40, 80, 160, 320, 640, 1280, this is the **guna-shreni nirjara**. In **guna-shreni nirjara**, the juice of inauspicious karmas also becomes weak and arises. **Guna-shreni nirjara** is of both auspicious and inauspicious karmas. In the fourth **guna-sthana**, there is no continuous **guna-shreni nirjara** (My Pro. Ma. - 341, 361 Sasti Granthamala). Only when there is **samyama** (vrat) is there continuous **guna-shreni nirjara** (Dhavala - 8/83). Therefore, from the fifth **guna-sthana**, there is continuous **guna-shreni nirjara** (J.D. 12). 21. Question: What is **guna-samkramana**? Answer: Where, due to countless **guna-shreni-krama**, the **paramanu-pradesha** transforms into another **prakriti** form, it is called **guna-samkramana**. 22. Question: What is **sthiti-khandana** (**sthiti-kandaka-ghat**)? Answer: Scratching and destroying the upper part, sections, or layers of the state of karmas is called **sthiti-khandana** or **sthiti-kandaka-ghat**. By **sthiti-kandaka-ghat**, the **sthiti-sattva** of karmas decreases. (10)
