The study of the upsargas distorts the external body, in that way these upsargas do not distort the external body, therefore they are not gross, here the word 'sangha' has come which is indicative of the relationship of parents etc. relatives. It is difficult even for virtuous men to cross the relationship of relatives, adverse upsargas which put life in danger, calamity or difficulty when they come, here men rich in satva - self-strength accept the mediating attitude - neutral feeling. They are not affected by them, but it is difficult to accept neutral feeling when favorable upsargas are present, favorable upsargas make even great men fall from dharma. Therefore, the Agamkar has called favorable upsargas as difficult or difficult to cross - which are difficult to cross. When a favorable upsarga is present, men devoid of self-power become slack, unstable or loose in the observance of coolness - restraint. Or they completely abandon restraint, they become unable to live a restrained life.
