And wonderfully, it holds a uniformity. This uniformity is associated with different branches, shaped in distinct definitions, and although less developed in those branches, it essentially reflects the same lineage of the Arya community.
The main points of Charitrāmīṃsā are eleven:
Sixth chapter: 1. The nature of passions, their types, and the karmas associated with various types of practitioners.
Seventh chapter: 2. The nature of vows, the types of officials who take vows, and the means for the stability of vows; 3. The nature of defects such as violence; 4. Potential obstacles in vows; 5. The nature of donations and the purposes of their variances.
Eighth chapter: 6. The main purposes of karmic bondage and the types of karmic bondage.
Ninth chapter: 7. Samvara and its various methods and distinctions; 8. Nirjarā and its method; 9. Different types of practitioners with distinct authorities and the variances in their limitations.
Tenth chapter: 10. The purposes of Kevalajñāna and the nature of moksha; 11. A description of how the liberated soul attains its destination.
Comparison: The description of character in Tattvārtha differs from that in Charitrāmīṃsā, as it does not discuss passions, samvara, and so forth, like Tattvārtha does; it solely pertains to the state of the monk, and that too specifically applicable to the Digambara monk.
