In **Padmeemansa**, what is the nature of the **Jnanavaraaniyaveeyana** (knowledge-obscuring pain) - is it **utkrussta** (excellent), **anukrussta** (inferior), **jahanna** (low), or **ajahanna** (not low)? ||3||
Ukkasssa va Anukkasssa va Jahanna va Ajahanna va ||4||
The **Jnanavaraaniyaveeyana** is **utkrussta**, **anukrussta**, **jahanna**, and **ajahanna** ||4||
Evam Sattanam Kammanam ||5|| Similarly, the nature of the remaining seven **karmas** should be understood ||5||
Saamitta duviham Jahannapade Ukkassapade ||6|| **Saamitta** (attachment) is of two types - **jahanna** (low) and **utkrussta** (excellent) ||6||
Saamittana Ukkassapade Naanavaraaniyaveeyana Bhava do Ukkassiya Kassa? ||7|| In the **utkrussta** (excellent) state of **Saamitta**, whose **Jnanavaraaniyaveeyana** is **utkrussta** (excellent)? ||7||
Annadaren Panchindaiyen Sanni micchaitti na Sabahi Pajjatthihi Pajjattagaden Saagaruvajogen Jagaren Niyama Ukkassasan Kili ten Bandhallayam Jassa Tam Santakammmatthi ||8||
The **utkrussta** (excellent) **Jnanavaraaniyaveeyana** is experienced by the being who is bound by **utkrussta** (excellent) **sanklesha** (afflictions), who is **panchendriya** (five senses), **sanjni** (conscious), **mithyadristi** (false belief), **sabahhi pajjatthi** (possessing all perfections), **pajjattagada** (attained the state of perfection), **saagaruvajoga** (possessing the right use of the body), **jagare** (awake), and **niyama** (following the rules) ||8||
This sutra describes the nature of the being who binds the **utkrussta** (excellent) **anubhaga** (experience). It states that this being must be **sanjni** (conscious) and **panchendriya** (five senses). This implies that **asanjni** (unconscious), **vikaleendriya** (disabled senses), and **ekendriya** (one sense) beings cannot bind the **utkrussta** (excellent) **anubhaga**. The word "**annadaren**" indicates that the being who binds the **utkrussta** (excellent) **anubhaga** does not need to possess specific qualities like **veda** (knowledge) or **avagahana** (understanding). It can be any **sanjni** (conscious) and **panchendriya** (five senses) being with or without **veda** and **avagahana**. The binding of the **utkrussta** (excellent) **anubhaga** is not possible in the **aparaptakala** (incomplete time), **darshanoupayogakala** (time of using knowledge), or **supta** (sleeping) states. Therefore, the sutra uses words like "**pajjat**" to indicate the **paraptakala** (complete time), **saagaruvajoga** (right use of the body), and **jagare** (awake) states. The binding of the **utkrussta** (excellent) **anubhaga** occurs only through **utkrussta** (excellent) **sanklesha** (afflictions). This implies that it does not occur in the first five **sanklesha** (afflictions) states - **manda** (mild), **mandatar** (milder), **mandatam** (mildest), **tivra** (intense), **tivratar** (more intense) - but only in the final **tivratam** (most intense) state.
