Sutras
(3) Confidence in the purpose of reality and the notion of
growth (samyag darshana) arise - through intuition (nisarga) or - by the acquisition of a special type of knowledge (adhigama).
(4) . The individual impulse of life - 'that what lives in a
living being' - (jiva) - the elements that do not possess consciousness (ajiva) - the mechanism by which a living being attracts kar
mic matter (asrava) - the binding of karmic matter to a living being
(bandha) - the termination of the process that binds karmic mat
ter to a living being (samvara) - the separation of karmic matter from a living being
(nirjara) and - the liberation of a living being from all influences that
limit his innate qualities and abilities (moksa) are reality.
(5) We experience reality (consciousness, matter, time etc.)
on four different planes: - on the plane of articulation - where we use names and
terms for the purpose of communication and social mechanisms (nama) - on the plane of mental structure - where we form our individual reality (sthapana)
