The first is to perceive the difference between the true self (**swarupa**) and the non-self (**pararupa**) through **darshan** (insight) or **bhedgyan** (knowledge of differentiation). The second is to reside in the true self. The power of attachment (**moha**) that hinders the first action is called **darshan-moha** in Jain scriptures, and the power of attachment that hinders the second action is called **charitra-moha**. The second power is a follower of the first.

In this stage, due to the strength of both the aforementioned powers of attachment, the soul is completely fallen in its spiritual state. During this stage, no matter how much the soul achieves worldly success, its inclination is completely devoid of the true goal.

This stage is called **bahiratmanath** or **miyyavarshan** in Jain scriptures. All the souls present in this stage do not have the same spiritual state. Although both powers of attachment generally dominate all of them, there is still some variation in the intensity of attachment. Due to some reason...
