## Gommatasara Karmakanda - 774
**Meaning:** The obstruction of the seven karmas is only in the form of an avli (a specific period of time) without the support of the lifespan karma. The lifespan karma related to the future births does not undergo udirana (a process of karmic ripening).
**Special Meaning:** After bondage, the udirana of the remaining karmas (excluding lifespan karma) occurs only after the avli period has passed. However, the lifespan karma that has been bound does not undergo udirana. This means that the current lifespan can undergo udirana, but the bound future lifespan cannot.
It should not be interpreted that the lifespan of Devas, Narakas, Charmasariri, and Bhogbhumis does not undergo udirana. Because even these beings experience udirana of their lifespan karma, but it does not lead to premature death (kadali ghat). This is because during udirana, only an infinitesimal fraction (an infinitesimal part of a loka or a palya) of the niseka (karmic particles) is attracted and released in the udaya avli (period of karmic fruition). The entire niseka is not released (Dhawala 15/43). Therefore, udirana alone does not cause premature death.
On the other hand, in premature death (kadali ghat), the entire niseka is exhausted within a fixed period. Therefore, it is not correct to consider udirana as premature death. For example, the udirana of the Naraka lifespan occurs in all Narakas. However, it is important to note that the udirana does not occur for a Naraka whose remaining lifespan is only an avli period in their Naraka bhava (Naraka existence). The same applies to Deva lifespan and others (Dhawala 15/56-57 and Jayadhawala 14/34).
Similarly, in Bhogbhumis, the udirana of the human and animal lifespans continues for a minimum of three palyas. Only in the final avli does the udirana of the human and animal lifespans not occur (Dhawala 15/63, 120, 127, 57, 178 etc. and S.Si. p. 346, Gyanapith Second Edition). In the same way, Devas and Charmasariri also experience udirana of their lifespan karma, but not premature death. Gom.K. 441 mentions the udirana of all four lifespans. Udirana does not mean premature death (Jain Gajjat 25.7.66 E. p. 9, Br. Ratanchand Mukhtar's article).
**919:**
**Meaning:** The creation of niseka (karmic particles) for the seven karmas occurs at the time of bondage, with the amount of niseka created being proportional to the state of bondage, minus the period of obstruction. However, the creation of niseka for lifespan karma occurs in proportion to the state of bondage.
**Special Meaning:** The amount of niseka created for the seven karmas, excluding lifespan karma, is determined by subtracting the period of obstruction from the total time remaining after bondage. The obstruction of lifespan karma is already exhausted in the previous birth. Therefore, the creation of niseka for lifespan karma occurs in proportion to its state of bondage.
