**293.** These vibrations are not perceived by the **san̄kraman̄a-prasthāpaka** in all states. **294.** This is the meaning of this **gāthā**.
**[Gāthā 135]**
**(82)** The **san̄kraman̄a-prasthāpaka** is worthy of worship when he perceives **vedas**, **vedanīya karmas**, **sarvavarana** (all-encompassing) **karmas**, and **kaṣāyas**. He is not worthy of worship when he perceives the remaining karmas. || 135 ||
**295.** Explanation. **296.** Thus. **297.** He perceives one of the three **vedas**, i.e., the **veda** whose arising causes the ascent of the **śreṇī**. **298.** He perceives either **sātavedanīya** (pleasant) or **asātavedanīya** (unpleasant) **karmas**. **299.** He perceives the **sarvavarana** **karmas** in their **sarvabhāga** (all-encompassing) or **deśabhāga** (specific) aspects. **300.** He perceives one of the four **kaṣāyas**. **301.** Thus, the **san̄kraman̄a-prasthāpaka** is worthy of worship when he perceives **vedas**, **vedanīya karmas**, **sarvavarana** **karmas**, and **kaṣāyas**.
The term "**nimada**" has been given. If it is said that the **san̄kraman̄a-prasthāpaka** has already experienced **sattva-vicchedha** (separation from the soul) before the state of **styāna-gṛddhi-trika** (the three karmas of dullness, greed, and delusion), then how can the indication of their arising and ceasing be considered meaningful here? Secondly, in the **gāthā**, there is no mention of any of the three terms **styāna**, **gṛddhi**, etc. In such a situation, the term "**nidda**" should be understood as sleep, and the term "**payala**" should be understood as **pracalā** (restlessness). And the **san̄kraman̄a-prasthāpaka** remains unaware of these two natures. This is the meaning of the **gāthā-sūtra**. Otherwise, how can it be said that sleep and **pracalā** arise and cease at the time of the **dvi-carma** (second extreme) of the twelfth **guṇa-sthāna** (stage of spiritual progress)?
The answer is that although sleep and **pracalā** exist in an unmanifest form before and after this state of **san̄kraman̄a-prasthāpaka**, their power is obstructed due to the special use of **dhyāna** (meditation) in this intermediate state, and therefore there is no contradiction in considering their non-arising. Or, it should be understood that sleep and **pracalā** do not arise in all states of the **kṣapaka** (momentary) **śreṇī** (series), because their arising is not possible in the appropriate states of **dhyāna**.
**Cūrṇi-sūtra:** These **gāthā-paṭhita** (gāthā-related) **karmas** are not perceived by the **san̄kraman̄a-prasthāpaka** in all his states. This is the meaning of this **bhāṣya-gāthā**. || 293-294 ||
Now, the second meaning of the original **gāthā** is presented, which is the second **bhāṣya-gāthā**. The **san̄kraman̄a-prasthāpaka** is worthy of worship when he perceives **vedas**, **vedanīya karmas**, **sarvavarana** **karmas**, and **kaṣāyas**. He is not worthy of worship when he perceives the remaining karmas. || 135 ||
**Cūrṇi-sūtra:** This **gāthā** is explained as follows. The **san̄kraman̄a-prasthāpaka** perceives one of the three **vedas**, i.e., the **veda** whose arising causes the ascent of the **śreṇī**. He perceives either **sātavedanīya** (pleasant) or **asātavedanīya** (unpleasant) **karmas**. He perceives the **sarvavarana** **karmas** in their **sarvabhāga** (all-encompassing) or **deśabhāga** (specific) aspects. He perceives one of the four **kaṣāyas**. Thus, with respect to **vedas**, **vedanīya karmas**, **sarvavarana** **karmas**, and **kaṣāyas**, the **san̄kraman̄a**...
