Gommatasar Karmakanda-689
reti
Karma-bandha occurs. Guru, meaning Samyagdarshan, Samyagjnana and Samyakcharitra, are the great Gurus. To say about them that they do not possess these qualities of knowledge etc., that they are unlearned, is a fault. Shruta, meaning the twelve-fold scripture (although the compilation of the twelve-fold scripture is attributed to Ganadhardeva, but in terms of cause, the Arhant Bhagwan is considered the preacher of the twelve-fold scripture, because the compilation of the twelve-fold scripture is based on the divine sound of the Arhant Bhagwan), to criticize this Shruta by saying that "the consumption of bhaans etc. is blameless" is a fault. Dharma, which rescues the being who is caught in the suffering of the four gati and places him in the highest happiness, is Dharma. To say about it that the Dharma preached by the Jinendra Bhagwan is devoid of qualities, and whoever practices it will be an Asura, is a fault. To criticize the Sangha, which is a group of Rishis, Yatis, Munis and Anagaaras, by saying that they have impure bodies, are deformed and devoid of qualities, is a fault. Thus, due to the above-mentioned beliefs, the binding of Darshan-mohaniya karma, which is the cause of the endless cycle of births and deaths, occurs. Now, the reasons for the binding of Charitra-mohaniya karma are explained:
Tivvakasaao bahumohaparinado ragadossasantatto.
Bandhadi charittamohan duviham vi charittagunaghadi. ||803||
Meaning - The being who is intense in his kapaya (and in his nokashya, such as laughter etc.), who undergoes excessive transformation in the form of moha, who is deeply engrossed in raga and dvesha, and who destroys the qualities of charitra, binds the intense portion of Charitra-mohaniya karma, which is divided into kapaya and nokashya.
Special Meaning - To criticize the charitra of holy ascetics, to adopt vows and practices that are conducive to suffering, to mock Dharma, to talk excessively, is intense kapaya. Due to these reasons, the binding of kapayas like krodha etc. occurs. Laughing at others leads to the binding of Hasya karma, engaging in various games and being interested in the nature of attracting the minds of others leads to the binding of Rati karma. The destruction of rati, the company of sinful people etc. leads to the binding of Arati karma. Being afraid oneself and causing fear in others leads to the binding of Bhaya karma. The culmination of unskillful actions leads to the binding of Jugupsa karma. False speech, deceit, trickery, eagerness for deception, intense raga, these lead to the binding of Striveda karma. Mild anger, lack of cunning, contentment in one's own wife etc. lead to the binding of Purushaveda karma, and abundant kapaya, the destruction of the hidden senses, the addiction to sexual games, these lead to the binding of Napumsaka veda karma. Thus, the being who is transformed by various types of mithyatva and who is "ragadosasantatto", meaning who is filled with impure love in the form of raga and hatred in the form of dvesha towards the Ratna-tray, and who has the above-mentioned characteristics along with intense kapaya,
