The feelings of laughter, attraction, aversion, sorrow, fear, and disgust are to be understood as the nine divisions of Nokshayamohaniya, namely, laughter, attraction, aversion, sorrow, fear, disgust, Striveda, Purushaveda, and Napumsakaved. The name Striveda, Purushaveda, and Napumsakaved are given to the desires that arise from the respective genders, male, female, and neuter. The desires of these three vedas are like the fires of excrement, grass, and city respectively.
**Special Note:** These two verses describe the nine divisions of Nokshayamohaniya. Their names are:
(1) Hasya (Laughter)
(2) Rati (Attraction)
(3) Arati (Aversion)
(4) Shoka (Sorrow)
(5) Bhaya (Fear)
(6) Jugupsa (Disgust)
(7) Striveda (Desire for a woman)
(8) Purushaveda (Desire for a man)
(9) Napumsakaved (Desire for a neuter)
The word "Mohaniya Karma" should be added before these names. The characteristics of these nine divisions are as follows:
**Hasya (Laughter):** The karma that causes laughter due to reasons like seeing the antics of a clown or without any reason is called Hasya-Mohaniya Karma. In other words, the karma that produces laughter is called Hasya-Mohaniya Karma.
**Rati (Attraction):** The karma that causes attraction towards objects with or without reason is called Rati-Mohaniya Karma.
**Arati (Aversion):** The karma that causes aversion or dislike towards objects with or without reason is called Arati-Mohaniya Karma.
