________________ 140 TULSI-PRAJNA The Karmas work in coordination with each other, and this coordination takes place not only among the three types of karma taken singly but also as taken in relation with each other. Jaina philosophy gives three main states of karmas, firstly the karmas is bound with the soul bondage, then there is a period of preparation for relisation (endurance), then the state of operation, The karma phenomenology of the Jain also mentions that after the operative state of karmas, they become detached from the soul. The soul manifestations may be grouped into two classes namely operative and non-operative one. When the operative manifestations pre-suppose the existence of destructionsubsidence of some karmas, they become the destructive subsidental manifestations and when they are not so based. they are said to be simply operative ones. The non-operative manifestation may pre-suppose destruction or subsidence of karmas thus giving rise to destructive or subsidental types of manifestations. If these non-operative manifestations are not so based, they are said to be natural manifestations. This divisions of conscious manifestations of the jiva is the very foundation of the Jainas or karmas psychology. The psychological problems arise only in case of the soul, which are subject to karmic influence, Jaina psychology is ultimately based on the joint-effect of the powers of the soul and the reactions due to the karmic energies. Whole of our life structure is ba sed upon the working of karma. Every action generates certain potential cpergies which on passing a certain length of period changes then. selves into actual effects. The effects may also appear in life after death. Our good actions produce a certain efficiency called merit (Punya) and bad actions produce some deficiency called demerit (Papa) in our souls and these persist long after our actions have ceased and disa. ppeared. When men chose the karma they are frec, in the rise of that karma, they become dependeat, as when onu climbs a tree one is free, but when one falls from it, Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
