And this is the state of non-repetition. Because the only cause of the world is delusion. Due to the complete annihilation of all karmas, there is no possibility of an upadhi anymore.
This story is about the twelve gunasthanas from the first to the fourteenth, including the second and third gunasthanas. The story that was left out is this: When someone with samyaktva or tattvajnan, who is on the path of the fourth and higher realms, deviates from the royal path and leans towards the path of the first realm, which is devoid of true knowledge or is based on false beliefs, there is a state in between for that soul who is falling down. This is the second gunasthan. Although there is a little more self-purification in this gunasthan compared to the first gunasthan, its number is kept before the first because of this. However, it should be kept in mind that this gunasthan cannot be called a state of transcendence. Because a soul who has transcended the first gunasthan cannot directly attain this second gunasthan. But a soul who falls from a higher gunasthan becomes eligible for it.
Apapasana (non-virtuous conduct) arises from delusion. Therefore, at the time of this gunasthan, one finds the intense power of delusion's kashya (passion). Just as after eating sweet food like khor, etc., when one vomits, a peculiar taste is perceived in the mouth, neither too sweet nor too sour, similarly, a peculiar state of the soul is found at the time of the second gunasthan. Because at that time, the soul is neither on the path of true knowledge nor on the path of complete ignorance. Or, just as a person who is climbing stairs slips and does not immediately reach the ground, there is a peculiar state in between.
