Samayasāra
2. Avirati-Non-abstinence
3. Kaṣāya-Psychic distortions manifested as passions
4. Yoga-Conscious involvement in the physical activities.
All these are psychic conditions known as audayika bhāva because they correspond with the state of rise or fruition of karma. The karma does not yield fruit as soon as it is bound. It remains inactive for some time before coming into rise and producing its result. This period of inactivity is called the period of non-production (abādhakāla). Karma comes into rise (udaya) in order to give its fruit and continues to do so uninterruptedly till it has exhausted its potency. This process of fruition of karma acts as an auxiliary causal agent for producing corresponding psychic states. Thus rise of world-view-deluding or belief-deluding (darśana-mohanīya) karma produces perverted belief, simultaneously producing wrong cognition. The rise of caritra-mohaniya (conduct-deluding) karma deludes the right conduct and weakens the self-control resulting in non-abstinence (avirati). Passions are also produced by the rise of conduct-deluding karma. Threefold activity-mental, vocal and bodily-is the result of the rise of four non-obscuring karma and body-building (nāma karma) in particular. The embodied state of the soul makes its involvement inevitable. The inherent motionlessness of the soul is vitiated into vibratory motions and cause the karmic matter to be attracted by and bound to the soul.
During earlier discussion on psycho-physical relations, we have mentioned two parallel series of psychical and physical modifications. Here we are dealing with the mutual interaction of the two series. In the physical series the karmic matter-dravva karma-undergoes various processes (such as rise, fruition) which interact with the psychical states and vice versa. In the succeeding verses we shall discuss the interaction of dravya karma and bhāva karma more elaborately.
