SAMAYASARA.
जह्मा दु अत्तभावं पोग्गलभावं च दोवि कुव्वंति ॥ तेरा दुमिच्छादिट्ठी दोकिरियावादियो होति ॥ ६२ ॥ यस्मात्त्वात्मभावं पुद्गलभावं च द्वावपि कुर्वति । तेन तु मिथ्यादृष्टयो द्विक्रियावादिनो भवति ॥ ६२ ॥

They who hold the view that conscious soul is the root cause of both the conscious and unconscious material modifications are wrong-believers. Their opinion means identification of soul with matter. They do not recognise the essential, eternal, and ineradicable distinction of soul from non-soul, i.e., from matter. They are closely in touch with material things and material consequences. They cannot see that these worldly things are material, born of matter and can in no way be caused by the soul, which is conscious, non-matter.

Commentary.
Here the author points out the correct view that when material Karmas, such as deluding, knowledge-obscuring, conationobscuring, obstructive Karmas produce their effects, the thought activities of a mundane soul are of themselves impure, as born of ignorance, wrong belief, passions, etc. When pleasure-feeling Karmas make possible the company of agreeable objects, the being effected in attachment to them by operation of deluding Karmas,
