[264] The Prajñāpanā Sūtra states that there are countless types of samvahata (simultaneous) karma. Even in the case of ghabhanja (a type of rebirth), some are accompanied by vaikriya labdhi (the ability to perform actions) and some are not. Even compared to those, there are countless types of samvahata karma that are accompanied by vedanā samudghāta (the ripening of karma that causes pain), because there are countless times more beings who are not dying than those who are. Even compared to those, there are countless types of samvahata karma that are accompanied by kaṣāya samudghāta (the ripening of karma that causes passions) in the five-sense beings of the tiriyānca (animal) realm. And compared to all of these, there are countless types of asamvahata (non-simultaneous) karma in the five-sense beings of the tiriyānca realm, as explained above.
Among humans, the least common type of samudghāta (ripening of karma) is that which is accompanied by āhārak samudghāta (the ripening of karma that causes the need for food), because there are very few humans who begin their existence with an āhārak body. There are countless times more humans who are accompanied by kevali samudghāta (the ripening of karma that causes liberation), because they are found in the number of śatapṛthaktva (two hundred to nine hundred). Compared to them, there are countless times more humans who are accompanied by taijasa samudghāta (the ripening of karma that causes a luminous body), vaikriya samudghāta (the ripening of karma that causes the ability to perform actions), and māranāntika samudghāta (the ripening of karma that causes death), respectively. This is because there are more humans who are accompanied by māranāntika samudghāta than the previous two, as it is also found in the sammūcchima (those who are about to die) humans. Compared to them, there are countless times more humans who are accompanied by vedanā samudghāta, because there are countless times more humans who are not dying than those who are, and vedanā samudghāta also occurs in humans who are not dying. Compared to them, there are countless times more humans who are accompanied by kaṣāya samudghāta. And compared to all of these, there are countless times more humans who are asamvahata (not accompanied by any of these samudghātas), because there are always countless times more humans who have less kaṣāya (passions) and are sammūcchima than those who have strong kaṣāya.
The relative frequency of samudghāta in vāṇavyantara (those who live in the sky), jyotiṣka (those who have a luminous body), and vaimānika (those who travel in aerial vehicles) should be understood in the same way as in the case of asurakumāra (demigods).
[2133] How many types of kaṣāya samudghāta are there, Bhante?
[2133] Gautama, there are four types of kaṣāya samudghāta: (1) krodha samudghāta (the ripening of karma that causes anger), (2) māna samudghāta (the ripening of karma that causes pride), (3) māyā samudghāta (the ripening of karma that causes deceit), and (4) lobha samudghāta (the ripening of karma that causes greed).
[2134] How many types of kaṣāya samudghāta are there in the naraka (hell) beings, Bhante?
[2134] Gautama, all four types of kaṣāya samudghāta are found in them.
