## 46 / Go. Sa. Jeevakand
The nature of the seventh Apramattasangat Gunasthan is described by the venerable Sanjalraparoksaayanaanusri. When the Sanjwalan Kshaya and the Navokshaya are in a mild state of arousal, then it is Apramattasangat Gunasthan, and from this, the Prapramattasanyat is born. || 45 ||
**Verse 45**
**Meaning:** When the Sanjwalan Kshaya and the Navokshaya are in a mild state of arousal, then it is Apramattasangat Gunasthan, and from this, the Prapramattasanyat is born. || 45 ||
**Explanation:** The Sanjwalan Kshaya are: Mana (mind), Maya (illusion), Lobha (greed), and Hasyarati (laughter and pleasure). The Navokshaya are: Prarati (anger), Shoka (sorrow), Bhaya (fear), Jugupsa (disgust), Strivedapurupraved (attraction to women), Purupraved (attraction to men), and Napusakaved (attraction to eunuchs). These 13 Prakritis (natural tendencies) in their intense state of arousal are called Pramad. From this, it is also established that the mild state of arousal of the four Sanjwalan Kshaya and the nine Navokshaya is called Prapramad. Before the ascent of the soul in the Shreni (hierarchy of beings), all the Sanjamis (those who have attained self-control) experience these thirteen Prakritis in both intense and mild states of arousal. When they are in an intense state of arousal, they attain the sixth Gunasthan called Pramattasanyat, and when they are in a mild state of arousal, they remain in the seventh Gunasthan called Apramattasangat. However, the duration of Pramattasanyat is twice that of Apramattasangat. Thus, in the Pramattasangat and Apramattasangat Gunasthan, the one who is confused is in the Apramattasangat Gunasthan.
Those whose Sanjam (self-control) is not accompanied by Pramad are Apramattasangat. Those Jivas (living beings) who are Sanjamis and do not experience the fifteen types of Pramad are Apramattasangat.
**Doubt:** Does this Apramattasangat Gunasthan encompass all the remaining Sanjamis, thus eliminating the need for other Sangat Gunasthanas?
**Resolution:** This is not the case. Only those Sangats who are not endowed with the special qualities like A-purvakaran (absence of previous actions) etc., and who have been affected by Pramad, are included in the Apramattasangat Gunasthan. Therefore, all the subsequent Sanjamis are not included in the Apramattasangat Gunasthan.
**Doubt:** How can we know that the Sanjamis endowed with the special qualities like A-purvakaran etc., are not included here?
**Resolution:** If we do not accept that the subsequent Sanjamis are not included here, then their description cannot be established. This indicates that only the Pramattasanyats who are devoid of the special qualities like A-purvakaran etc., are included here.
In the present time, the emergence and disappearance of the Sarvaghati (all-destructive) competitors of the Pratyakhyanavararagiya Karmas (karmas that lead to the rejection of the world), and the absence of their emergence in the future, as well as the mild state of arousal of the Sanjwalan Kshaya, give rise to Pratyakhyan (rejection). Therefore, this Gunasthan is also Kshayopashamic (pacifying the Kshaya). The causes of Sanjam are:
1. "Ko Pramado Naam? Chadu Sanjwal Ragavanokasayarnam Tibboudayo." Dhaval Pu. 7 p. 11.
2. "Prathamattadhado Pramattadhae Dugunattado - Aval Pu. 3 p. 60."
3. Prakrut Panchasangrah Pra. 1 Ga. 16, and Dhaval Pu. 1 p. 179; this verse is also found in the commentary of Sutra 15.
