Jaina Acara: Siddhanta aura Swarupa
(3) Abhinivesika-Even though you are conscious of your stand being wrong, you persist in it doggedly. This is a distorted, one-sided view. (4) Samsaya-It is to entertain doubts in the veracity of the fundamental tenets. Even those well-versed in scriptures wonder at times whether this or that interpretation is the right one. This is the proper approach. What wrong is to be ever doubting and wondering whether all this is bunkum. (5) Anābhaugika—It is all delusion with little of thought and knowledge. One-sensed beings mostly suffer from it.

The first four are manifest but only the fifth is not. From another standpoint there are ten divisions as follows:
(1) To treat impiety as piety.
(2) To treat piety as impiety
(3) To treat non-renunciation of worldly objects as renunciation. (4) To treat renunciation as its opposite.
(5) To treat the non-self as self.
(6) To treat the self as non-self. (7) to treat the righteous as unrighteous. (8) To treat the unrighteous as righteous. (9) to treat the libertated as unliberated (10) To treat the unliberated as liberated.
The Bauddhas, too, have treated them with different appellations such as to consider what is unworthy of being practised by an ascetic as worthy, immodesty as modesty, vice versa and the like. The sky-clad Nemicandra says that these five are not exhaustive. In the scriptures all of them have been collated as follows:
(1) same as (1) above.
(2)
as (2) above.
(3) as (4) above.
(4)
as (3) above.
(5)
(6) Worldly
(7) extra-worldly.
(8) Ill-sermonising. (9) Immodesty. (10) Actionlessness. (11) Irreverence
as (5) above
