## The Sutra Kritanga Sutra
The commentator, explaining the view of the Kritavadins in a different way, says: Here, in this proposition of the Kritavadins, there are three categories of the soul, which are called *trairasika*. According to the followers of Goshalak, there are twenty-one sutras, arranged according to the previous *trairasika* sutra tradition. They say that this soul, being pure, becomes a human being, and by becoming pure in conduct, becomes free from all impurities and blemishes, and becomes free from sin in liberation. This means that all its karmas are eliminated. This is stated by some followers of Goshalak. Again, that soul, being in the state of two categories, purity and non-action, becomes attached to passion or hatred in liberation itself, and becomes stained by the dust of karma. This means that, seeing the worship of his own sect and the defeat of other sects, he experiences joy, and seeing the disrespect of his own sect, he experiences hatred. Thus, that soul, being attached to passion and hatred, gradually becomes stained by the dust of karma, like a clean cloth becomes stained by use. And being stained by karma, it is reborn in the world again due to the weight of karma. In this state, it becomes the third category, the state of being active. || 11 ||
The commentator further explains:
Here, the Muni, born in this world, becomes free from sin. Just as pure water becomes impure, so too does he become impure by sinful actions. || 12 ||
**Translation:**
A being born in this world, becomes a Muni, following the rules of Yama and Niyama, and becomes free from sin. But just as pure water becomes impure, so too does he become impure by sinful actions.
