Samkhya system.
If you maintain that the Self transforms the karmic molecules into various karmic modes, then how can the Self cause transformation in a substance that, by nature, is immutable? Or else, if you believe that the physical matter, on its own accord, transforms into various modes of karmas, then it will be false to say that jiva causes transformation of karmic matter into karmic modes. Therefore, in reality, just as the karmic molecules which get transformed into various karmic modes are material substance, in the same way, karmic modifications like knowledge-obscuring karmas etc., are mutated states of the karmic substance.
सांख्यमतानुयायी शिष्य को संबोधन
सयं बद्धो कम्मे ण सयं परिणमदि कोहमादीहिं । जदि एस तुज्झ जीवो अप्परिणामी तदा होदि ॥
अपरिणमंतम्हि सयं जीवे कोहादिएहि भावेहिं । संसारस्स अभावो पसज्जदे संखसमओ वा ॥
पग्गलकम्मं कोहो जीवं परिणामएदि कोहत्तं । तं सयमपरिणमंतं किह परिणामयदि कोहत्तं ॥
अध्याय - 3
अह सयमप्पा परिणमदि कोहभावेण एसं दे बुद्धी । कोहो परिणामयदे जीवं कोहत्तमिदि मिच्छा ॥
