Gañadharavada . •; 109 : “ karma." Whence ? He replies—" From the fruit i, e., from that difference in the fruit ( achieved by different people with equal means ).” How is 'karma? proved on the strength of that difference of fruit ? He replies:--
“ From its being an effect, " 6. e., because that difference of fruit is an effect. There is invariably a cause corresponding to what is an effect, just as atoms of earth are the cause of a pot, ” and in this case the cause is an action. “ The effect of actions is different from those actions" and it can be proved here that that very' karman'is the unseen fruit of all actions whatever. What kind of action is it? It is different from those actions. Since this "karman' is an effect and since actions are the cause, and since an effect and a cause must be mutually different, the karman’ is different from those actions. 1624
The author states an objection to this and its reply:आह नणु मुत्तमेवं मुत्तं चिय कज्जमुत्तिमत्ताओ। इह जह मुत्तत्तणओ घडस्स परमाणवो मुत्ता ॥७७॥ (१६२५) Aha naņu muttamevam muttam ciya kajjamuttimaitāo i Iha jaha muttattanao ghadassa parmānavo mūttā 11 77 (1625) · [SITE 78 yawa gawa praviãamara II
इह यथा मूर्तत्वतो घटस्य परमाणवो मूर्ताः ॥ ७७ (१६२५)॥ Aha nanu mūrtamevam mūrtameva kāryamurtimattvät Iha yathā mūrtatvato ghatasya parmāņavo mūrtāḥ || ( 1625 )]
Trans.-77 (The opponent will say,) “ Then the action ( karman) has a physical form ( mūrta ).” We (the Siddhantin) would reply, “ The action has indeed a physical form because its effect ( viz., the body ) has a physical form. In this world the atoms (paramāņus ) the cause of the pot, the effect which has a physical form, will have also a physical form.” ( 1625 )
