136. Question: What are the *ananubandhi* kṣayās called?
Answer: Since *mithyātva* is the cause of the infinite world, it is called infinite. The *kṣayās* that are connected with this infinite, i.e., which destroy the *samyaktvaguna* of the soul, are called *ananta-anubandhi* kṣayās. 1
140. Question: What are the *apratyakhyāna-āvaraṇa*, *pratyakhyāna-āvaraṇa*, and *sanjvalana* kṣayās?
Answer: The *kṣayās* that destroy *ekadeśa-cāritra* are called *apratyakhyāna-āvaraṇa* kṣayās. The *kṣayās* that destroy *sakala-cāritra* are called *pratyakhyāna-āvaraṇa* kṣayās. The *kṣayās* that destroy *yathākhyāta-cāritra* are called *sanjvalana* kṣayās.
1. *Ananta-anubandhi* is also said to be destructive of *cāritra* along with *samyaktvaguna* (Dhavala 1/164, Pañcādhyāyī Uttarārdha 1140). This is also correct. The point is that the function of *ananta-anubandhi* kṣayās is to maintain the infinite flow of *apratyakhyāna-āvaraṇa* etc. kṣayās. It (the *ananta-anubandhi*) itself does not obtain any *cāritra*. (Dhavala 6, p. 42) | The activity of the *ananta-anubandhi* quartet in *cāritra* is not futile either, because the *cāritra* is destroyed by the infinite flow of *apratyakhyāna-āvaraṇa* etc. which is caused by the *ananta-anubandhi* kṣayās, which is contrary to the futility of the *ananta-anubandhi* kṣayās (Dhavala 6/43); thus the dual nature of the *ananta-anubandhi* is established.
