## The Collection of Gadashti
When the series of [karma] comes to an end, it disperses, and then through the supreme effort, one attains the knowledge of the Shriman, becoming a Kevali-Sarvagna.
The four "Ghatikarma" are: Jnanavarniya, Darshanavarniya, Mehniya, and Antaraya. They speak of the inherent qualities of the soul, hence "Ghati" - destroyers. Jnanavarniya karma covers the soul's inherent quality of knowledge, destroying it. Darshanavarniya karma covers the soul's inherent quality of perception, destroying it. Mehniya karma destroys the soul's supreme decisive quality of Samyaktava, and the quality of character that is stable in the nature of knowledge and perception. Antaraya karma destroys the soul's infinite quality of vigor. Thus, because they destroy the inherent qualities of the soul, these four karmas are given the true name "Ghatikarma."

Among these four Ghatikarma, Mehniya karma is the most powerful. It is called the king because while other karmas like Jnanavarniya only cover the soul's respective qualities, Mehniya karma transforms the soul's respective Mehniya qualities into the opposite taste. Darshan Mehniya, the king of the soul, transforms the quality of Samyaktava, which is the form of correct faith, into the opposite form of Mithya faith.
