13 to 16 Four degrees of greed, 17 to 25 The same as the remaining mohaniya
karmas, laughing & joking, etc, down to
the neuter sex passion. These are the same states as the 25 last mohaniya karmas, only here the point of view is that when in any one of these states, the person generates or adds to his present karma. If, however, the attitude of the mind is one of aloofness, then fresh karma is not generated, he does not then identify himself with the anger for instance, and so does not generate more. Yoga. There are 15 kinds of this cause. In
this relation in the Jain philosophy, the word yoga has the technical meaning of bodily, speech, or thought activity. (This is
a techincal meaning). 1. Satya-mano-yoga. Activity of the mind :
it may be truthsul : it generates a kind of
karma. 2. Asatya-mano-yoga. Activity of the mind
which implies falsehood. 3. Satyā-satya-mishrana-mano-yoga. A state
of mind when you may be thinking of something and that of which you are thinking relates partly to truth and partly to something that is false. It is a mixture of the two previous kinds.
