The duration of the most heinous karma, which lasts only for an antarmukhurta, should be known as being proportionally very short, like an antarmukhurta.
Introduction
In these two chulikas, it is important to note that the duration of the ayukarma is not subtracted from the bound state, but its duration is only in the three parts of the remaining lifespan. Therefore, the duration of the ayukarma is as long as its bound state.
8 Samyaktvotpatti Chulikā
The most important task for this being, who has been wandering since time immemorial, is to attain samyaktv. This chulikā describes the origin of this samyaktv.
When the time of the being's worldly wandering is reduced to the amount of half a pudgala transformation, then the being becomes eligible to develop samyagdarshan, not before; this is called kalalabdhi. Even after attaining this kalalabdhi, not every being is eligible to attain samyaktv, but only the sentient five-sensed, fully pure being is eligible to attain it. This is true regardless of which of the four gatis the being belongs to. It is important to note here that all beings from the one-sensed in the tiryanch gati to the non-sentient five-sensed do not have the capacity for samyaktv because they do not have a mind, and even among the sentient five-sensed, those who are sammuchchhim sentient cannot develop the first upashma samyaktv. The remaining garbhaja five-sensed, all animals, birds, karmabhumij or bhogabhumij tiryanch, humans, gods, and naraki beings develop the first upashma samyaktv when their kshayas are mild and they are not binding intense anubhaga and excellent state karmas. However, they are binding new karmas that are in the state of antah koda-kodi sagaropama, and only karmas in that state are arising. And only karmas in that state are in existence. This is the matter of the being's internal
eligibility.
Now, the external causes must also be known: Of the beings with the above-mentioned eligibility, the naraki beings develop samyaktv for three reasons: some due to jati-smaran, some due to hearing dharma from a god or other being, and some due to the pain of suffering. The naraki beings from the fourth to the seventh hell develop samyaktv for the remaining two reasons, excluding hearing dharma. The tiryanch beings develop samyaktv for three reasons: some due to jati-smaran, some due to hearing dharma, and some due to seeing the jin-bimba. Humans also develop samyaktv for these same three reasons. The gods from the bhavan trika to the twelfth heaven develop samyaktv for four reasons: due to jati-smaran, due to hearing dharma, due to seeing the glory of the jins, and due to mahardhik
