This is a description of the **avarnavada** (criticism) of the Dharma (religion) that has been preached by the **Jinas**, the **Acharyas** and **Upadhyayas**, the four types of **Sangha** (community), and the **Devas** (divine beings) who are the holders of mature **tapas** (austerity) and **brahmacarya** (celibacy).

**Meaning:** (**Charitra**) How does the **mohaniya karma** (karma that binds to the body) occur? **Gautama:** Through three types of anger, three types of pride, three types of deceit, three types of greed, three types of **darshanamohaniya** (karma that binds to the senses), and three types of **charitramohaniya** (karma that binds to conduct).

**(5) Ayukarma**
There are four types of **ayukarma** (karma that determines lifespan): **naraka** (hell), **tiryanch** (animal), **manushya** (human), and **deva** (divine). Each of these has its own separate cause of binding. While the texts for the causes of binding for **naraka**, **tiryanch**, **manushya**, and **deva** are separate, the text for the cause of binding for all lifespans is generally cited.
1. To point out faults where there are none, to criticize, is **avarnavada**.
