Karmavipaka obstructs the power to see. Darshanavaran karma has nine divisions, which are the four Darshanavaranchatushk and the five Nidras. The names and characteristics of the Darshanavaranchatushk are mentioned in the following verse.
**Verse 10:**
"Chamvitthi, Achal, Sesidiya, Ohi Kevalehi Cha. Dansanamiha Samannam Tassavaranam Tayam Chauha."
**Translation:**
"There are four types of Darshan: through the eyes, through the other four senses, through the mind, through Avadhi, and through Kevala. Here, the perception of the common characteristics present in an object is called Darshan. Four types of Darshan have been mentioned, therefore, there should be four types of karma that cover them."
**Nature of Darshanavaran Karma:**
**Explanation:**
Every object has two characteristics: common and specific. The characteristic that reflects the existence of objects, as opposed to the specific characteristic, is called Darshan. The karma that covers Darshan is called Darshanavaran.
**Four Types of Darshan:**
There are four types of Darshan: Chakshudarshan, Achakshudarshan, Avadhidarshan, and Kevaladarshan.
**Four Types of Darshanavaran:**
The karma that covers these four types of Darshan are: Chakshudarshanavaran, Achakshudarshanavaran, Avadhidarshanavaran, and Kevaladarshanavaran.
**Characteristics of Chakshudarshanavaran:**
The perception of the common characteristics of an object through the eyes is called Chakshudarshan. The karma that obstructs this perception through the eyes is called Chakshudarshanavaran.| SR No. | 090239 |
