Tattvartha Sutra
[6.11-26 For those who engage in proper actions happily, a renouncer, due to right conduct, does not bind sinful karma.
The causes of the bondage of the seven types of karma - 1. Compassion - Compassion towards all living beings is called bhūtānukampā, meaning the feeling of considering another's pain as one's own pain. 2. Vyatanukampā - Having special compassion towards both householders with partial adherence and renouncers with complete adherence. 3. Donation - Humbly offering one's possessions to others. 4. Sarāgasaṃyama and the like - Giving appropriate attention to all these practices such as sarāgasaṃyama, saṃyamāsaṃyama, akāmanirjara, and bālatapa. Even upon accepting restraint with the readiness to eliminate the worldly cravings that cause suffering, if the imprints of attachment in the mind are not diminished, then it is called sarāgasaṃyama. The acceptance of attachment-based restraint is saṃyamāsaṃyama. Renouncing pleasures not voluntarily but through dependence is akāmanirjara. The practices of those without true knowledge, such as immersing in fire, falling into water, eating cow dung, fasting, etc., are called bālatapa. 5. Kṣānti - The pacification of faults like anger through a righteous outlook. 6. Śauc - The pacification of shortcomings such as greed. 13.
Causes for the bondage of darśanamohaniya karma - 1. The false critique of the Kevalin - Foolishly displaying the false faults of the Kevalin, for instance, not accepting the possibility of omniscience and claiming, "Despite being omniscient, why did he not reveal simple paths to liberation and instead spoke of difficult paths that are impossible to practice?" 2. The false critique of scripture - Describing the false faults of the texts with malice, such as claiming, "This scripture is inferior because it is in a language of the uneducated or difficult Sanskrit for scholars, or it describes various vows, rules, and atonements in a meaningless and burdensome manner." 3. The false critique of the community - Exposing the false faults of the fourfold assemblies of monks, nuns, householder men, and householder women, such as saying, "Monks endure unnecessary trouble regarding vows and rules; true monkhood is impossible and yields no positive result." Regarding householder men, it is said that "they do not engage in proper behaviors such as bathing or donating and merely consider themselves pure." 4. The false critique of dharma - Pointing out false faults of great virtues such as non-violence or claiming, "Where is dharma visible? And if something is not visible, how can its existence be possible?" or stating that "humanity or nations have fallen due to non-violence." 5. The false critique of deities - Insulting the deities by claiming, "Deities do not exist, and if they do, they are useless."
