MOKSHA MARG PRAKASHAK
Karmas is of such type that out of so many objects only one object can be known or seen in one 'Samaya', but that too on being the Nimitta (presence) of so many external objects. There, if those external objects modify contrarily then knowing and seeing may not be possible or may be possible to some extentor otherwise. All this is the peculiarity of Karmas Kshayopashama only. Hence, the Nimitta of Karmas only is to be known, for example, someone is not able to see due to the obstruction by the atoms of darkness but the owl, cat, etc. are able to see even in the presence of obstruction created by them. All this is the peculiarity of Kshayopashama only. Thus, knowing and seeing materialises in accordance with the degrees of Kshayopashama only.
In this way is found the functioning of Kshayopashama Jnana (knowledge) to this Jiva.
The clairvoyance and telepathy knowledges found in the path of liberation are also the(types of) Kshayopashama-Jnana only. (Hence) similarly, these also know and see only one object in one Samaya (moment) and are dependent on other objects. And whatever are their details (specialities) should be known in detail.
Thus, owing to the instrumentality of the rise of Jnanavarana · and Darshanavarana Karmas, most of the degrees of Jnana and Darshan are non-existent and owing to their Kshayopashama a few degrees (of Jnana & Darshan) are found existing.

Moha (Faith-deluding) Karma Owing to the rise of Darshan-Moha the disposition of perversebelief (Mithyatva-Bhava) is caused, due.to which this Jiva believes the Tattvas (substance) contrary to their nature in the form of erroneous ascertainment. He does not believe as they are but believes as they are not.
