**Karma-Nirjara**
As the purity of the results in future states increases, the Karma-Nirjara increases innumerably. Thus, it gradually increases and finally reaches its peak in the state of omniscience. _In the present context of Karma-Nirjara, the least Nirjara is experienced by the Samyagdarshi and the most by the omniscient. The names of the stages in the increasing order of Karma-Nirjara are as follows: Samyagdarshi, Shravak, Virat, Ananta-Anubandhi-Viyojak, Darshan-Moh-Kshapak, Moho-Upshamk, Upshant-Moh, Kshapk, Ksheen-Moh, and Jin. These stages are successively characterized by innumerable degrees of Nirjara. However, the time taken for each stage is progressively less than the previous one. This means that the time taken for Karma-Nirjara by the Samyagdarshi is less than that taken by the Shravak. Similarly, it should be understood for the Virat and subsequent stages._
Out of the fourteen Gunasthanas, five Gunasthanas (1, 4, 5, 6, and 13) are eternal in the Lok, meaning they always exist. The remaining nine Gunasthanas are non-eternal. While going to the Parbhav, the first, second, and fourth Gunasthanas remain. The third, twelfth, and thirteenth Gunasthanas are immortal. 1. (a) Samyagdarshi, Shravak, Virat, Ananta-Viyojak, Darshan-Moh-Kshapak, Upshamk, Upshant-Moh-Kshapak, Ksheen-Moh, and Jin are successively characterized by innumerable degrees of Nirjara.
