[312] The living being who attains the first cessation of karma (prathamopaśama samyaktvako) is a five-sensed being, conscious, with false belief (mithyādr̥ṣṭi), sufficient (paryāpta), and all-purified. || 4 ||
Since the results that are fit for attaining the right faith (samyaktvako) are not possible for beings from one-sensed to five-sensed without consciousness (asaṁjñī), therefore, in the sūtra, the word 'five-sensed' (pañcindio) is used to negate them. The living beings with the false belief of the type of 'sāsādanasamyakdr̥ṣṭi', 'samyagmithyādr̥ṣṭi', 'kṣāyikasamyagdr̥ṣṭi', and 'vedakasamyagdr̥ṣṭi' do not attain the first cessation of karma (prathamopaśama samyaktvako). Therefore, in the sūtra, the word 'false belief' (mithyādr̥ṣṭi) is used to negate them. Although the living being with the false belief of the type of 'vedakasamyagdr̥ṣṭi', who is moving towards the ascent of the cessation of karma (upaśamaśreṇi), attains the cessation of karma (upaśamasamyaktvako), but because of his birth with the right faith (samyaktvako), he is not called the first cessation of karma (prathamopaśama samyaktvako). Therefore, the living being with the false belief (mithyādr̥ṣṭi) who attains the first cessation of karma (prathamopaśama samyaktvako) is only in the sufficient state (paryāpta), not in the insufficient state (aparyāpta). This is the meaning of this sūtra.
When the living being establishes the state of being equal to the number of inner-koḍakoḍi-sāgara-upamas, which are less than a thousand sāgara-upamas, by the number of all his karmas, then he attains the first right faith (prathamasamyaktvako). || 5 ||
The living being with the false belief (mithyādr̥ṣṭi) who attains the first cessation of karma (prathamopaśama samyaktvako) removes the inner-muhūrta-moha (antarmuhūrtamoha) for a period of time, i.e., he performs the inner-purification (antarakaraṇa). || 6 ||
The meaning of this is that the living being with the false belief (mithyādr̥ṣṭi) from the beginning of time (anādi), after spending the time of the lower-karma (adhaḥkaraṇa) and the previous-karma (apūrvakaraṇa) results, when he spends a large number of times related to the non-stopping-karma (anivṛttikaraṇa) results, then he performs the inner-purification (antarakaraṇa) of the false belief (mithyātvaprakṛti). The removal of the inner-muhūrta-only states (antarmuhūrtamātra sthiti) in the middle, leaving the lower and upper states of the desired karma (vivākṣita karma), is called inner-purification (antarakaraṇa) by the special result (pariṇāmaviśeṣa). While performing this inner-purification (antarakaraṇa), he crosses the inner-muhūrta-only state (antarmuhūrtamātra sthiti) of the false belief (mithyātvakarma) that arises before the time of its beginning, and performs the removal of the inner-muhūrta-only states (antarmuhūrtamātra sthiti) above it, and throws some of them into the first state (antarakaraṇase nīceki antarmuhūrtamātra sthiti) and some into the second state (antarakaraṇase ūparaki antarmuhūrtamātra sthiti). In this way, he removes the removal of the inner-muhūrta-only states (antarmuhūrtamātra sthiti) of the false belief (mithyātvaki).
He divides the strong false belief (ohāddēdr̥ṇa mithyāttāṁ) into three parts: the right belief (sammattam), the false belief (mithyāttāṁ), and the right desire (sammāmichchattāṁ). || 7 ||
