## Chapter 10 of Samantabhadra Bharati: The Flawed Nature of Both Extremes and the Incompatibility of the Two
**Verse 17:** Those who oppose Syadvada and Nyaya cannot prove the non-contradiction of the two extremes of bondage due to great ignorance and liberation due to little knowledge. Therefore, due to mutual contradiction, they cannot be considered as two extremes. Even if one accepts the extreme of "unspeakable," it is not appropriate to say "unspeakable" because it contradicts the previous statement.
**Verse 98:** The faultless explanation of bondage and liberation due to ignorance and little knowledge is as follows: Bondage occurs due to ignorance accompanied by delusion, which is characterized by the nature of karma and is capable of producing its own results. Ignorance devoid of delusion is not the cause of bondage. Liberation occurs due to little knowledge devoid of delusion; however, little knowledge accompanied by delusion leads to bondage.
**Verse 99:** The cycle of existence is diverse in form, and the bound soul is purified according to the bondage of karma. The diversity of impurities is of two types: the karma-bondage that is in accordance with the origin of desires, etc., and the bondage of substance and karma. Souls are purified or impure according to their own causes.
