nArAcAdikena kramazaH // 30 // (5) 30.

The rational being with 6 osseous structures goes up to Megha (the third hell). (The one with) five, four, and one osseous structure excepting Sripatika, etc., also goes beyond that up to fifth, sixth and seventh hells respectively. Commentaryo. Only beings with the highest osseous structure can sin so deeply that they merit the tortures of the lowest or the 7th hell. That is, they alone can go down to the 7th hell. Those with four, i.e., the first four osseous structures, i. e. with all except Kilita and Sripatika go down to the 6th. Those with 5,i.e., all except Sripatika, can go down to the 5th. Those with all the 6 structures of bone can go down to the third hell. For the 6 kinds of Samhanana, see Tattvartha Sutra Chapter 8. aMtimatiyasaMhaDaNassudao puNa kmmbhuumimhilaaeN| AdimatigasaMhaDaNaM Nasthitti jiNehi Nidi // 32 // antimatrayasaMhananasyodayaH punaH karmabhUmimahilAnAm / dhAdimatrikasaMhananaM nAstItijinairnirdiSTam // 32 // 32. And the last 3 osseous structreus appear in the women of work-region (Karma-bhumi); the first three osseous structures are not (found in them). So it has been said by the Conquerors. Commentary. Females of work region have only the last 3 osseous structures, and no higher ones. Therefore they can not go beyond the 16th heaven, as stated in Gatha 29. Only those who possess the first osseous structure, Vajra-Vrishabha-Naracha Samhanana, can attain Liberation. Females of work region do not possess this structure, and therefore they can not attain Liberation from female bodies.

Commentary. Under the influence of vibratory activity, and passions, Karmic molecules are attracted to, and bound with, a mundane soul, for a period. This is Bondage, Bandha. So long as they remain in Bondage, without coming into operation, they are said to be in attendance, Satta. During the period, they gradually come into operation, and shed off. This is called their operation, Udaya. In all these changes, there always remains a body of Karmic molecules attendant upon the soul. It is called Satta. Satta may be roughly compared to a stream of running water. Within a particular area of the river, the water remains more or less the same in volume, although it is changing every moment as to the material water which is constantly flowing away. The volume which is more or less constant is like Satta. Of course the Karmas in Satta fall off by austerities, etc. or on maturity. There are 148 sub-classes of attendant Karmic molecules. kevalaNANAvaraNaM daMsaNachakaM kasAyabArasayaM / micchaM ca savvaghAdI sammAmicchaM abaMdhamhi // 36 // kevalajJAnAvaraNaM darzanaSaTkaM kaSAyadvAdazakam / mithyAtvaM ca sarvaghAtIni samyagmithyAtvamabandhe // 39 // 39.

Of the 148 sub-classes of Karma, 62 out of 93 of body-making Karmas, have been already described as pudgala-vipaki. 4 of the age-class are called as Bhava vipaki, because they operate to produce and keep the particular condition of existence of a soul. 4 Anupurvi sub-classes of body-making Karma, are termed Kshetravipakvi, because they operate to maintain the form of the previous body, during the transmigratory passage from one condition of existence to another.

Then the religious person, be he a saint or layman, considers it better to cast off his body instead of breaking the rules of control which he had adopted before, appovayAravekkhaM parovayArUNamiMgiNImaraNaM / saparovayArahINaM maraNaM paaovgmnnmidi||61|| AtmopakArApekSaM paropakAronamiGginImaraNam / svaparopakArahInaM maraNaM prAyopagamanamiti // 61 // 61.

There is thus no beginning of bondage ; and bondage from this point of view is called unbegun (Anadi). At each moment of our lives we are binding fresh Karmas of one kind or the other, i.e., we bind thos Karmas again which ceased to bind once; such bondage is with beginning, and is called begun (Sadi). (See also gatha 123). All Karmas will remain bound for ever to souls incapable of liberation ; this bondage is called lasting (Dhruva).

In (souls) advancing in (spiritual) stages, there is (in one and the same stage), non-maximum (bondage) of those Karmas of which there is the maximum (bondage), as regards duration (Sthiti), fruition-intensity (Anubhaga) and molecular-density (Pradesha), (and appertaining to any of) the 4 kinds (begun, etc). Similarly (there is) non-minimum (where there is minimum). Commentary. As an example, take the case of a soul on the subsidential ladder. When he reaches the 10th stage of slightest-passion, he binds the maximum fruition-intensity of the high-family Karma and then proceeds on to the 11th, the subsided-passion stage. There he stays a very short time, and must fall back to the 10th stage. There he binds the non-maximum fruition-intensity of high-family Karma. This non-maximum bondage is of the "begun" (Sadi) kind, because it has a beginning. Again; take the case of a hellish being in the 7th hell about to acquire right-belief. He will bind the minimum fruitionintensity of low-family determining Karma, in the last instant of wrong-belief stage. The same soul falling from right-belief into the wrong-belief stage binds non-minimum-fruition intensity of lowfamily-determining Karma. This is also the "begun" (Sadi) kind. The fruition-intensity bondage of the family-determining Karma has always been in this soul, and is of the "unbegun" (Anadi) kind. In a soul incapable of liberation, the Karmas remain bound forever, such bondage is called lasting (Dhruva). The maximum fruition-intensity bondage of high-family-determining Karma which precedes the non-maximum bondage as given above is an example of transient (Adhruva) bondage. sammeva titthabaMdha AhAradugaM pamAdarahidesu / missU usa yamicchAdisu se sabaMdho du // 62 // samyaktve eva tIrthabandha AhAradvikaM pramAdarahiteSu / faeia aigqa fazanzanity aqazaEZ || ER || 92.

Commentary. First subsidential belief lasts only for one Antar-muhurta, which according to some saints is too short to carry out the 16 meditations (Shodasa Karana Bhavana) which are necessary for the initiatory bondage of Tirthakara Karma. The beginning of the bondage of this supreme Karma can be made only by a man, and that also near an omniscient or an all-scripture knowing saint, because in no other surroundings can the necessary purity of thought-activity be attained. But although thus begun in the human condition, the bondage of Tirthakara Karma can continue in all the conditions

With-opposite sub-classes are so called because they are in sets mutually repugnant; the bondage of one excludes the bondage of the other. For example, when there is bondage of pleasure-feeling, there cannot be a bondage of pain-feeling. Sometimes ane may seem to feel both pleasure and pain, but this feeling is merely the operation and not bondage of the pleasure and pain-feeling Karmas; and even then the mixed feeling is only apparent, and not real ; because attention changes from pleasure to pain so instantaneously, that although the feelings are really successive, they seem to be simultaneous. The operation also of pleasure and pain-feeling Karmas is successive and not simultaneous. avaro bhiNNamuhutto titthAhArANa savvAUNaM / samao chAvaTThINaM baMdho tamhA dudhA sesA // 126 // avaro bhinnamuhUrtastIrthAhArANAM sarvAyuSAm / samayaH SaTpaSTInAM bandhastasmAd dvidhA zeSAH // 126 // 126, The (process of) minimum (bondage) of Tirthankara, of assimilative (body and limbs), and of all (the four) age (Karmas, continues) for an Antar-muhurta..

The maximum (duration of a Karma) divided by its maximum quiscence, is its quiescence-section (AbadhaKandaka, showing the number of the variety of durations with equal quiescence). After multiplying this by the number of divisions of quiescence, and deducting (the product) less one, from the maximum duration, (we obtain) the minimum (duration). Commentary, To illustrate. Let the maximum duration of a Karma be 64, and the minimum duration 45 instants. The intermediate durations would be of 63 to 46 instants. Let 16 be the maximum period of . quiescence. Abadha Kandaka, 'or quiescence-section is a group of durations, each of which is possessed of equal quiescence. In each group the quiescence will be gradually decreased by a common difference. In order to find out the Abadha Kandaka in a duration of 64 instants we should divide these instants by 16, the maximum quiescence. The quotient 4 would be the number of periods, each of equal quiescence. This group will include Karmas of duration varying from 64 to 61 instants each one of quiescence of 16 instants, For those with durations varying from 60 to 57, the quiescence would be of 15 instants, taking one, as common difference. For those from 56 to 53, the quiescence will be of 14 instants; for those from 52 to 49, it will be of 13 instants ; and for those from 48 to 45, it will be of 12 instants. Here the numbers of divisions of quiescence are five, (i, e., of 16, 15, 14, 13 and 12 instants). The minimum quiescence here is of 12 instants. The namber of divisions is obtained by applying the following rule :maximum quiescence - minimum quiescence 16-12 Common difference, +1= 1 +1-5. According to the Gatha, the minimum duration is 64-(4x5 - 1) 64-19-45. We can also find out the minimum quiescence for the minimum duration. Minimum quiescence section begins from 48 to 45 instants. If 16 is abadha for a Karma with duration of 64 instants, what will be the Abadha for one with 48 instants. By application 16 X 48 of Rule of Three, we get to. 12 instants. These 12 instants 64

________________ 82 THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS. In one-sensed beings, the maximum duration of wrong-belief is one Sagara, and the minimum is one Sagara minus (innumerable part of a Palya minus one instant). The divisions of duration from maximum to minimum having a common difference of one instant (Samaya) are equal to innumerable part of a Palya. Now by rule of three, if innumerable parts of a Palya are divisions of duration in bondage of wrong-belief for 343 parts, the number of divisions for 196 parts will be 19 assuming the innumerable part of a Palya-x. This is the number of divisions of duration from the maximum of gross developable to the maximum of fine developables. Then the maximum duration of fine developables will be:-- 1 Sagar- (1965-1. } 343 28x In the same way, we will be the number of divisions of duration from one instant less than the maximum of fine developable to the maximum of gross undevelopables. Therefore the maximum 196x duration of gross undevelopable would be 1 Sagara-1 -1 -10 343 343 Thus we should get the durations of each of 8 divisions for onesensed beings. Also the quiescience (Abadha) should be found in the same way. In the same way for durations of 4 kinds of 2-sensed, as below: The middle is from maximum of undevelopable to minimum of undevelopable ... 1 Shalaka. Then below, from minimum of undevelopable to minimum of developable-1x2-... ... 2 Shalakas. Then above from maximum of undevelopable to maximum of developable-22 ... 4 Shalakas.

And leaving aside the human, sub-human and celestial ages, (all kinds of) duration (bondage) of the remaining good and bad (Karmas) are bad. Commentary. Duration of bondage is determined by intensity of passions. Passions prevent liberation ; therefore all duration bondage is bad. Celestial, human and sub-human ages are not bad, because they afford an opportunity of subduing and destroying passions. Subhuman beings can reach up to the 5th stage of partial vow. Hellish beings can attain at the most to the 4th stage of vowless rightbelief, but they cannot go out of hell to any place where piety can be practised. In this respect, they differ from celestial beings who are also in the 4th stage, but can move about and perform acts of piety such as worshipping Arhats, attending upon saints, and visit. ing Jain temples. Beings in hell always desire to get rid of their bodies, while those in other conditions of existence are more or less

So long as (Karmic) matter which has assumed the form of Karma, does not reach the condition of (ma. tured) operation (Udaya) or the condition of premature operation (Udirna) (it is said to be in) quiescence(Abadha). Commentary. Karmic matter flows into the soul on account of soul-vibrations, and by operation of Karmic body sub-class of body-making Karma ; and then binds the soul, for a definite duration varying with the intensity of passions. The period between the moment of bondage and the commencement of its operation, matured, or immatured, is called Abadha. udayaM paDi sattaNhaM AbAhA koDakoDi uvhiinnN| vAsasayaM tappaDibhAgeNa ya sesahidINaM ca // 156 // udayaM prati saptAnAmAbAdhA koTIkoTiH udadhInAm / / varSazataM tatpratibhAgena ca zeSasthitInAM ca // 156 // 158.

And for the other durations, (it is) in the same proportion. Commentary. In a year there are 360 days; in a day 30 muhurtas, and 3773 pulse-beats in a muhurta, which consists of 48 minutes. Thus in on hundred years there are 100 x 360x24x60x3,773:4834,07,48,40,000 pulse-beats. The quiescence for a bondage duration of one Sagara is 4,07,48,40,000-10,00,00,00,00,00,000 of one-pulse beat. Thus it is clear that Karmas whose bondage is of ordinary duration begin to operate practically at once.

________________ 88 THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS. . The four kinds of bondage duration are maximum, non-maximum, non-minimum and minimum. One extreme represents the maximum, and the other, the minimum. The spaces from the middle point to the maximum represents the non-maximum and to the minimum, the non-minimum. The maximum and minimum durations are extremely rare. Ordinarily the durations are of medium types of varying length. Our ordinary passions are neither extremely intense or mild. The corresponding bondage-duration is also of ordinary length. The quiescence for one Sagara years' duration is roughly 25,000th part or exactly speaking *0,00,04,07,484 of a pulse-beat. A Sagara consists of innumerable years. Thus it is evident that if a person at the moment of birth binds a Karma of 70 or 80 year's duration, it must begin to operate after one Avali or winki.e., practically at once. . aMtokoDAkoDihidissa aMtomuttamAbAhA / saMkhejaguNavihINaM savvajaharaNahidissa have // 157 // antaH koTIkoTisthiteH antarmuhUrta shraabaadhaa| saMkhyAtaguNavihInaH sarvajaghanyasthiteH bhavet // 157 // 157.

(But note that) in age (the quiescence is) not a proportionate part of the duration, as in other Karmas). Commentary. : The age Karma is bound at one of the eight declining-times (Apakarshana Kala), see Gatha 517 (Jiva-Kanda). The maximum age is one crore Purva years in the case of humans in work-region
Page #152
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ GOMMATASARA. 89 (Karma-bhumi). So the longest quiescence possible cannot be more than one-third of one crore of Purva years. The maximum celestial . and hellish ages are 33 Sagaras and of humans and sub-humans of the enjoyment regions, 3 Palyas. But the celestial and hellish brings bind their next age-Karma 6 months, and the enjoyment region humans and sub-humans 9 months, before death. Therefore their quiescence cannot be more than one-third of this time.

Commentary. The Avali in the Gatha is called Achalavali or fixed wink, i.e. the minimum period of quiescence. Some matter out of the mole. cules having long duration can be brought to operation prematurely by diminishing their duration. Such Karmas must have a minimum quiescence of one avali before premature operation, Udirna.

(The number of) drippings (Nisheka) of the seven Karmas (is the number of instants in) the duration of the Karma minus its quiescence.

________________ 90 THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS. Commentary. Dripping is the number of molecules of particular Karma which are shed is one instant. It should be known that Karmic molecules bound at a particular instant begin to operate after passing the quiescence. Then those molecules are distributed over all the ins - tants of the duration minus abadha. In each instant thereafter there is a shedding of a lesser number of molecules than in the former, by a common difference (Chaya). Their proportion and distribution has been illustrated in Gatha No. 5.

After passing the quiescence, the greatest (num. ber of molecules) should be assigned to the first dripping (of the first Gunahani), (i.e., the greatest number of molecules will be shed in the first instant of any dripping). Then reduce (at each instant) by the common difference (Chaya) or(Nishekha) up to the first dripping of the next Gunahani).

In the second (and other) drippings of the second (Gunahani), the common difference (is) half of the common diffierence of the first (Gunahani) and similarly in each Gunahani the common difference (Chaya) is half of that in (the preceding one).

The power (of fruition) of the (4) destructive (Karmas, i.e., knowledge-and conation-obscuring, deluding and obstructive Karmas) is said to be like the creepers (Lata), wood (Daru), bone (Asthi), and stone (Pashana), (where the hardness increases at every step). And (from the creeper degree) up to an infinite part of the wood (degree) the degrees are partially-destructive (Desha Ghati), and all (the degrees) beyond that, (aer all-destructive Sarvaghati), Commentary. Partially-destructive Karmas are those which do not wholly destroy the qualities of the soul. Except the deluding Karmas, their destructive-subsidence always exists in a greater or less degree, resulting in some quality of the soul being unobscured, while alldestructive Karmas are those which totally obscure the quality of a soul, which can only be exposed by their full destruction. For example, perfect knowledge-obscuring Karma is all-destructive. Until it is destroyed, not a bit of perfect knowledge is possible. Sensitive and scriptural knowledge-obscuring Karmas are partiallydestructive. Their destructive-subsidence always exists in every mundane soul; therefore each soul from one-sensed to five sensed has got some sensitive and letterless scriptural knowledge. desotti have sammaM tatto dArUaNaMtime missaM / sesA aNaMtabhAgA ahisilAphaTTayA micche||181|| deza iti bhavet samyaktvaM tataH dArvanantime mizram / zeSA anantabhAgA asthizilAsparddhakA mithyAtve // 181 // 181.

The remaining infinite parts (of wood class and the whole of) the bone (and) the stone (classes of) powers of fruition (form) the wrong-belief (Mithyatva sub-class of the rightbelief-deluding Karma). Commentary, The wholly destructive power of fruition is separate for the mixed-right-and-wrong-belief sub-class of the right-belief deluding Karma. The following chart shows the distribution of the four classes of the power of fruition over the 3 sub-classes of the rightbelief-deluding-Karma. g=Stone. b- Bone. We Wood. C- Creeper. x - Infinite, Wrong-belief fruition. Mixed fruition. Clouded right-belief fruition. w- }| W The following chart shows that the harder or intenser kind of fruition always includes the softer or milder kind; but not vice versa. For example wrong-belief may be of 3 degrees of fruition: (1) Of the utmost intensity represented by the hardness of stone. This includes the hardness of bone and the maximum hardness of wood. (2) Of the intensity represented by the hardness of bone. It includes the maximum hardness of wood. (3) Of the intensity represented by the maximum hardness of wood. Similarly right-belief-clouded by wrong-belief is of 2 kinds: (1) Of the softness of the young wood. This includes the softness of a creeper. (2) Of the softness of a creeper which necessarily excludes even the comparative hardness of soft young-wood.

________________ Stone. It would be seen that the intensity of mixed-right-and-wrongbelief is represented only by the medium hardness of wood. It will have infinite degrees of hardness, but its hardness as a class remains milder than the hardness of a bone and intenser than the hardness or softness of a creeper.

Of these 17 partially-destructive are dealt with above. They have all the four degrees of intensity. Two, namely the right-wrongbelief, and clouded right-belief are not bound at all. They merely appear in the bondage of wrong belief, and emerge as distinct subclasses in the operation of the wrong-belief sub-class; i. e., the bondage is only of wrong-belief; but its operation is in the form of all these 3 sub-classes, if the wrong-believer from the 1st stage of

This subsidence lasts for one Antar* muhurta and in this interval the matter of the wrong-belief-Karma splits up into the 3 kinds of, wrong-belief, right-wrong-belief, and clouded-right-belief. After the antar-muhurta of subsidence, the soul passes into the stage corresponding to any of these three, which-ever may come into operation. It is thus that although the bondage is of wrong-belief only, the operation is of the three-subclasses. The four kinds of intensity as they are distributed in the above 3 sub-classes have been dealt with in Gatha 181. Thus leaving these 20 aside, we are left with 27. These may be considered in two groups, 19 of wholly destructive and 8 of partially destructive. In the 19 wholly destructive, i.e., in perfect knowledgeobscuring, perfect-conation-obscuring, somnambulism, deep sleep, heavy drowsiness, sleep and drowsiness, and in the 12, i. e., error-feeding, partial and total vow-preventing classes of the 4 passions anger, pride, deceit and greed, there are only 3 degrees of fruition in intensity corresponding to the hardness of stone, bone, and wood as given in the chart below:-- And in the 8 partially destructive minor passions, i, e., all the nine except male inclination, there are only 3 degrees of intensity of fruition corresponding to stone, bone and wood as given below: Notice that in the 3 degrees of the 19, creeper is omitted ; but it is included in the 3 degrees of the eight.

The merit (sub-classes of the) non-destructive (Karmas have their) divisions (of fruition) like molasses, candy, sugar, and nectar. The demerit (sub-classes have) like Neem, Kanjira, poison (Visha) deadly poison (Halahala). Commentary. Of the total 148 sub-classes, only 120 are bound, i.e., all except the right-wrong-belief, and clouded-right-belief, sub-classes of the right-belief deluding Karma ; 5 molecular bondages, 5 interfusions, and 16 out of 20 sub-classes of touch, taste, smell and colour. All the 120 operate, but in its operation the wrong-belief sub-class of right-belief-deluding Karma is spilt in three parts; therefore the bondage is of 120, but the operation is of 122. Of these 122, 47 are destructive. They are 5 knowledge-obscuring, 9 conation-obscuring, 28 deluding and 5 obstructive. The rest i.e., 75 are non-destructive. Of these 75, 42 involve merit and 33 demerit. But as all Karmas are material and matter has always some kind of touch. taste, smell and colour, these four must be added to these 33, thus making the demerit sub-classes 37. The degrees of fruition of the 42 merit and 37 demerit subclasses are of 3 kinds. The lowest degree of merit or of demerit

In the above definition of molecule Eka Kshetra, one-body-extent is the space occupied by the lowest possible body of a fine undevelopable common soul; see No. 1 in the table under Gatha 101 of Jiva Kanda page 76). This is in contra-distinction to Aneka-kshetra or not-one-body-extent which is all the space except the one-bodyextent. Yogyam - fit to become Karma Karmic molecules (Karma Vargana) are dead matter. They never become living. But they can be united by the living soul with itself; and then they are called Karmas. Svaka-hetubhih- The soul is alone responsible for all its activity which is the real cause of the bondage of Karmic matter. Five such

________________ GOMMATASARA. 105 causes are given in Jain Siddhanta, Wrong-belief, Mithyatva; Vowlessness, Avirata; Carelessness, Pramada; Passions, Kashaya; and Virbration, Yoga. Anadi or " Unbegun" molecules are those which never have been bound to any soul. This can be easily understood, when we remember that molecules of other kinds of matter are constantly being transformed into Karmic molecules, which are obviously virgin of all bondage. Sadi or" begun" are those molecules whose bondage has already begun, i.e., which have been bound already to some soul or other and having been shed by that are bound again. Roughly the anonlogy is the same as that of new and second hand clothes. eyasarIrogAhiyameyakkhettaM aNeyakhettaM tu| avasesaloyakhettaM khettaNusAriSThiyaM rUvI // 186 // ekazarIrAvagAhitamekakSetramanekakSetraM tu / avazeSalokakSetraM kSetrAnusAristhitaM rUpi // 186 // 186.

An infinite part of the matter which is located in one-body and not-one-body-extent is fit (for becoming Karma). The rest is unfit. Each (is) begun (Sadi) and unbegun (Anadi). Commentary. Thus there are 3 pairs of distinctions:-- One-body and not-onebody-extent; fit and unfit to become Karma; and begun and un-begun; and there are8divisions (2x2x2):

The maximum unit of bondage (Samaya Prabaddha) multiplied by (the instants of) past time, (the product ) being multiplied by the total (number of) souls is the begun (Sadi or second-hand Karmic matter). So it is has been said. Commentary. Jyestha-The maximum unit of bondage is that which is produced by the maximum vibratory activity of the soul. All begun or second-hand Karmic matter is that which has been bound to any soul at least once. Therefore the whole of it must be included in the total matter which has been bound to all the souls. If we suppose every instant of their existence to have been one of activity corresponding to maximum bondage, its maximum bondage is possible, but it is not actually maximum bondage. This is so because every soul in every instant of its existence is not necessarily with the maximum vibratory thought-activity. Therefore the begun or second-hand Karmic matter must be less than the above product. sagasagakhettagayassa ya atimaM joggadavvagayasAdI / sesaM ajoggasaMgayasAdI hoditti siddihaM // 186 // svakasvakakSetragatasya ca anantimaM yogyadravyagatasAdi / zeSamayogya saMgatasAdi bhavatIti nirdiSTam // 186 // 189. The fit end begun matter is an infinite part of the (whole begun) matter which exists in the extent of each (whether it be one-body or not-one-body extent, Eka, or Aneka Kshetra). The rest is unfit and begun matter. So it has been said.

The quantity of unbegun, fit, and unfit matter, (respectively) is necessarily the (total) fit and unfit matter, minus it own respective begun (matter). Commentary. Matter is of two kinds, fit for Karmic bondage or unfit for Karmic bondage. Each is of two kinds (1) begun or Sadi which was bound and then shed off and (2) unbegun or Anadi, which has not yet been bound. This mundane soul at every instant absorbs fit matter sometimes begun, sometimes unbegun, sometimes mixed. sayalarasarUvagaMdhehiM pariNadaM caramacaduhiM phaasehi| siddhAdo'bhavvAdo'NaMtimabhAgaM guNaM vvaM // 161 // sakalarasarUpagandhaiH pariNataM caramacaturbhiH sprshH| siddhAdabhavyAdanantimabhAgaM guNaM dravyam // 161 // 191.

Commentary. One unit of bondage consists of molecules so-fine that it is not possible to appertain to it the four conditions of touch, i. e., heavy and light, hard and soft. It is modified into other conditions of touch, all kinds of taste, colour and smell. bhAugabhAgo thovo NAmAgode samo tado ahiyo| pAditiyevi ya tatto mohe tatto tado tadiye // 16 //

(The above unit of bondage is transformed into the 8 classes of Karmas as follows): The age part (is) the least. The body and family (Karmas are) equal, (but) more than that (i. e., the age Karma). And the three destructive (obstructive, conation and knowledge obscuring are) also (equal), (but more) than that (i. e., the body or family Karma). The deluding Karma (is more) than that (i. e., any of these three destructive Karmas). (And) the third (i, e., the feeling Karma is more) than that (i. e., the deluding Karma). Commentary. Note that the transformation into the age Karma is possible only in the 8 "declining-times" Apakarsha-Kala (see Jiva Kanda Gatha 518 page 258). Otherwise the unit of bondage is transformed into the remaining 7 Karmas up to 9th stage. In the 10th there is no transformation into the Deluding Karma. In the 11th, 12th and 13th stages the transformation is only into the pleasure (Sata) Feeling (Vedaniya) Karma. suhadukkhaNimittAdo bahuNijjaragotti veynniiyss| savvehiMto bahugaM davvaM hoditti NijhiM // 163 // sukhaduHkhanimittAt bahunirjaraka iti vedanIyasya / sarvebhyaH bahukaM dravyaM bhavatIti nirdiSTam // 163 / / 193. Owing to continuous) causes for pleasure and pain, (there is) much shedding of (feeling-Karma), therefore the largest (part of Karmic) matter is appropriated by feeling-Karma. So it has been said. Commentary. In every instant of our life there is a feeling of pleasure or pain. These two feelings predominate all other sensations. The operation and fruition of every Karma implies shedding of its Karmic matter. There is thus a continuous and considerable shedding of the feeling Karmas,

(Among sub-classes) of the remaining (i. e., feeling, family and age-Karmas there is) no distribution (of matter). Commentary. . In one instant there is bondage of either pleasure or painfeeling; of high or low family and of one of the 4 kinds of age-Karma. Therefore there is no distribution in sub-classes of feeling, family and age-Karma. Let us take an example of decreasing matter. The matter of scriptural knowledge-obscuring Karma is less than that of the sensitive knowledge obscuring Karma and the matter of visual knowledge-obscuring Karma is less than that of the scripturat knowledge-obscuring Karma.

________________ GOMMATASARA. 111 As example of increasing matter, the matter of gain-obstructive Karma is more than that of charity-obstructive Karma; and that of enjoyment-obstructive Karma is more than that of the gainobstructive Karma; and so on. savvAvaraNaM davvaM aNaMtabhAgo du mUlaMpayaDINaM / sesA aNaMtabhAgA desAvaraNaM have davvaM // 17 // sarvAvaraNaM dravyamanantabhAgastu mUlaprakRtInAm / zeSA anantabhAgA dezAvaraNaM bhavet dravyam // 167 // 197.

The remain ing infinite parts are the matter of the partially-obscuring (or destructive Desha-Ghati sub-classes). Commentary. Although sensitive, scriptural, visual, and mental knowledgeobscuring and ocular, non-ocular and visual conation-obscuring; and perfect conduct-preventing 4 passions, and 8 quasi passions, subclasses are partially-destructive, yet each of them contains some matter which fully obscures the nature of all. Where Sarva-Ghati is operative also, one cannot have a bit of its opposite nature, for example one-sensed beings have not got ocular conation, because there is operation of matter of all-ocular-conation-obscuring Karmas. desAvaraNapaNoNNabbhatthaM tu aNaMtasaMkhamettaM khu / savvAvaraNadhaNaTuM paDibhAgo hodi ghAdINaM // 168 // dezAvaraNAnyonyAbhyastaM tu anantasaMkhyAmAnaM khalu / sarvAvaraNadhanArtha pratibhAgo bhavati ghAtinAm // 198 // 198.

To find out the total (number of molecules) of the whollydestructive (sub-classes it) is the common divisor for the destructive Karmas,
Page #175
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ 112 THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS. Commentary. Obviously the distinction of partially-destructive, Desha-Ghati and wholly-destructive Sarva-Ghati applies only to the sub-classes of 4 destructive Karmas. So does also the distinction as to the 4 degrees of intensity of fruition, as examplified by the degrees of hardness of stone, bone, wood and creeper. The hardness of a creeper and an infinite part of wood is confined to the partially destructive Karmas. Beyond that there are the wholly destructive, see Gatha 180. Let 3100 be the whole matter bound in one instant, 40 instants be the duration, Nana Gunahani -5, Gunahani-8, than 2 Gunahani 16 and Anyonya bhastarashi - 32. Then 3100 (32-1)-100-the number of molecules in last Gunahani of stone kind of matter. Then five Gunahanis will be 100+ 200+400+800+ 1,600. Total 3,100. Here 1,600 molecules is the number of creeper kind of partially destructive Karmas. A little more than this 1,600, i.e., 1,600 adding something equal to infinite part of wood kind is the total number of molecules of partially destructive Karmas. The remaining is the number of molecules of wholly destructive Karmas. savvAvaraNaM davvaM vibhaMjaNijjaM tu ubhayapayaDIsu / desAvaraNaM davvaM desAvaraNesu vidare // 166 // sarvAvaraNaM dravyaM vibhaJjanIyaM tu ubhayaprakRtiSu / dezAvaraNaM dravyaM dezAvaraNeSu naivetarasmin // 166 // 199. The wholly-destructive matter should be distributed among both the sub-classes (i. e., wholly and partially destructive sub-classes). The partially-destructive matter (should be distributed) among the partially-destructive sub-classes, but never in the other (i. e., wholly-destructive sub-classes). Commentary. Infinite part of the molecules of any destructive Karma is the number of wholly-destructive-matter and the remaining many parts is that of partially-destructive matter. The molecules of whollydestructive, are to be distributed to both sub-classes of wholly and partially-destructive, but the partially-destructive matter should only be given to themselves.

The birth vibratory divisions (Upapada Yoga Sthana in soul-classes) should be known to be minimum and maximum in the first instant of the birth of a soul after transmigration with turnings or in straight line (respectively). Commentary. The birth-vibratory division has a duration of only one instant namely the instant of birth which immediately follows the last instant of transmigration. It is also the first instant of the undevelopable condition of the soul. The vibratory activity is minimum, if the birth takes place after three turnings in transmigration. It is maximum if the birth follows a straight transmigration without any turning whatsoever. It should be noted that this birth-vibratory division is with reference to the developables also, because although they are partially developable, i. e., undevelopable in the first instant of their birth, yet they are under operation of develop e body-making Karma. They must become developable after an Antar-muhurta. pariNAmajogaThANA sarIrapajattagAdu carimotti / laddhiapajattANaM carimatibhAgamhi bodhavvA // 220 // pariNAmayogasthAnAni zarIraparyAptakAt carama iti / labdhyaparyAptakAnAM caramatribhAge boddhavyAni // 220 // 220, Changing-vibratory divisions (Parinama YogaSthana), are from (the last instant of the) completion of the capacity to develope the body (Sharira Paryapti) up to the last instant (of the age Karma).

Last one-third.-The age of a completely undevelopable soul is one-eighteenth part of a pulse-beat.

________________ GOMMATASARA. 183 The difference between the forces of a unit (Pradesha) of soul which has got minimum force and of another Pradesha which has got the least greater force than that of minimum force is called Avibhaga Pratichchheda. The minimum force in one Fradesha if measured by this Avibhaga Pratichchheda will be equal to innumerable times the units of universe. This minimum force is called Varga. The collecti of such Vargas is Vargana. The soul has got Pradeshas of minimum force which amount to innumerable basic area of universe. There fore the same number of Vargas-Vargana. This is called first Vargana. Collection of those Pradeshas of soul, each of which has got force greater by one Avibhaga Pratichchheda than that of the minimum force is second Vargana; but number of Vargas will be less in this Vargana by a common difference or Chaya, which is found by dividing the 1st Vargana by 2 Gunahanis. In this way the third, etc., Varganas will be greater in force but less in number by a common difference. In this way "innumerable part of basic area of universe" of Varganas make one first Spardhaka. Now all such Pradeshas or Vargas as have force greater by an Avibhaga Pratichchheda than the Pradesha or Varga in the last Vargana of the first Spardhaka will make the first Vargana of second Spardhaka. The number of Vargas will be less by a common difference. The following chart will show the lesser number of Varganas in each Spardhaka and Gunahani:1st (2nd 3rd 4th 5th Gunahani. 256 128 64 32 Here 3100 are the total Pradeshas 240 120 60 15 of the soul and nana-Gunahanis are 5. 224 14 Gunahani-ayama are 8.

The measure of increases of degrees of vibration from one vibratory division to another till the maximum vibratory division is equal to the number of spatial units in an innumerable part of a linear finger. Minimum vibratory division is found at the birth time of completely undevelopable fine common soul.

________________ GOMMATASARA. 135 232. We give the quantity of these (three kinds of) vibratory divisions of 14 soul-classes with regard to minimum and maximum (e. e.,) 84 (classes). Commentary. There are three kinds of vibratory divisions, (1) Upapada-Yoga Sthana- birth vibratory division, (2) Ekantanu-vriddhi Yoga Sthana, increasing vibratory divisions, (3) Parinama Yoga Sthana changing vibratory divisions.

The minimum and maximum duration of the continuing of a birth or increasing vibratory division is one instant. And of the others (i. e. of changing vibratory divisions) is (two) to 8 instants. Commentary. This is evident because the birth vibratory division is confined to the first instant of the birth; and an increasing vibratory division also lasts for one instant, because there is an increase in it every instant. A changing vibratory division lasts at least for 2 instants and its maximum duration is 8 instants. aTThasamayassa thovA ubhayadisAsuvi asaMkhasaMguNidA / causamayoti taheva ya uvariM tidusamayajoggA // 243 // aSTasamayasya stokA ubhayadizayorapi asaMkhya saMguNitAH / catuHsamaya iti tathaiva ca upari tridvisamayayogAH // 243 // 243.

Nature (Prakriti), and molecules (Pradesha) of bondage are caused by vibrations (Yoga); and duration (sthiti), and fruition (Anubhaga), by passions. In (the 11th stage of subsided delusion, Upshantamoha, where passion Karma exists in a passive condition and does not operate, i. e., is) not subject to modification, and in the 12th and 13th stages of destroyed, delusion, Kashina-moha, and vibratory omniscience, Sayoga Kevali, i. l., where the passions are) quite destroyed, there is no cause of duration-bondage ; and (in the 14th stage of non-vibratory omniscience there is no bondage). Commentary. What kinds of Karma and with how many molecules are bound to the soul is determined by its vibratory activity ; how long these molecules will continue to bind the soul and the strong or mild character of their fruition is determined by the passion which colours that vibratory activity. In the 11th stage passions are entirely subsided, i. e., although they exist, they settle down into non-operation. In the 12th stage they are entirely destroyed, i. e., they

________________ GOMMATASARA. entirely fall off from the soul. In the 13th stage also they are nonexistant, as binding the soul. In all these 3 stages, passion is either entirely absent or entirely inactive. Therefore the duration and fruition bondages which are due to passion do not arise. But in all the three stages, vibration (Yoga) exists, therefore Karmas are created. The duration is of the simplest and shortest kind, i. e., of one-instant only. The fruition also lasts only for one instant and is therefore necessarily very intense and concentrated. The nature Prakriti is also only of the pleasure-feeling class (Sata-vedaniya). The normal duration bondage (Sthiti Bandha) is for one-antar-muhurta. This does not take place here. Therefore it is said that there is no duration-bondage here. In the non-vibratory omniscience, i. e., the 14th stage, there is neither passion nor vibration and consequently there is none of the four kinds of bondages. It should be remembered that the 14th stage is of very short duration. It really means the transition of the perfect soul from its mundane condition to the condition of liberation. aftvaemiem AAnzimiu ?ila asafu | tehiM asaMkhe jaguNo payaDINaM saMgaho savvo // 258 // zreNyasaMkhyeyimAni yogasthAnAni bhavanti sarvANi / tairasaMkhyeyaguNaH prakRtInAM saMgrahaH sarvaH // 258 // 149 258. All vibratory divisions are an innumerable part of the basic line (of universe). And the collection (or number of) all the ultimate classes (Prakriti) of Karmas is an innumerable times of those. Commentary. Vibratory divisions are of three kinds, without-interval (Nirantara) and with interval (Santara) and mixed. They are an innumerable part of basic line of universe, but the ultimate classes of Karmas are those multiplied by innumerable times the innumerable spatial units of the universe. It is so, because there are innumerable kinds of thought-activities with reference to ignorance and intense or mild passions in mundane souls. Scriptural-knowledge-obscuring sub-class alone has many innumerable divisions, as the different kinds of knowledge due to their destructive-subsidence is of innumerable kinds.

________________ GOMMATASARA." 163 Commentary. Out of 148 sub-classes of 8 Karmas only 122 operate. 26 are not taken into consideration, with reference to operation. These 26 are the following sub-classes of the body-making Karma.5 bondage (Bandhana) 5 interfusion (Sanghata), and 6 of the 20 sub-divisions of touch, taste, smell and colour, because only one of each of these 4 operate at a time. The bondage and interfusion subclasses are bound and operate along with the five body sub-classes of the body-making Karma, they therefore are not counted separately. Out of these 122, nine operate in an exceptional way. They are mentioned in Gathas 261 and the 1st half of 262. The remaining 113 are dealt with in the last part of Gatha 262. dasa caurigi sattarasaM aha ya taha paMca ceva cauro ya / chacchakkaekkadugadugacodasa ugutiistersudyvidhiH||263|| daza caturekaM saptadaza aSTa ca tathA paJca caiva catasrazca / SaT SaTkaikadvikadvikaM caturdazaikonatriMzat trayodazodayavidhiH263 263.

Commentary. In the 12th stage of destroyed delusion, operation-cessation of 2 and 14 sub-classes is mentioned. It means that two sub-classes cease to operate in the last but one, and fourteen in the last instant, as given in Gatha 270. . This discription is in accordance with the view of the saint Vrishabhacharya, the author of Maha Dhavala which is also called Kashaya Prabhrita. paNa Navaigi sattarasaM aDa paMca ca caura chakka chacceva / igiduga solasa tIsaM bArasa udaye ajogaMtA // 264 // paJca navaikaM saptadazASTa paJca ca catasraH SaTkaM SaT caiva / ekadvikaM SoDaza triMzat dvAdaza udaye prayogAntAH // 264 //

________________ 164 THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS. 264. Five, nine, one, seventeen, eight, five, four, six, six, one, two, sixteen, thirty and twelve (cease to) operate (from the 1st stage) to the end of the non-vibratory omniscient (i. e., the 14th stage respectively). Commentary. This account of the operation-cessation of the sub-classes is according to the saint Bhutabali, the author of Dhavala. The de tailed exposition which follows is based upon this. It is worth noting that premature-operation (Udirna) of the sub-classes also ceases in the different stages. This premature operation-cessation is the same as the operation cessation for the 1st 6 stages except that the human age and pleasure and pain-feeling Karmas cease their premature-operation at the end of the sixth, although their operation goes on further. After the 6th stage, i. e., from the 7th onward up to the 13th the cessation of operation and premature-operation is different in the different stages as given in the chart below. In the 14th stage there is no premature operation. The premature-operation of the human age and the pleasure and pain-feeling sub-classes of Karmas ceases at the end of 6th stage of imperfect vows, because a saint with perfect vows, i. e., in the 7th and higher stage, is not subject to accidental or other similar premature-death. Also in the 7th and higher stages, which are stages of concentration, the soul does not feel pleasure or pain although they exist in the form of operation of the Karmas on their maturity. But there is no hastening of the maturity and therefore of operation. In other words there is no premature Avipaka, but only mature or Savipaka shedding or Nirjara of these three subclasses of Karmas in the 7th and the higher stages. The insensibility to pleasure and pain in these stages relates only to worldly feelings. The soul being in near touch with its own character feels the bliss which is its own eternal attribute and which is merely suppressed on account of the load of Karmas in Sansara.

Because in omniscient, the bondage of one instant duration of the pleasure (feeling Karma) is simultaneous with the operation of it, therefore the operation of the pain (feeling Karma), takes the same form as the pleasure feeling Karma. Commentary. In omniscients, pleasure-feeling Karma with highest intensity of fruition flows in and is shed off after operation at every instant, therefore the Karmic molecules of pain-feeling Karma of very mild fruition are submerged in the most pleasant fruition of pleasure feeling Karma. It is a rule that one of the two feeling Karmas can operate at one time; therefore no pain can ever be felt by the omniscients. edeNa kAraNeNa du sAdasseva duNiraMtaro udo| teNAsAdaNimittA parIsahA jiNavare Natthi // 275 // etena kAraNena tu sAtasyaiva tu nirantara udayaH / tenAsAtanimittAH parISahA jinavare na santi // 275 // 275.

(But there is) no (operation of) clouded right belief in (the stages where there is) subsidential or destructive (rightbelief); and in (the stages where there is) subsidential rightbelief (there do) not (operate the 5, i. e.,) the first three migratory forms, (i. e., all except celestial) and the two assimilative (body and limbs). Commentary. The above is explained by two supplementary Gathas* in the Sanskrit Commentary. Souls do not die in the 3rd or mixed stage, during vibration of the assimilative mixed with physical body, in the stages of destructive ladder, when ascending the first part of New thought-activity in the subsidential ladder, in the first subsidential right-belief, in the 7th hell Mahatamah having acquired the attribute of right-belief and continuing in it. 199 But in the Sanskrit Commentary page 475, Calcutta Edition, Mishra is translated potentially developable soul. Both the meanings seem correct, because the soul does not die either in the 3rd stage, or in the potentially developable condition. In this last condition the soul is really a developable soul, but the completion of the capacity to develope fully is effected in one antar muhurta and the condition of being potentially developable lasts within that Antar-muhurta only. If death should occur within that Antar-muhurta, the soul would be called not potentially developable, but completely undevelopable. And there is no death for one Antar-muhurta for a soul with second subsidential right-belief having come down to the 1st stage of wrong-belief and whose error-feeding passions have already been transformed into lesser passions. Also there is no death for a soul who is on the point of destroying the right-belief deluding Karma but has not completely destroyed it, so long as he does not become successful destructive-subsidential right-believer (Krit-kritya Vedaka Samyakdrishti). All these 8 steps (are) other than (death) occasions. * missAhArassayayA khavagA caDamANapaDhamapuvvA ya / paDhamuvasamayA tamatamaguNapaDivaNNA ya NaM marati // 1 // aNasaMjoge micche muhuttatotti Natthi maraNaM tu / kadakara NijjaM jAva du savvaparaTThANa aTThapadA // 2 //

________________ 200 THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS. Tu in the last line means that a soul which has already bound celestial age-Karma and then ascends the subsidential ladder and s up to the 11th stage, i.e., the top rung of the subsidential ladder, and then falls down, can die while descending to the 8th and after death in transmigration, it is in the 4th stage. In the above circumstances a soul has the second subsidential right-belief, and so there is the operation of the celestial migratory form only, i. e., its next birth can be only in the celestial condition. khAiyasammo deso gara eva jado tahiM Na tiriyAU / ujjovaM tiriyagadI tesiM ayadamhi vocchedo // 326 // kSAyikasamyag dezo nara eva yatastasmin na tiryagAyuH / udyotaH tiryaggatisteSAmayate vyucchedaH // 326 // 329.

In the non-assimilative (quest, i.e., in the 1st, 2nd or 4th stage in transmigration, in the 14th stage and in the 13th stage in the 3rd, 4th and 5th instants of omniscient overflow, the operation is) as in Karmic (body vibration, i. e., of 89). 203 Thus the operation of sub-classes in the quests, should be known. (All) this is told or described by Nemichandra, adored by Baldeo and Madhava Chandra. Commentary. There is a slight pun upon the name Nemi Chandra. The author seems to be very fond of it. It arises from the triple circumstances (1) that the temple in which the Great-Gommatasara was composed at the Hill Chandragiri at Shravanabelgola, contains a beautiful and impressive image of Lord Neminath, the 22nd Tirthankara. A representation of this temple and of the author preaching Gommatasara to Chamundaraya, the royal builder of the temple is given at page of XXXVIII Dravya Sangrah, S.B.J., Vol. I-1917; (2) that the author's name also was Nemi Chandra. As is well known, Lord Nemi Nath belonged to the clan of Yadavas in Kathiavara, during the time of the Pandavas. He was an elder cousin of the two brothers Baldeo and Krishna. Lord Nemi Nath was worshipped by these two brothers. Therefore the teaching in Gommatasara may be said to be the teaching of Lord Nemi Nath who was adored by Bal (i. e., Baldeo or Balbhadara) and Madhava Chandra (i.e., Krishna or Narayana), as every Tirthankara always preaches the same Jain Siddhanta or Truth. (3) And that it so chanced that our author had a brother who also bore the name of Baldeo, and a pupil whose name chanced to be Madhava Chandra, Traividyadeva. Both these paid great reverence to Nemi Chandra, Siddhanta Chakravarti. Thus the Gathas of Gommatasara are said to be by Nemi Chandra adored by Baldeo and Madhava Chandra.

In wrong belief, etc., (i. e., the first) 3 (stages of wrong-belief, downfall and mixed. there is existence of all the 148 sub-classes, but in the first), Tirthankara and assimilative (body and limbs) do not co-exist; (in the 2nd) all (these 3 do not exist at any time); and (in the 3rd) the Tirthankara (sub-class does not exist), (because) in the souls in which these sub-classes can exist, these stages are not possible. Commentary. Thus in one soul in the 1st stage there can be 147 or 146 at a time, in the 2nd, 145, in the 3rd 147 in existence. Although obviously 148 exist, in the first stage, in some souls collectively at a given time, but all the 148 sub-classes can not exist in one soul at one time. A soul in which the Tirthankara or assimilative body and limbs is in existence is never in the 2nd stage, i. e., it never falls down from right-belief to wrong-belief through the intervention of the second stage, on account of the operation of any of the 4 error-feeding passions. A soul in which the Tirthankara sub-class is in existence, can never touch the 3rd stage, to which a soul would not ascend, in the first instance, from the first stage, but which it may reach while falling down to it from the 4th, or during an ascent, after falling down from the 4th to the first. In other words the soul which has already bound the Tirthankara sub-class can never have mixed right and wrong-belief. cattArivi khettAiM AugabaMdheNa hoi sammattaM / aNuvadamahavvadAiMNa lahai devAugaM mottuM // 334 // caturNAmapi kSetrANAmAyuSkabandhena bhavati samyaktvam / aNuvratamahAvratAni na labhate devAyuSkaM muktvA // 334 // 334. Right-belief can arise on the bondage of (any of the) 4 ages in (any of the) 4 conditions. (But the soul) does not acquire the partial vows (of the 5th) and the full vows (of the 6th and 7th stages) except (when it binds) the celestial age-Karma. Commentary.

During the existence of hellish. sub-human or celestial age, ( there can be ) no partial vow, total vow, or destructive (ladder, stage, respectively). And the soul in (any of the four) vowless (partial vow, imperfect-vow, and perfect vow stages), at the end. of advanced-thought (attainment Anivritti Karana Labdhi) having simultaneously transformed the (4) error (feeding passions into the lesser passions), and then having passed successively the (numerable) many parts of advanced thought (attainment ), destroys respectively the wrongbelief, the mixed (right-and-wrong-belief), (clouded ) rightbelief. Commentary. Destructive right-belief (Kshayika Samyaktva) arises on the destruction of 7 sub-classes of Karmas, namely, the 4 error-feeding passions, wrong belief, mixed-right-andwrong-belief, and clouded-right-belief, in one of the four stages of vowless right-belief, partial vows, imperfectvows and perfect-vows, i. e., in the 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th stages. This destruction is effected through advanced thought-activity. called Anivritti- Karana, the third kind of the fifth Labdhi which is technically called Karana.
Page #271
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ 208 THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS. This attainment takes 3 forms, lower or initial thoughtactivity (Adhah-Karana), new-thought-activity (ApurvaKarana), and advanced-thought-activity (Anivritti Karana). It must be noticed that although the last two activities give their names respectively to the 8th and 9th stages, yet they are not confined to them. The two stages are so called, because the conduct deluding passions are subjected to subsidence or destruction in the 8th and 9th stages, peculiarly and especially, by the new and advanced thoughtactivity. This will be seen to be in the fitness of things, because a rise and entry into the 8th stage can be made only by a soul who has obtained perfect right-belief by the subsidence or destruction of the 7 sub-classes mentioned above, which include all the 3 sub-classes which vitiate right-belief. The initial thought-activity or Adhah-Karana for subsidence or destruction of the conduct-deluding passions begins and ends in the 7th stage. But these 3 thought activities also characterise the destruction of right-belief-deluding Karma, and the transformation of the error-feeding-passions into lesser passions in the 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th stage. These are also necessary for gaining subsidential rightbelief, at the end of the first stage, and the second subsidential right-belief in the 7th stage, The order in which the seven sub-classes are destroyed is as follows: After being successively subjected to the action of the initial, the new and the advanced-thought-activity, the four error-feeding-passions are transformed at the last instant of the advanced-thought-activity into the 12 lesser passions. The three-thought-activities commence action again, after an interval of one Antar-muhurta. The duration of each of these 3 as also of the total of the three is an Antar-muhurta varying from an Avali and 7

When the whole Antar-muhurta of this renewed advanced-thoughtactivity has elapsed, except one numerable part of it, then in this last numerable part the wrong belief, mixed and clouded belief sub-classes are successively destroyed. Thus it is, that the great destructive right belief, which is a sure and certain precursor of early Liberation is attained. 209 Thus in the 1st stage, there is existence of 148 subclasses. But Tirthankara sub-class is repugnant to the pair of assimilative body and limbs in this stage. Therefore, actually there is the existence only of 147 or 146 in a soul at a time. But the same soul may at one time have 146, and at some other, 147 in the first stage. For example, suppose a soul has 147 in existence; and having transformed the two assimilative body and limbs, it binds the hellish age, then rises to the 4th stage of vowless-right-belief, and there binds the Tirthankara Karma and then falls back to the 1st stage for going to the 2nd or 3rd hell, he would then have 146 in existence. In the second, none of the above three exist, i.e., there are only 145. .In the 3rd, 147, i. e., all the 148 except the Tirthankara exist. In the 4th, all the 148 exist, except in a destructive right-believer who has destroyed the 7 mentioned above and has 141 only. In the 5th, 147 or 140 exist as in the 4th stage minus the hellish age. In the 6th, there exist 146 or 139, as in 5th minus the sub-human age. In the 7th, 146 or 139, exist as in the 6th. In the 8th, in the subsidential ladder 145, exist, i. e., all except the hellish, sub-human and celestial ages but in a destructive right believer 138 exist and in the destructive ladder there exist 138, i. e., 145-the 7 mentioned above.

In effecting the subsidence (of the remaining twenty-one conduct-deluding passions there is a fixed order) as in destructive (ladder), but (the subsidence is in this order; common inclination, female inclination, then the first six minor passions, laughter, etc., male inclination, partial and total-vow-preventing anger, perfect-conductpreventing anger, partial and total vow-preventing pride, perfect conduct preventing pride, partial and total vowpreventing deceit, perfect conduct-preventing deceit, partial and total vow-preventing greed, perfect right-conductpreventing greed, but of the gross kind;-this is the order of subsidence in the ninth stage of subsidential ladder. In the tenth stage of the same ladder, there is the subsidence of the remaining perfect right conduct-preventing greed, i.e., of fine or slight greed (Sukhshama Lobha, viz.) between male (inclination) and perfect right-conduct preventing passions, the middle pairs (namely the partial and total vow-preventing passions) of anger etc. are successively subsided. Commentary. But when a Karma is bound, it must remain in that state for one Avali called Achalavali, that is for an Avali it remains unmoving (Achala) or fixed, i. e. it has no operation, subsidence or destruction. This is only for duration-bondage which is due to passion in which the minimum duration is one Antar muhurta, i.e., at least one Avali and one instant. But in the bondage merely due to vibrations, i. e., in the eleventh stage of subsidence and twelfth stage of destruction and thirteenth stage of vibratory omniscience there is only nominal duration of one instant, because the Karma comes to bind and operate, and leave the soul in the same instant. Thus there is no question of an Achalavali there.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ GOMMATASARA. . . 216 Now let us go back to the subsidence, of any of the twenty-one passions. This subsidence is only of the Karmas bound at least one Avali ago. What as to the matter bound within this Avali? The answer is that the subsidence of this matter will be effected later along with the subsidence of the matter of the other sub-classes which follow in the order given above. For example the matter of the Achlavali of male inclination will subside along with the subsidence of the partial and total vow-preventing anger.

(There is) no existence of Tirthankara in subhuman (condition). And in the hellish, etc. (i.e., in hellish, sub-human, human and celestial conditions); there is (existence) of three (except celestial), 44, and 3 (except hellish) ages (respectively). The existence in the remaining (quests) should be known according to the stages. Commentary. Age Karma is of two kinds: the one which we are consuming, viz, current (Bhujyamana); and the one which is bound for the next incarnation, viz. bound (Badhyamana). In the hellish condition, the 3 (ages) are: current hellish age and the bound subhuman aud human. In the sub-human, the 4 are:- the current subhuman, and all the four bound; In the human, the current human

But in any one soul in any one condition of existence there can be the existence of only two, its current age and the next age bound by it; although a hellish or celestial soul can bind only a human or sub-human age; and a human or sub-human soul can bind any one of all the four ages. oghaM vANeraiye Na surAU titthamatthi tadiyotti / chaTitti magussAU tirie oghaMNa titthayaraM // 346 // progha iva nairayike na surAyuH tIrthamasti tRtIya iti / SaSTha iti manuSyAyuH tirazci aogho na tIrthakaram // 346 // 346.

This is like the Visanyojana mentioned in note to Gatha 336, Visanyojana, Udvelna, and Sankramana are alike in this, that the matter of one sub-class of Karma is changed into that of another. But the difference is this that Visanyojana is effected only by means of the three special thought-activity attainments(Karana-labdhi; viz. Adhah Karana,lower thought-activity, Apurva Karana, new thoughtactivity, and Anivritti KaraNGa,advanced-thought-activity, see note to Gatha 336 above). In Udvelana the matter of the bound sub-class is. 80 to speak, unbound or twisted back and is then transformed into

In Sakramana there is neither the untwisting, nor the three special thought-activities but simple transformation of the matter of one into that of another sub-class. 221 N.-B.-No necessity of chart. In one to 4-sensed and earth, water and vegetable bodied there are 2 stages 1st and 2nd, in fire and air bodies only one stage of wrong-belief. hAradu sammaM missaM suraduga khArayacaukkamaraNukamaso / uccAgodaM maraNudugamuvvellijjati jIvehiM // 350 // AhAradvi samyaka mizraM suradvikaM nArakacatuSkamanukramazaH / uccai manudvikamudvelyante jIvaiH / / 350 / / 350.

________________ 222 THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS. Commentary. Thus a soul in all four conditions, in the wrong-belief stage and with painful thought-activity, having no existence of Tirthankara, hellish and celestial age Karmas, has the existence of 145. On untwisting the first two, viz., assimilative body and limbs, there is the existence of 143; again on untwisting the clouded-right belief, it retains 142; and then on untwisting the mixed belief, the existence is of 141. This is in their own place. In the one to four-sensed and in the earth, water, and vegetable embodiments 145 exist, but if there is untwisting of the first two, three, four, six or ten, then there is existence of 143, 142, 141 in the birth instant (Utpanna Sthana), and of 139 and 135 respectively in their own place (Sva Sthana). In the two, fire and air enbodiments, 144 exist, viz., all the 148 except the four, Tirthankara, hellish, celestial and human age. And on untwisting the first two, three, four, six or ten, in the birth instant (Utpanna Sthana), they have the existence of 142, 141, 140, 138, 134. On further untwisting in their own places of the high family or of high family and the human condition and migratory form they have existence of 133 and 131 respectively. The last two existences of 133 and 131 are also found in the birth instant (Utpanna Sthana) of one, two, three and four-sensed and earth, water, and vegetable embodiment. The one-sensed, etc., refer to the sense-quest and earth, etc., to the embodiment-quest. puNNakArasajoge sAhArayamissagevi saguNoghaM / vegguzviyamissevi ya Navari Na mANusatirikkhAU // 352 // pUrNaikAdazayoge sAhArakamizrakopi svaguNaudhaH / vaigUrvikamipi ca navari na maanusstirygaayuH|| 352 // 352.

Having bowed to (Lord) Vardhamana (the 24th Tirthankara) gold like and adored by the King of celestials (i. e., by Indra), I shall speak of existence places of the sub-classes with (their) divisions in the stages. Commentary. Here Sattva Sthana or existence place means the number of subclasses which can exist in a soul at a time at a given instant. This number may remain the same, but sub-classes forming the number may change. The different ways in which this can happen are called the different divisions (or Bhangas) of existence.

Note 1. But there is no beginning to bind the Tirthankara Karma in a soul, with a current human age and the next bound human or sub-human age. Note 2.-A human soul who has bound the next celestial age, and is in the 4th, 5th, 6th or 7th stage, never falls down to the first. Note 3.- A hellish soul, who has bound the next human age, and has also Tirthankara Karma in existence, is never in this stage of wrong-belief for 6 months before death, as the ceremonies of conception begin in the Middle Region for those 6 months. Such a soul has the existence of 146, but is in the 4th stage for the 6 months.

________________ 246 THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS. Note that, Non-bound is just one less than the bound. There are 40 existence places and 120 divisions. The number of divisions in each place is given below the number of existing sub-classes in each. The numbers in five places in the first row are with reference to the existence of Tirthankara Karma. The first place refers to all souls except sub-humans which have no existence of Tirthankara Karma, and have existence of 146 (148-sub-human and any other age). It has 4 divisions-(1) human age current, hellish age bound; (2) human age current, celestial age bound; (3) hellish age current, human age bound; (4) celestial age current, human age bound. It is noticeable that in these 4 divisions 2 same ages occur twice, and therefore in giving the number of divisions, only two are counted. The second place has 142 (148-4 error-feeding passions, sub-human age and any other age). The third place has 141 (142-wrong-belief). The 4th place has 140 (141-mixed belief). The 5th place has 139 (140-clouded-belief). Each of these four places has got 2 divisions only--(1) human age current, hellish age bound; (2) human age current, celestial age bound. As to five places of non-bound age Karma of the first row, the number is the same as in bound places minus bound-age Karma; but the divisions in each of the first two of 145 and 141, are three having regard to current hellish, human and celestial ages. The third place of 140 has one division of current human age. The 4th place of 139 has 3 divisions havia regard to current hellish, human or celestial age. A human who has begun destruction of deluding Karma, but has not completed it, can die and be born in hellish or celestial condition. The fifth place of 138 (viz. 148 minus 3 ages, and 7 Karmas preventing right-belief) has also 3 divisions with reference to current human, celestial and hellish ages. The soul with 138 is a destructive right-believer with Tirthankara Karma. He can either be a Tirthankara in current human age, in cases where he has bound Tirthankara Karma, with celebrations of at most three auspicious occasions of adoption of aus. terity, perfect knowledge and liberation; or he may go to heaven or hell and become Tirthankara in third birth as a man. Till six months before the expiry of their life-period, he will remain with-out bondage of human age; and will have existence of 138 sub-classes. - The five places of the second row have Tirthankara Karma less in each. In the 2 places of 145 and 141 there are twelve divisions in each, like that in the place of 145 in wrong belief stage, but only five are counted (vide (3.) B. 2 in chart of wrong-belief). Each of the 3rd and 4th places of 140 and 139 has 4 divisions, i. e., current
Page #310
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
________________ :: GOMMATASARA.... 247 human age, and bound all the four ages. Here only 3 are counted ving current human age and bound human age. The 5th place 138 has 7 divisions (1) current hellish, and bound human age; (2) current sub-human and bound celestial age; (3) current human and bound hellish age; (4) current human and bound sub-human age: (5) both current and bound human age; (6) current human and bound celestial age; (7) current celestial and bound human age. Leaving out divisions which contain the samage, as current and bound and the same two ages again, only four divisions are counted. Each of the first two places of non-boundage in the second row 144 and 140, has 4 divisions, with reference to current four ages. The third place of 139 has only one division of current human age. Each of the 4th and 5th places of 138 and 137 has each four divisions with reference to current four ages. All the ten places of the third row have the same number of divisions as the ten places of the first row, while the ten places of the fourth row have the same 37 divisions as ten places of the second row. Thus there are altogether 120 divisions in 40 different places of existence of Karma sub-classes in vowless right-belief stage. desatiyesuvi evaM bhaMgA ekeka desagassa puNo / paDirAsi bidiyaturiyassAdIbidiyammi do bhaMgA // 382 // dezatrayeSvapi evaM bhaGgA ekaikaM dezakasya punH| pratirAzi dvitIyacaturthasyAdidvitIyasmin dvau bhaGgau // 382 // 382. Similarly in (each of) the three (stages of) partial (vow, imperfect vow and perfect vow), (there are 40 places like those in vowless stage, but each place has) only one division; (there are) however, two divisions in each group of the first two places of second and fourth (row), in the (partial vow stage ). Commentary. In the partial vow stage, in the bound places of 145 and 141 and non bound places 144 and 140 of second row, and in bound places of 141 and 137 and non-bound places of 140 and 136 in the fourth row each has two divisions, bound ones have 1) current human age and bound celestial age. (2) Current sub-human age and bound celestial age. Non-bound ones have current human and sub-human age. The remaining bound places in partial vow and all 20 bound places in the 6th and 7th stages have each one division current human age

( In the three places of the second row, Tirthankara Karma should be deducted from each of the 3 places of the first row and in the three places of the third row deduct from each place of the first row, 4 Karmas, i. e., assimilative body and limbs, bondage and interfusion, and in the three places of the fourth row deduct from each place of the first row five viz. Tirthankara and 4 assimilative). (These 12 places) have each one division. (The same for non-bondage, 12 places).

Each (of the above places has) one division, but among the four places (of the four rows where) common sex-inclination has been destroyed, (there are) two divisions in (one place) in each of the second and fourth (rows in which there is) no (existence) of Tirthankara. thI purisodayacaDi de puvvaM saMDhaM khavedi thI asthi / saMdarasudaye puvvaM thIkhavidaM saMDhamatthitti // 388 // 98

(This is so, because the soul) ascending (to destructive ladder), with operation of female or male (inclination), first destroys the common (inclination), (then there) is the existence of female (sex in the two places); (and the soul rising with) operation of common (sex inclination), first destroys the female (sex), (therefore there) is existence of common (sex in the aforesaid two places). Commentary. Thus there are thirty six places and thirty eight divisions in advanced thought-activity stage of destructive ladder and there are 24 places and 24 divisions in this stage of subsidential ladder. 62 divisions in all are thus possible in the 9th stage. The common or feminine inclination is destroyed in the 4th or 5th place of each row just as the soul rises in the destructive ladder with male or female inclination or with common inclination. It is with reference to the second and fourth row, where Tirthankara sub-class does not . exist that we have the two extra divisions. aNiyaTTicarimaThANA cattArivi ekahINa suhmss| te igidoSiNavihINaM khINassavi hoti ThANANi // 386 // anivRtticaramasthAnAni catvAryapi ekahInaM sUkSmasya / tAni ekadvivihInaM kSINasyApi bhavanti sthAnAni // 386 // 389. The last place (of each of the four rows) of the advanced thought-activity (stage should be taken) in (the 10th stage of)slightest(delusion),after deducting one (deceit from each). (Thus we have 4 places of 102, 101, 98, and 97 with 4 divisions there). The places of (the 12th stage) of destructive (delusion) are the same after deducting .one (greed up to last but one instant; and four places again after deducting therefrom) two (i. e., sleep and drowsiness). (Thus we have eight places in the 12th stage having 101, 100, 97, 96, 99, 98, 95 and 94. The divisions are eight).

________________ 252 THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS. Commentary. In all the four stages of destructive ladder, and the two stages of omniscience, there is only current human age, and no age-Karma is bound; because the soul will be liberated from the same body. Therefore there can be only one division in each place having reference to non-bondage of age-Karma. te codasaparihINA jogissa jogicarimagevi puNo / bAvattarimaDasaddhiM dusu dusa hIsu dugadugA bhaMgA // 330 // tAni caturdazaparihInAni yogina ayogicaramakepi punaH / dvAsaptatiraSTaSaSTiH dvayordvayoH hInayoH dvikadvikau bhaGgAH // 360 // 390. The (last four places of the 12th stage) after deducting(from each) fourteen (sub-classes, viz. five knowledge, and four conation-obscuring and five obstructive are taken) in (each of the 13th stage) of vibratory (omniscient ) and (the 14th stage) of non-vibratory (omniscient) till the last (but the two instants ). ( Thus we have 4 places having 85, 84, 81 and 80 sub-classes with 4 divisions for thirteenth and fourteenth stages, till the last but two instants). (In the last but one instant of the 14th stage, the first) two places will (each) be reduced by seventy-two, (and the other) two, (places) by sixty-eight (viz., 72 minus four assimilative). ( Thus there are four places of 13, 12, 13, 12. As two of the four places contain the same number of sub-classes, only two places should be counted) . ( At the end of the 14th stage, there are only two places of 13 and 12), each with two divisions, (because some have operation of pain-bearing and others of pleasure-bearing feeling Karma in each. Thus there are two places with four divisions). rAtthi aNaM utrasamage khavagApuvvaM khavittu aTThA ya / pacchA solAdI khavaNaM idi keI khiddiddhaM // 361 // nAsti anamupazamake kSapakApUrvaM kSapayitvA aSTau ca / pazcAt SoDazAdInAM capaNamiti kairnirdiSTam // 361 //

________________ GOMMATASARA. 391. There is no existence of (four) error-feeding (passions) in subsidential ladder, and those (in the 9th stage) of destructive ( ladder) first destroy eight (partial vow-preventing and total vow-preventing passions) and then destroy the (other) sixteen (sub-classes). This has been said by some (saints). 253 Commentary. According to the view in the above Gatha four of bondage and four of non-bondage places will be deducted from the 24 mentioned above. The subsidentials will then have only 16 places instead of 24. ayi guiNahANe mAyArahidaM ca ThANamicchati / ThANA bhaMga pamANA keI evaM parUveMti // 362 // anivRtti guNasthAne mAyArahitaM ca sthAnamicchanti / sthAnAni bhaGgapramANAni kecidevaM prarUpayanti // 362 // 392. Some describe (four places) by absence of deceit (also) in the advanced thought-activity stage.

(There are) eighteen, four, and eight places in the three wrong-belief (downfall and mixed stages respectively; and) after this for four stages (i. e., in the 4th 5th, 6th and 7th, each has ) forty (places ). In the three (stages), of subsidential (ladder, and) in (11th stage of) subsided delusion each has sixteen places; (and from the 8th stage of destructive ladder till the 14th there are four, forty, four, eight, four and six places respectively). pakAraM chakkadi vIsa sayaM dAla dusu tAlaM / vIsaDatiraNaM vIsaM solaTTha ya cAri zradveva // 364 //

(There are) fifty, eleven, square of six (viz., 36), one hundred and twenty. forty eight, forty in each of two, .. twenty thirty-eight plus 20, i.e. 58), twenty, sixteen, eight, four, and eight (divisions respectively in fourteen stages). Commentary. The difference between what has been said here and described before is as follows: (1) In downfall stage, 12 places have been said before, here there is one less, as a soul with second subsidential rigat-belief having a bondage of celestial age coming down to downfall stage will not die here. (2) In the eighth stage, 24 places have been described before in subsidential ladder. Only 16 have been mentioned here, by deducting 8 places having reference to existence of four error-f passions in bondage, and non-bondage, each. There are four places in the destructive ladder. Thus 20 have been mentioned here. (3) In the 9th stage only 16 instead of the 24 mentioned before have been taken for subsidential ladder and after adding the 36 mentioned above and the four mentioned here in connection with absence of deceit, there are altogether 56 places and 53 divisions. (4) In the 10th stage, only 16 instead of 24 as above for subsidential and 4 for destructive; 20 places in all, have been mentioned. (5) In the 11th stage, only 16 instead of 24 have been mentioned. evaM sattahANaM savittharaM variNayaM mae sammaM / jo paDhai suNai bhAvai so pAvai Nivvudi sokkhaM // 365 // evaM sattvasthAna savistaraM varNitaM mayA samyak / yaH paThati zRNoti bhAvayati sa prApnoti nivRtiM saukhyam // 36 // 395.

As a Chakravarti (monarch) conquers the six parts (of the Bharata Kshetra ) with (his) Chakra ( superhuman weapon) without any hindrance, so the six-fold (treatise) has been properly mastered by me with the Chakra of intelligence. 255 Commentary. Here the author Shri Nemichandra refers to the six-fold treatise, given in Dhavala, Java Dhavala and Maha Dhavala, the great scriptures in Prakrit and Sanskrit with 72,000, 60,000 and 40,000 Shlokas, respectively, still in manuscript at Mudbidree (South Canara), on which this Gommatasara is based.
