## Karmavanya Part Four
The five senses with consciousness (Sanji-Panchendriya) are not used in the imperfect state. This is because:
* **Tiryak** and **Samyak** Devas, Narakas, etc., have knowledge and two types of vision from the moment of their birth.
* **Mithyatvi** Devas, Narakas, etc., have three types of ignorance and two types of vision from the moment of their birth.
The four uses of **Manas-paryaya** (mental perception), etc., are not possible because:
* **Manas-paryaya** can only be attained by those who practice **Samyama** (self-control), which is not possible in the imperfect state.
* **Chakshus-darshan** (visual perception) requires the functioning of the **Dhatu-indriya** (physical senses), which is not present in the imperfect state.
* **Kevalgyan** (perfect knowledge) and **Kevaldarshan** (perfect vision) are both results of **Karma-kshaya** (destruction of karma), which is not possible in the imperfect state.
The five senses with consciousness (Sanji-Panchendriya) are said to have three uses in the imperfect state, based on the expectation of **Karan-apatti** (acquisition of the cause). This is because in the imperfect state of **Labdhi-apatti** (acquisition of the result), there are no other uses except **Mati-agyan** (intellectual ignorance), **Shruta-agyan** (scriptural ignorance), and **Acha-darshan** (wrong vision).
In this verse, **Chatur-darshan** (four types of vision) is not included in the uses of the imperfect **Chatur-indriya** (four senses), imperfect **Asanji-Panchendriya** (five senses without consciousness), and imperfect **Sanji-Panchendriya** (five senses with consciousness). This is according to a different opinion. Because, according to the opinion of the **Paksha-sangrahakar** (compiler of the arguments), in the imperfect state of these three types of beings, **Indriya-paryapti** (perfection of the senses) is complete, and therefore **Chakshus-darshan** (visual perception) is also attained.
To understand the meaning of both opinions, one should refer to the note of verse 17.
**Note:**
* This is mentioned by **Shrimala-giri-muni** as follows:
"The imperfect and the conditionally perfect should be known. Otherwise, in the imperfect, even **Chakshus-darshan** (visual perception) is attained, as the **Mula-toka** (original text) states that it is attained by the **Ayina** (one who has attained perfection)." - **Pavasan** (commentary on the **Dwar** 1, **Gatha** 8).
