[8122 8776 Is this *praसंख्यात* or *apraसंख्यात*? It is said that it is *praसंख्यात* because it is experienced. Why? Because
it is like its name. ||220 8776. The result of *jnanaavaran* is the absence of knowledge, and the result of *darshanavaran* is the obstruction of the power of perception. Thus, from the indication of the meaningful names of all the *karma* natures, with their sub-categories, the knowledge of their experience arises.
8777. It is said, if the result is accepted as experience, then does the experienced *karma* remain like an ornament, or does it fall away like the essence that has been drunk? To this, it is said,
Therefore, there is *nirjara*. ||23|| 8778. Just as the waste of rice etc. is eliminated and becomes *nirjina*, similarly, by giving good and bad results to the soul, the destruction of the previously attained state, due to the absence of that state, is the *nirjara* of *karma*. It is of two types: *vipakaja* and *avipakaja*. In that, for the being who has wandered for a long time in the great ocean of *samsara*, consisting of four *gatis* and many types of *jati*, when the time for the ripening of good and bad *karma* arrives, and the stream of the *anubhavodayavali* enters, the cessation of the *karma* after giving its result is *vipakaja nirjara*. The *karma* whose time for ripening has not yet arrived, but which is experienced by being forcibly brought into the *anubhavodayavali* by the power of a particular *aupakramika kriya*, like the ripening of mangoes and jackfruit, is *avipakaja nirjara*. The word 'c' indicates the collection of other causes. 'By *tapas* there is also *nirjara*'. This will be said later, therefore, the purpose of giving the word 'c' is that *nirjara* occurs in the way mentioned earlier, and also in other ways.
Doubt: Here, the mention of *nirjara* is in 1. *nasya phalam mu*. 2. *bhutam kima -mu*. 3. *ganite a*, *di. 1*, *di. 2*.
