Due to the specifics of the Tattvarthasutra, the countless karma-nirjaras continue to increase. Thus, as they accumulate, ultimately in the state of omniscience, the amount of nirjara becomes the highest. In the present gradation of karma-nirjara, the lowest level has the right vision (samyak-darshan) and the highest has the total (sarva-sam) vision. The forms of these ten states are as follows:
1. The state in which right perception (samyak-darshan) manifests, is called "samyak-darshan."
2. The one in which the partial renunciation (tyaga) manifests due to the reduction of the obscuring (apratyakshana) karma, is called "shravaka."
3. The one in which complete renunciation manifests due to the reduction of the obscuring karma, is called "virata."
4. The one in which purification sufficient to eliminate the infinite-binding (anantānubandhī) karma manifests, is called "anantavijaya."
5. The one in which purification to eliminate the delusion of vision (darshan-moha) manifests, is called "darshan-moha-kshapaka."
6. The state in which the remnants of the delusion (moha) are subdued is called "upashamaka." The state in which that subdual is complete, is called "upashantamah."
8. The state in which the remnants of delusion are being eliminated is called "kshapaka."
9. The state in which that elimination is complete and accomplished is called "kshina-moha."
10. The state in which total realization is manifested is "Jin."
Now, what are the distinctions of the nigganthas? The five types of nigganthas are: Pulaka, Bakush, Kushila, Nigganth, and Snataka.
