Gommatasar Karmakanda-22
That which covers or by which covering is done is called Avaranakarma. There are four types of Darshan Avaran Karmas that cover the four types of Darshan: Chakshudarshana Avaran, Achakshudarshana Avaran, Avadhi Darshan Avaran, and Keval Darshan Avaran. There are also five types of Nidra, the characteristics of which have been previously explained by Nemichandracharya himself.
There are two types of Vedaniya: Saataroopa and Asataroopa. Their characteristics have also been explained previously.
There are two types of Mohaniya Karma: Darshan Mohaniya and Charitra Mohaniya. Darshan Mohaniya has three types: Mithyatva, Samyagmithyatva, and Samyaktva. In terms of Bandha, there is only one type, Mithyatva, but in terms of Udaya and Sattwa, there are three types.
Mithyatva is the state of being a Mithyadristi, where the soul is turned away from the path established by the omniscient, is disinterested in the truth, and is devoid of thoughts about the welfare and harm of the soul. Just as the intense power of the husk of rice is reduced and becomes muddy when it is washed, similarly, when the intense power of Mithyatva in a substance is slightly reduced and becomes weak, it is called Samyagmithyatva. Just as eating washed intoxicating rice makes one slightly intoxicated and also clever, similarly, the Udaya of Samyagmithyatva nature leads to a mixed result in the soul, a mixture of Samyak and Mithyatva. This means that there is simultaneous belief in the truths spoken by the omniscient and the untruths not spoken by the omniscient. Samyaktva nature is that which does not stop the belief of the soul but destroys the purity and stability of Samyaktva.
Charitra refers to the act of conduct or that by which conduct is done or conduct itself. That which deludes this Charitra or by which this Charitra is deluded is called Charitra Mohaniya Karma. Charitra Mohaniya Karma is of two types: Kashaya Vedaniya and Nokshaya Vedaniya.
That which destroys the qualities of Charitra in the soul is called Kashaya. And that which is slightly (kinchit) Kashaya is called Nokshaya. There are sixteen types of Kashaya Vedaniya: Ananta Anubandhi Krodha, Mana, Maya, Lobha; Apratyakhyana Avaran Krodha, Mana, Maya, Lobha; Pratyakhyana Avaran Krodha, Mana, Maya, Lobha; Sajwalan Krodha, Mana, Maya, Lobha.
Mithyatva is infinite because it is the cause of infinite samsara. That which is a constant companion (Anubandhini) of Mithyatva is Ananta Anubandhi. That which is 'A' - slightly Pratyakhyana - Samyama, meaning Desha Samyama or...
