VIII 10
6 (421b) a. For all beings (HAMG) there are eight kinds of karman (kamma-pagadī). b. For all beings each of these kinds has an infinite number of units (avibhāga-pariccheya). c. Each separate soul-unit (jīva-paesa) of a being in general (jīva) may be surrounded (siya āvedhiya-parivedhiya) or not (siya no ā.-p.) by an infinite number of units (avibhāga-pariccheya) of each of the eight kinds of karman. As to the different kinds of beings taken separately ävedhiya-parivedhiya applies to HAG in all cases and to M in the case of the four aghāi-kammas, whereas siya ā. p. siya no ā.-p. applies to M only in the case of the four ghāi-kammas.
avibhāga-pariccheya: niramśà amsa ity arthaḥ, Abhay., scil. paesā.-On c cf. Tattv. VIII 25. In the general rule no ā. p. applies to the kevalin, Abhay. The term (a)ghāi-kamma (cf. Tattv. IX 11c) does not appear in the text and was used here only for briefness' sake.
d. (422b) The possibility of the simultaneous occurrence of the different kinds of karman in one being may be summarized in the following three rules: [1] he who possesses mohanijja kamma necessarily also possesses (tassa ... niyamā atthi) the other kinds of karman; [2] he who possesses nāņāvaranijja, damsan'āvaranijja or antarāiya kamma also possesses the other kinds of karman except mohanijja kamma which he m or not (tassa ... siya atthi siya natthi): [3] he who possesses veyanijja, āuya-, nāma- or goya-kamma also possesses the other kinds of karman except nān'āvaranijja, damsan'āvaranijja, mohanijja and antarāiya kamma which he may possess or not.
?(423b) The soul (jīva) is poggali scil. possesses atoms of matter, namely in the senses, as well as poggala, i.e. individual. This is also true for every being in the samsāra, but not for the Siddha who is only poggala. **
