________________ Navatattva Prakarana : 27 Notes: (1) It is noteworthy that the soul assimilates only that karmic matter which is within its own pradeśas and which is devided into eight species of karma. Eight species of karma may be compared as under: Knowledge obscuring karma may be compared with bondage since it covers the knowledge, intution obscuring (darśanāvaraņiya) karma with a watchman as it stops the intution, feeling producing (vedanīya) karma with a honey adged sword since it produces pain and pleasure both; belief and conduct obscuring (mohaniya) karma with a wine as it produces attachment and affection to the worldly things; age determining karma with a shackles as it binds the individuals in the shackles of age; personality determining (āyuşya) karma with an artist as artist makes good and bad paintings in the same way personality determining (nāma) karma makes the body ugly and beautiful; status determining (gotra) karma with a potter as he makes pots big and small according to his own desire and power hindering (antarāya) karma may be compared with a store keeper since it obstructs charity, receiving, enjoyment and will power.
