Auspicious thought activity should be
psychical merit imparting happiness, And a karma matter becoming the state of thought
activity be material merit, as it is called.
51
Demerit, devoid of the characteristics of merit,
is of material and psychical nature. In short, thus I understand,
by your grace, Oh Lord.
52
Due to his thought activity, karmas flow into a being;
this is influx. Or vibratory activity with subdivisions, such as
attachment, is material inflow of karmas.
53
Hindrance of influx comprising the nature
called physical and psychical, Is accomplished manifoldly by austerity, control,
and so forth; verily this is stoppage.
