TATTVĀRTHA SÜTRA
there is chiefly bondage-in-respect-of-flavour of a karma-type like jñānāvaranīya; as for the other karma-types that are simultaneously bound down there is bondage-in-respect-of-flavour in their case too but it obtains in a subordinate measure. For it is impossible to maintain that bondage-in-respect-of-flavour obtains for just one karma-type and not for the others that are simultaneously bound down. The reason is that whatever karmatypes experience on account of yoga bondage-in-respect-of-karmicparticles the same simultaneously experience on account of kasāya bondage-in-respect-of-flavour. Hence the separate mention of causes-of-bondage we find here can be defended in no other way except by suggesting that it refers to bondage-in-respect-of-flavour and that obtaining chiefly. 26.
