## Samantabhadra-Bharati
[Chapter 1] Now, let's see how the system of auspicious-inauspicious karma, karma-phala, happiness-suffering, birth-death (loka-paraloka), and bondage-liberation cannot be established in the views of such self-and-other-enemy, one-sided thinkers. The matter is quite clear: since all these systems are dependent on Anekanta - without the support of Anekanta, these seemingly contradictory relative states cannot form any independent reality or system - therefore, those who are averse to Anekanta - who hold animosity towards the Anekanta principle - cannot have these systems well-established in their views.
The denial of Anekanta leads to the denial of order-disorder; because order-disorder is inherently connected with Anekanta. When Anekanta itself is absent, how can the system of order-disorder be established? Just as there can be no system of qualities-modifications in the absence of substance, and no system of Sheesham, Jamun, Neem, Mango, etc. in the absence of a tree, similarly, there can be no system of order-disorder in the absence of Anekanta.
The absence of the system of order-disorder leads to the denial of अर्थक्रिया (arthakriya); because अर्थक्रिया is inherently connected with order-disorder. And in the absence of अर्थक्रिया, karma, etc. cannot be established; because karma, etc. are inherently connected with अर्थक्रिया. When auspicious-inauspicious karma itself cannot be established, then how can their fruits, happiness-suffering, the realm of fruit-enjoyment, birth-death (loka-paraloka), and the matter of being bound and liberated from karma be established?
In essence, without the support of Anekanta, all these auspicious-inauspicious karma, etc. become unsupported, and therefore, in the views of one-sided thinkers who believe in eternalism, etc., there cannot be any proper system of these. If they believe in these and want to acquire good karma through practices like penance, etc., and enjoy their good fruits, or want to be liberated from karma, then they hinder their own desires by opposing Anekanta, and in this way, they prove themselves to be self-and-other-enemies.
