Bhagavai 5:6:133-134
~: 263:~
The fire-bodied (soul)' just produced (ablaze) has great karma, great urges, great karmic inflow and great pain; afterwards every moment it becomes. milder and milder and finally turns into burning charcoal, burning chaff and ashes; does, O Lord! after this, it (the fire-bodied soul) become one with light karma, light urges, light karmic inflow and light pain? Yes Gautama! the fire-bodied (soul) indeed, just ablaze, has great karma .up to after becoming milder, it does become one with light pain.
Bhāṣya
1. Sütra 133
In the present Satra, two stages of fire have been propounded. In the just lit fire, the power of burning is great. In the extinguishing fire, the power is mild. In the just lit fire, the function of burning (cumbstion) is great, so the karmika bondage and the karmika influx are also great. All these are mild in an extinguishing fire. The intensity of karmika bondage and influx of karmika flow are also great. In the state of intensely burning fire, the pain created by the mutual friction of the bodies of the fire-bodied beings is also great. All these are mild in an extinguishing fire. The intensity of karmika bondage and influx has been surmised to be due to the intensity of burning. On the reduction of the act of burning, all other acts automatically become scanty.
The Vṛtti, in connection with burning charcoal and burning chaff, has explained alpa (mild) as few (stoka); the ashes is lifeless, so in connection with ashes, alpa (mild) has been explained as non-existent i.e. nil.1
