Shedding of Karma (Nirjarā)
Nisankita Amga or Nisanka attribute of a SamyagDṛşti.
Question: Based on the above description of four legs of Karmika bonding it appears that only beings in 14th Gunasthāna are free from these four legs. Does it mean that beings of 14th Gunasthāna are only to be called as SamyagDrști with doubtlessness (Nisanka attribute)?
Answer: A SamyagDrști of 4th Guṇasthāna also visualizes the separateness between the soul and these four legs of Karmika bonding. Therefore, such a person is also a SamyagDrști with doubtlessness. This stanza says that anybody who has broken the attachment of Self with these four legs of Karmika bonding is to be known as SamyagDrști having Nisanka attribute.
Question: What is correlation between the breaking of the four legs of Karmika bonding and doubtlessness?
Answer: The philosophy of the path of liberation deals with the pure Self and the breaking of these four legs of Karmika bonding. An understanding of the detachment of the soul with these four legs shows an understanding of the entire basic philosophy (see stanza 15 also). The understanding of the entire basic philosophy results into the absence of doubt or skepticism. Further, if one has any doubt regarding the separateness of his real Self with any of these four legs of Kärmika bonding then he is not a SamyagDrşti.
This stanza in combination with the previous stanza thus shows that Nisanka attribute of an enlightened being describes two qualities: (a) Fearlessness or absence of apprehensiveness, and (b) Doubtlessness or absence of skepticism.
In next stanzas we would come across more attributes of a Samyag Drşti.
