The place where it is performed should be secluded, peaceful and devoid of living beings.
_ It is an attempt to move towards *dravya-kayotsarga* and *bhava-kayotsarga*. *Dravya* is gross, it moves from grossness to subtlety. In *dravya-kayotsarga*, external objects are abandoned, such as - abandoning *upadhi*, abandoning *bhakta-pan* etc., but in *bhava-kayotsarga*, three things are necessary - *kashaya-vyutsarga*, *sansara-vyutsarga* and *karma-vyutsarga*.
In *kashaya-vyutsarga*, all four types of *kashayas* are avoided. *Krodha* is conquered by *kshama*, *mana* by *vinaya*, *maya* by *saralata* and *lobha* by *santosha*.
In *sansara-vyutsarga*, the world is abandoned. The world is of four types - *dravya-sansara*, *kshetra-sansara*, *kala-sansara* and *bhava-sansara*. *Dravya-sansara* is of four *gati* forms. *Kshetra-sansara* is in the form of *adhah*, *urdhava* and *madhya* lokas. *Kala-sansara* is from one time to the time of *pudgala-paravartan*. *Bhava-sansara* is the form of the soul's attachment to objects, which is the root cause of worldly wandering. *Dravya*, *kshetra*, *kala* sansara cannot be abandoned. In *Acharanga*, it is said - those who are the objects of the senses, they are truly the world
and the soul attached to them wanders in the world. In *Agam* literature, the word 'sansara-kantare' is used here and there. Which means - the four *gati* forms of the world are the shores. To abandon the root causes of worldly wandering. To abandon *mithyatva*, *avrata*, *pramada*, *kashaya* and *ashubha* yoga is *sansara-vyutsarga*.
The *kayotsarga* performed to destroy the eight types of *karmas* is called *karma-vyutsarga*. The various types of *kayotsarga* that have been described have been classified from the physical point of view and from the point of view of thought. From the point of view of purpose, *kayotsarga* has been divided into two types - *cheshta-kayotsarga* and *abhibhava-kayotsarga*.
_ *Cheshta-kayotsarga* is performed for the purification of defects. When the *shraman* goes out for *shaucha*, *bhiksha* etc. and there is a tendency towards *nidra* etc., this *kayotsarga* is performed for the purification of the defects that arise in it. *Abhibhava-kayotsarga* is performed in two situations - firstly, to concentrate the mind for *atma-chintan* for a long time or for *atma-shuddhi*, and secondly, in the event of a crisis. Such as revolution, fire, famine etc. The time of *cheshta-kayotsarga* is based on *uchchvasa*. This *kayotsarga* is performed in various situations for 8, 25, 27, 300, 500, and 1008 *uchchvasas*. The time of *abhibhava-kayotsarga* is the least *antar-muhurta* and the best is one year. *Bahubali* performed *kayotsarga* for one year.
1. There, the body is free from desire, standing like a pillar, with arms hanging down, well-versed in meditation, with a raised and bent body, enduring all kinds of hardships, standing in a place devoid of living beings, desiring the destruction of *karma*, in a secluded place.
- *Mularadhana* 2-113, *Vijayoday* p. 278-279 2. In this world, there are four types of *sansara*, abandon them -
*Dravya-sansara*, *kshetra-sansara*, *bhava-sansara*, *kala-sansara*. - *Sthananga* 4,12,61 3. Which qualities are attached to it.
- *Acharanga* 1/1/5 4. That *utsarga* is of two types, *abhibhava* and *nayavya*.
The first is for the purification of *utsarga* in *bhiksha-riya*, the second is for the purification of *utsarga*. - *Aavashyak-niyukti*, verse 1452 5. (a) There, *cheshta-kayotsarga* is from eight to twenty-five to twenty-seven to three hundred to five hundred to one thousand and eight *uchchvasas*.
*Abhibhava-kayotsarga* is from *muhurta* to one year, like *Bahubali*. - *Yoga-shastra* 3, page 250 (b) *Antar-muhurta* is the least time for *kayotsarga*, one year is the best.
