Gommatasar Karmakanda-687
**Special Meaning**
Acting in a way that is contrary to the scriptures and the knowledge of the scriptures is called **pratyaneek**. Obstructing knowledge (hindering self-study) is called **antaraya**. Faulting perfect knowledge with the mind or speech, or causing minor (hunger, thirst, etc.) obstacles to knowledgeable beings is called **upghat**. Not having joy in the knowledge of the truth, or not being interested in the teachings of the truth that are the means to liberation, or having aversion to it in the inner self is called **pradosha**. Even though one knows, saying "this is not so" or "I don't know" for some reason, or obtaining knowledge from unknown gurus and hiding their names while mentioning the names of other famous persons like Tirthankaras, is called **nilava**. Not approving or rejecting with mind, speech, or body the praiseworthy knowledge, teachings, etc. of someone is called **asadana**.
Through these 6 actions, a being binds **jnanaavaran** and **darshanavaran** karma with an increase in their **anubhaga**. One should know the same for others as well. These 6 causes, if they are related to knowledge, are the causes of the increase in **jnanaavaran** anubhaga, and if they are related to perception, they are the causes of the increase in **darshanavaran** anubhaga. Although there is no rule that **pradosha**, etc. bind all karma types, they are still the causes of definite **anubhaga** binding. Therefore, **pradosha**, **nihnvada**, etc. have been mentioned separately.
**Paddiniyaahi heuuja anubhaayam padun ta bhaayaa.
Niyamaa pade sambandham paducch vahi chaarinaa savve. ||216||**
**Meaning:** One should know that the **pratyaneek**, etc. causes of **jnanaavaran**, etc. karma, i.e., the causes of special binding (mentioned in verses 800 to 810), are in relation to **anubhaga** binding, because they are all irregular in relation to **pradesha** binding. Now, the causes of the binding of **vedaniya** karma are mentioned:
**Bhudanukampavadajog junjido khantidaanaguru bhatto.
Bandhadi bhuyo sadam viwariyo bandhade idaram. ||801||**
**Meaning:** Compassion for beings (compassion for beings born from the arising of karma in their **gati-gati**), vows (the form of renunciation of violence, etc.), yoga (the form of the result of samadhi), forgiveness (the form of renunciation of anger), charity (four types based on food, etc.), and devotion to the five supreme beings, bind **sata-vedaniya** karma with abundant **anubhaga**, and the opposite causes bind **asata-vedaniya** karma with abundant **anubhaga**.
