(Vishuddhi), (3) precept (Deshaná), (4) Completency (Prayogya), (5) efficiency (Karana), the first four are common (i 8. attainable by all), but the efficiency Karana) is attained only by (soul capable of) right-belief, (and liberation).
Commentary. Kshayopasama-Labdhi, destructive-subsidential attainment, is attainment by a soul (by the subsidence, destruction and operation of certain Karmas) of such senses, mind, etc., that he may be able to acquire right-belief.
Vishuddhi Labdhi-virtue attainment, is attainment of a disposi. tion for good, and against bad actions.
Deshaná Labdhi, precept attainment, is attainment of an inclination to know the Truth. This reduces the Sthiti, duration of Karmas except the Ayukarma, the age Karma, to a maximum of Antar Kodá Kodi, inter crore of crore, Ságaras and a minimum of one crore (Ságaras).
Práyogya-Labdhi, competency-attainment, is attainment of thought activity which further reduces the Sthiti, duration of the 7 • Karmas, i.e., all except the Ayukarma, age-Karma. But as to intensity of fruition the reduction applies only to demeritorious Karmas. The meritorious Karmas are proportionally increased in intensity of fruition (Anubhága).
Karana Labdhi -efficiency attainment, is attainment of thoughtactivity which must cause right-belief in one Antar-muhúrta, within 48 minutes.
