The Šramaņi: The Worker
509
- Chapter IX gives thirty concrete examples of the factors producing mohaniya-karman, the karman of delusion which obscures darśana and cartra.
- Chapter V, cittasamādhisthāna, sets forth the different levels of knowledge to which the ascetic must aspire. The śrāvakas are also included in this advance towards perfection. One whole chapter, upāsaka-pratimā, is consecrated to them.
Except in regard to the rules for the cãturmāsya, the nirgranthis are not explicitly mentioned after the nirgranthas. However, it is implicitly understood that these rules apply to them.
