## 34] [Prajñāpanā Sūtra (3) Vedaniyakarma - Karma that causes the experience (vedanā) of the objects of the senses is called Vedaniyakarma / The experience of pleasure and pain that the soul undergoes due to Vedaniyakarma is the sensory experience of pleasure and pain. The natural experience of pleasure that the soul has does not arise from karma-udaya. Its nature is like licking the honey-coated edge of a sword. It has two main types: (1) Sātāvedaniyā - Karma whose udaya causes the soul to experience pleasure related to sense objects is called Sātāvedaniyakarma / (2) Asātāvedaniyā - Karma whose udaya causes the soul to experience pain in obtaining favorable objects and unfavorable sense objects is called Asātāvedaniyā / Sātāvedaniyā has variations in its text like manojña words, etc., and conversely, Asātāvedaniyā also has variations in its text like amonojña words, etc. / Their meaning has been written before. (4) Mohaniyakarma - Just as a person intoxicated by alcohol forgets his own welfare, similarly, karma whose udaya causes the jīva to lose the intelligence to recognize and discern his true nature and welfare, and even if he gains the intelligence to discern welfare, he does not gain the ability to act accordingly, is called Mohaniyakarma / It has two main divisions - Darshanamohaniya and Charitramohaniya / Darshanamohaniya - To understand a substance as it is, in its true form, to have faith in Tattvārtha is called Darshan. Karma that destroys (praāvṛt) this personal Darshanaguna of the soul is called Darshanamohaniya. Charitramohaniya - To attain the nature of the soul or to delight in it is Charitra, or the result of the soul in the form of withdrawal from the world with caution and engagement in nirāvadyayoga is Charitra. Karma that destroys this Charitraguna of the soul is called Charitramohaniya. _ Darshanamohaniyakarma has three divisions - Samyaktva Vedaniyā, Mithyātva Vedaniyā and Samyagmithyātva Vedaniyā / These are called pure, impure and semi-pure respectively / Karma that does not hinder Samyaktva in the form of Tattvaruchi, but does not allow for the attainment of the natural state of the soul, which is Aupaśamika and Kṣayika Samyaktva, due to which doubt arises in considering the nature of capable substances, and impurities, dirt, and deep defects arise in Samyaktva, is Samyaktva Vedaniyā (Mohaniyā) / Karma whose udaya causes the jīva to have no interest in the true nature of the Tattvas, i.e., it is experienced as a lack of faith in Tattvārtha, is called Mithyātva Mohaniyā. Karma whose udaya causes the jīva to have neither interest nor disinterest in the Tattvas (reality) or in the Tattvas taught by the Jinas, or neither faith nor lack of faith, but remains in a mixed state, is called Samyaktva Mithyātva Vedaniyā (Mohaniyā) or Miśramohaniyā. (5) Charitramohaniyakarma: Bhev and Svarūpa - Charitramohaniyakarma have two main divisions - Kaṣāyavedaniyā (Mohaniyā) and Nokaṣāyavedaniyā (Mohaniyā). Kaṣāyavedaniyā - Karma that is experienced in the form of anger, pride, deceit and greed is called Kaṣāyavedaniyā. The characteristic of Kaṣāya is described in the Viśeṣāvaśyaka Bhāṣya as follows - That which destroys the qualities of the soul or Kaṣa, i.e., the cycle of birth and death, the attainment of which is caused by it, is called Kaṣāya.
