THE PATH OF NIRVANA OR LIBERATION 155
The Jain Saint Kunda Kunda Acharya says in Samayasâra
जीवस्स णत्थि रागो णविदोसो णेव विजदे मोहो णोपचया णकम्मं णोकम्मं चाविसे णत्थि dezzfegion agogone affecierez जेणदु एदे सव्वे पुग्गलदव्वस्स परिणामा.
Jivassa natthi râgo navi doso neva vijjade môho, No pachchaya na kammam no kammam châvi se natthi 56 Nevaya jiva tthânâ na guna tthânâ ya atti jîvassa, Jenadu ede sa ove puggala davvassa pari nâmâ

In the pure soul, there is neither affection nor hatred nor delusion, neither causes of asrava, nor karmas, nor quasi-karmas even. 56.
Neither there are soul classes nor spiritual stages in the soul, because all these are the modifications of matter only, (because they appear in soul in connection with matter).
Samayasara Kalasa says the same:zuienen zomìaçgien fraimiei aågarer ja: 1 तेनैवान्तस्तत्वत पश्यतोऽमीनोदृष्टाः स्युदृष्टिमेकं परंस्यात् ॥
Varnadya va râga mohâdayo va chinna bhavah sarva evasya punsah.
Tenaivântastattvalah pasyto mî-no driştah syurdṛiştâ mekam param syat 5/2.
All these colours etc. or affection and delusion etc. modifications are other than the pure soul; therefore
