THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS.
कम्मत्तण एकं दव्वं भावोति होदि दुविहं तु । पोग्गलपिंडो दव्वं तस्सत्ती भावकम्मं तु ॥ ६ ॥ कर्मत्वेन एकं द्रव्यं भाव इति भवति द्विविधं तु । पुद्गलपिण्डो द्रव्यं तच्छक्तिः भावकर्म तु ॥ ६ ॥
6. From the point of view of Karma-ness (Karma is) of one kind. As dravya Karma (karmic matter) and bháva Karma ( its capacity of fruition ) it is of 2 kinds. But the material aggregate of Karmic molecules is dravya Karma; its power to operate is bháva Karma.
Commentary.
When a Karma for example, the knowledge-obscuring-Karma, operates and the intellect begins to act perversely, we call that perversity a bháva Karma. Here we call the effect, by the name of cause. The bháva Karma is really the power in the knowledgeobscuring-Karma to operate and it is slightly figurative to call the result of this operation as bháva Karma.
तं पुणविहं वाडदालसयं असंखलोगं वा ।
ताणं पुण घादित्ति अघादित्ति य होंति सरणाओ ॥ ७ ॥ तत् पुनरष्टविधं वा अष्टचत्वारिंशच्छुतम संख्यलोकं वा । तेषां पुनः घातीति श्रघातीति च भवतः संज्ञे ॥ ७ ॥
7. Again that ( Karma ) is of 8 kinds or of 148 kinds. or (of kinds which are innumerable X) innumerable (spatial units) of the universe (in number). Again of them there are the divisions into Destructive (gháti, and ) Non-destructive (agháti.)
पाणस्स दंसणस्स य आवरणं वेयणीयमोहणियं ।
उगणामं गोदंतरायमिदि अट्ट पयडीओ ॥ ८ ॥ ज्ञानस्य दर्शनस्य च आवरणं वेदनीयमोहनीयम् । आयुष्कनाम गोत्रान्तरायमिति अष्ट प्रकृतयः ॥ ८ ॥
