________________ Verse 62 The matter (pudgala) that is fit to turn into karmas, verily, attains the form of karmas without the help of or reliance on any outside agency. The matter (pudgala), on its own, transforms itself into the molecularmatter (skandha) that is fit to turn into karmas; the matter, therefore, is the doer (karta). The matter (pudgala), on its own, transforms itself into the nature of karmas; the matter, therefore, is the activity (karma). The matter (pudgala), on its own, has the power to turn into karmas; the matter, therefore, is the instrument (karana). The matter (pudgala), on its own, imparts its new nature to itself; the matter, therefore, is the bestowal (sampradana). The matter (pudgala), on its own, destroys its previous nature but still maintains its eternal nature; the matter, therefore, is the dislodgement (apadana). The matter (pudgala), on its own, acts as the substratum for all its transformations; the matter, therefore, is the substratum (adhikarana). The soul established in its Pure Self (through suddhopayoga) attains omniscience (kevalajnana) without the help of or reliance on any outside agency. Intrinsically possessed of infinite knowledge and energy, the soul, depending on the self, performs the activity of attaining its infinite knowledge-character and, therefore, the soul is the doer (karta). The soul's concentration on its own knowledgecharacter is the activity; the soul, therefore, is the activity (karma). Through its own knowledge-character the soul attains omniscience and, therefore, the soul is the instrument (karana). The soul engrossed in pure consciousness imparts pure consciousness to self; the soul, therefore, is the bestowal (sampradana). As the soul gets established in its pure nature, at the same time, destruction of impure subsidential knowledge, etc., takes place and, therefore, the soul is the dislodgement (apadana). The attributes of infinite knowledge and energy are manifested in the soul itself; the soul, therefore, is the substratum (adhikarana). . . . . . . . . . . 129
