right-belief of creatures here capable of emancipation which is dependent on the teaching of gurus, that is said to originate in external instruction. It is five-fold : aupaśamika (which arises from suppression of karma); sāsvādana (which has just a flavor of right-belief); kşayopaśamika (which arises from combined suppression and destruction of karma); vedya (feeling), and kṣāyika (which arises from destruction of karma). Of these, the aupaśamika arises at the first acquisition of right-belief by a creature whose knot of karma has been cut, and lasts for an antarmuhūrta. There is also a second aupaśamika,268 produced by suppression of delusion, from the mounting of the upaśamaśreņi by one whose delusion is suppressed. The right-belief-thought-activity, lasting six āvalis as maximum and one samaya as minimum, of the psychical condition of right-belief abandoned and wrong-belief present of a creature who has the worst degree of passions uprisen, is called sāsvādana.250 The third, arising from combined destruction and suppression of wrong-belief, belongs to one who has thought-activity from the rising of right-beliefmatter.260 The right-belief of one who has ascended the kşapakaśreņi,261 destruction of the worst type of passions having taken place, complete perishing of wrong-belief and mixed belief having taken place, who is approaching kṣāyika-right-belief, who is enjoying the last particle of
of wrong.belief karma into that of short and long duration. K.G. II, p. 57b.

259 603. This exists only in second guṇasthāna.
280 604. This exists in gunasthānas 4-II, and has a minimum duration of an antarmuhūrta, and a maximum of 66+ sāgaropamas.
261 605. This must refer to the ladder for destruction of darśana. mohanīyakarma, not caritramnohanīya.
