## Gommatasara Karmakanda-21
**Meaning:** Both the root and the glow of fire are hot, hence the origin of the Uṣṇasparśa-nāmakarma. That which has only glow, i.e., heat in its rays, is called Ātapa (sunlight). (The Ātapanāmakarma should be understood to arise in the disc of the sun and in the Badaraparyāpta-pṛthvīkāyika Tiryāñcajīvas born in the Suryakāntamani). And that which has no glow at all, its origin is the Udyotanāmakarma.
**Quote from the Tālpatra-īya Mūla Go. Ka.:**
"Godakammam duviham ucca-nīcagodam ce'i. Antarāya pañcaviham dāna-lābha-bhoga-upabhoga-dhīriya-antarāyaṁ ce'i."
**Meaning of the Quote:** There are two types of Gotrakarma: Uccagotra and Nīcagotra. There are five types of Antarāyakarma: Dānāntarāya, Lābhāntarāya, Bhogāntarāya, Upabhogāntarāya, and Dhīriyāntarāya.
**Special Meaning:** The binding together of the Karmanavarganas, which are fit for Karma, in the form of Ekakṣetrāvagāha in the Ātmapradeśas, is called Bandha, like milk and water. Just as various types of juice, seeds, flowers, fruits, etc., placed in a particular vessel, become mixed with the wine, similarly, the Karmanavarganas also become mixed with the Karmabhāva due to the influence of Yoga and Kaṣāya.
The various Pudgalakarmavarganas, which are taken in by the same soul, become transformed into different types of Karma, such as Jñānāvaraṇa, etc., just as the food eaten at one time is transformed into juice, blood, etc.
Now, the explanation of the Uttaraprakṛtis:
That which covers the Matijñāna is called Matijñānāvaraṇa. That which covers the Śruta-jñāna is called Śruta-jñānāvaraṇa. That which covers the Avadhijñāna is called Avadhijñānāvaraṇa. That which covers the Manahparyaya-jñāna is called Manahparyaya-jñānāvaraṇa. And that which covers the Kevalajñāna is called Kevalajñānāvaraṇa.
**Doubt:** Does the Abhavya have the power of Manahparyaya-jñāna and Kevalajñāna? If he does, then he is not an Abhavya. And if he does not have the power, then it is pointless to talk about the covering of these two types of knowledge.
**Solution:** From the Dravyārthikanyāya, he has the power of both these types of knowledge, but from the Paryāyārthikanyāya, there is no individualization of the power. Therefore, the faults you have pointed out are not possible. Just as gold is present in the form of power in a blind stone, but it is not individualized, so it should be understood.
