अण्णाणमया भावा अणाणिणो बहुविहा वि जायते।
णाणिस्स दुणाणमया सव्वे भावा तहा होंति॥६३॥ annāņamayā bhāvā annāņiņo bahuvihā vi jāyamte.
ņāņissa du ņāṇamayā savve bhāvā tahā homti..63
(Ādā jam bhāvam kunadi so tassa kammassa kattā hodi) The soul (itself) is the causal agent of those bhāva karma which are the effects of the corresponding psychic states. (ņāņissa du ņāņumao aņāņissa annnāṇamao) Right knowledge produces pure states and perverted knowledge produces distorted states [bhāva).
(Anānino annnāņumao bhāvo) Distorted [liable to bondage] states [bhāva] result from perverted knowledge (teņa kammūņi kunadi) and that is why the bondage occurs; (ņāņissa du ņānaman) conversely pure states result from right knowledge and that is why there is no bondage. (Jamhā nānamayu bhāvādo nānamao bhāvo jāyade) since right knowledge is concomitant with pure states, (tamhā nāņissä savve bhāvā hu ņānamayā) the psychic states of an enlightened soul are always pure.
(Ca jamhā unnnānamaya bhāvā annnāno eva bhūvo jāyade) And since perverted knowledge is concomitant with distorted states (tamhā uņāņissa bhāvā anạnāṇamayā) psychic states of an unenlightened soul are always distorted (liable to bondage)
(Jahā kanayamayā bhāvādo kumdalādayo bhāvā jāyamte) Just as gold is used to produce ear-rings and such other ornaments (du) while (ayumayayā bhāvādo) iron is used to produce (kaduyādi jāyamte) pots and pans, similarly, (anāņino bahuvihä annnānamayā bhāvā jāyamte) unenlightened produces a variety of distorted states, because of perversity (du) while (nāņissu savve ņāņamuyā bhāvā homti) the enlightened one produces all pure state because of right knowledge [annihilation of perversity). Annotations :
Having established, in preceding verses the rule that psychic states are produced by soul, now, Acārya Kundakunda further discusses that the nature of the psychic state will primarily depend upon the nature of knowledge of the soul. So long as the knowledge is perverted, the psychic states would positively be distorted and result is fresh influx of karmic matter and bondage. He further
