SAMAYASARA
तं खलु जीवणिबद्धं कम्मइयवग्गणागयं जइया ।
तइया दु होदि हेदू जीवो परिणामभावाणं ॥ १३६॥
tam khalu jivaṇibaddhaṁ kammaiyavaggaṇāgayaṁ jaiyā taiya du hodi hedu jīvo pariņāmabhāvāṇaṁ (136)
तत्खलु जीवनिबद्धं कार्मणवर्गणागतं यदा ।
तदा तु भवति हेतुर्जीवः परिणामभावानाम् ॥ १३६ ॥
132 to 136. Know ye, that if there is in the Self knowledge of things that are not real, it is due to the operation of nescience (karmic materials interfering with right knowledge); absence of belief in the reals is due to the operation of mithyatva karma; impure cognitive activity in the Self is due to the rise of kaşaya (soul-soiling karmas), non-discipline in the Self is due to the rise of conduct perverting karma; the tendency to act through thought, word, and deed is due to the rise of yoga (or the psycho-physical structure). Know ye, that everything that ought to be done is good and everything that ought to be discarded is bad. Thus conditioned by the primary karmic materials, are produced the eight types of karmic psychic dispositions such as jñānavaraṇīya (knowledge-obscuring). And thus when the eight types of karmic materials bound to the Self begin to operate, there arise in the Self corresponding psychic dispositions of which the Self is the causal agent.
COMMENTARY
Thus it is emphasised once again that the various psychic modifications in the Self are caused by nescience and that these impure modifications can be got rid of only by true knowledge.
Next it is said from the real point of view that the various manifestations of the Self are entirely different from those of material karmas.
जीवस्स दु कम्मेण य सह परिणामा हु होंति रागादी । एवं जीवो कम्मं च दोवि रागादिमावण्णा ॥ १३७॥
jivassa du kammeņa ya saha pariņāmā hu hoṁti rāgādī evam jivo kammam ca dovi rāgādimāvanṇā (137)
