the 8th; Advanced-thought-activity, the 9th; Slightest-delusion, the 10th; and Delusionless, (Kshína-Moha) the 12th. Note that in this ascent, the soul does not touch the 11th stage, which is the peculiar and direct effect of the subsidential-thought-activity; but goes from the 10th direct to the 12th stage, delusionless. This is the effect of destroying the deluding Karma which can no more rise to delude the soul. Therefore, evidently, there can be no fall from this stage: once arrived here. the soul must rise to the 13 then having all but exhausted the age Karma, (Ayuh), hasten through the 14th stage in which it drops off all vestiges of matterin the form of the 4 non-destructive Karmas, and attains final and everlasting liberation, मिच्छोदयेण मिच्छत्तमसदहणं तु तच्चअत्थाणं ।
एयंतं विबरीयं विणयं संसयिदमण्णाणं ॥ १५ ॥ मिथ्यात्वोदयेन मिथ्यात्वमश्रद्धानं तु तत्त्वार्थानाम् । एकान्तं विपरीतं विनयं संशयितमज्ञानम् ॥ १५ ॥
15. (The delusion stage) or wrong. belief thoughtactivity (Mithyátva) is caused by the operation of the wrong-belief, (Mithyátva) sub-class of the right-belief-deluding Karma. It consists in not having belief in things as they are (Tattvārtha) (i. e., the seven Principles, Tattvas of Jainism). Wrong-belief is of 5 kinds :
(1) One-sided belief (Ekanta). (2) Perverse belief (Viparita). (3) Veneration (of false creeds-Vinaya). (4) Doubtful belief (Samshaya).
(5) Indiscriminate belief (Ajnána). एयंत बुद्धदरसी विवरीओ बह्म तावसो विणओ। इंदो विय संसइयो मकडिओ चेव अण्णाणी ॥१६॥ एकान्तो बुद्धदर्शी विपरीतो ब्रह्म तापसो विनयः। इन्द्रोपि च संशयितो मस्करी चैवाज्ञानी ॥ १६ ॥
