CHAPTER VIII
175
apadikkamaņas duviham davve bhāve taha apaccakkhānam . eenuvaeseņa ya akārao vaņņio ceyā (285)
अप्रतिक्रमणं द्विविधं द्रव्ये भावे तथाप्रत्याख्यानम् ।

The causal relation therefore exists between the material aspect and the psychical aspect and these two aspects of apratikramana. " and apratyākhyāna since they imply the operation of material karmas and the appearance of psychic karma have no relation to the pure Self of the nature of consciousness. Hence the pure Self cannot be considered as the causal agent of these two types of
