## Chapter 6: Purity of the Body
**Verse 487:** Even though a Sadhu (holy person) consumes food after performing the initial purification rituals, they remain pure and do not accumulate karma.
**Verse 488:** There are two types of impurities in the body: **dravya-gata** (material) and **bhaava-gata** (mental). The impurity that resides in the material body is **dravya-gata**, and the impurity that arises from the mind's modifications is **bhaava-gata**.
**Verse 489:** There are three types of food: **sarvaishana** (all-consuming), **vidvaishana** (discriminating), and **shuddhashana** (pure). **Sarvaishana** is impure, **vidvaishana** is partially pure, and **shuddhashana** is completely pure. **Shuddhashana** is free from **eshana-samiti** (impurities), **vikruti** (modifications), and **vyanjana** (flavorings).
**Verse 490:** Knowing the **dravya** (food), **kshetra** (environment), **kala** (time), **bhaava** (mental state), **bala** (strength), and **viriya** (effort), one should practice **eshana-samiti** as instructed by the Jina (Tirthankara).
