534/Go. Sa. Jivakanda
Is it not the case that the four *charitramohaniya* (obstacles to conduct) are not destroyed or subdued in the two *kshapika* (destructive) and *upashamaka* (subduing) *gunasthanas* (states of being) of *apuurvakaran* (non-manifestation) and *anivrittikaran* (non-return), which would make it possible for the said *sanjatas* (practitioners) to attain *ayika* (worldly) and *praupashmika* (spiritual) gains?
Solution - This is not the case, because even in the *anivritti* *gunasthan* related to *kshapika* and *upashamaka*, except for *lobha* (greed), the destruction and subduing of the remaining *charitramohaniya* is found, and therefore the possibility of *kshayika* and *aupashamika* gains is found there. Or, from the very beginning of *apuurvakaran* related to *kshapika* and *upashamaka*, there are *kshayika* and *aupashamika* *sanjama* (restraint) gains, because from the very beginning of the said *gunasthanas*, the accomplishment of the work in the form of gradual destruction and subduing is seen. If the work is not accomplished at every moment, then it is not possible for the work to be completed at the end.
Doubt - How can there be three states of *praupashmika* etc. of the same *charitra*?
Solution - Just as many colors are seen in a single *chitra patanga* (multicolored bird), so too a single *charitra* can be endowed with many states.
Through *kshayopashmika* gain, the being becomes *parihara-shuddhi-sanjata* (restrained in purification of conduct).
The birth of *parihara-shuddhi-sanjama* occurs in the harmony of the rise of the *deshghati* (destructive) competitors, who have attained *kshaya* (destruction) through the infinite harm of the *sarvaghati* (all-destructive) competitors of the four *sanjwalana* (inflammations) and nine *nokashaya* (subtle passions), and have been subdued in a *deshghati* manner. Therefore, it is said that *parihara-shuddhi-sanjama* occurs through *kshayopashmika* gain.
Doubt - If the rise of these thirteen natures, the four *sanjwalana* and nine *nokashaya*, is the cause of the birth of *sanjama*, then how is it accepted as the cause of *sanjama-asanjama* (restraint-non-restraint)?
Solution - No, because the rise of the four *sanjwalana* etc., *deshghati* competitors, which has been obstructed by the rise of the *sarvaghati* competitors of *pratyakhyana-avaran* (rejection-covering), does not have the power to produce *sangrama* (struggle) except for *sanjama-asanjama*. That is, the absence of the rise of the *sarvaghati* competitors of *pratyakhyana-avaran* is the cause of the birth of *sanjama*.
*Samparaya* is called *kashaya* (passion). Those *sanjatas* whose *paya* (subtlety) has become subtle are *sukshma-samparaya-sanjata* (restrained in subtle *samparaya*).
When the *sadhus* (holy ones) who have adopted *samayika* (meditation) and *chaidopasthapana* (sixteen postures) *sanjama* become very subtle in *kashaya*, then they are called *sukshma-samparaya-shuddhi-sanjata* (restrained in the purification of subtle *samparaya*).
Through *aupashamika* and *kshayika* gain, one becomes *sukshma-samparaya-sanjata*.
In both *upashamaka* and *kshapika* types of *sukshma-samparaya* *gunasthanas*, the attainment of *sukshma-samparaya-sanjama* occurs. Therefore, *sukshma-samparaya-sanjama* occurs through *aupashamika* and *kshayika* gain.
