THE JAINA GAZETTE
consumable things, (12) Virya or energising : (13) Desasamyama or partial restraint : (14) Samyak-darsana or right faith; (15) Charitra or right conduct; (16) Chakshur-darsana or visual perception ; (17) Achakshusha-darsana or non-visual perception; and (18) Avadhi-darsana or clairvoyant perception. It may be noted here incidentally that the Antaraya or the Obstructive karmas may have Kshaya (annihilation) or Kshayopasama (partial annihilation and partial mitigation) but they cannot have pure Upasama (mitigation). Every Kshayopasamika and Kshayika Bhava in the soul must be preceded by either Kshayopasama or Kshaya of the Antaraya Karmas. The Oupasamika Bhava of the soul also involves the Kshayopasama of the Antaraya Karmas.
When Karma is radically rooted out the Jiva attains the Kshayika Bhava. It has nine modes viz.,-(1) Samyuk-darsana or right faith. (2) Jnana or right knowledge. (3) Charitra or right conduct. (4) Virya or power. (5) Dana or giving. (6) Darsanopayoga or pure intuition. (7) Bhoga or enjoying. (8) Upabhoga or enjoying non-consumable things and (9) Labha or gain. One may attain the Kshayika Samyak Darsana between the fourth and the seventh Gunasthanas. The Kshayika Charitra is manifested when the Soul is in the twelvth Gunasthana. The remaining seven Kshayika Bhavas appear in the thirteenth stage when the Soul attains the Kevala-jnana or omniscience. One characteristic of every Kshayika Bhava is that it remains attached to the Soul, even in its state of Emancipation. This is also true of the Oupasamika Bhavas. Of the Kshayopasamika Bhavas, this can be said of Samyak-darsana only.
The Jiva Of Six Kinds. Souls are divided into six classes in accordance with the number of organs of their knowledge, viz., (1) Ekendriya or onesensed, (2) Doindriya or two-sensed, (3) Trindriya or threesensed, (4) Chaturindriya or four-sensed, (5) Amanaska Panchendriya or mindless five-sensed and (6) Samanaska Panchendriya
or minded five-sensed. Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara, Surat
