________________ GOMMATASARA. यन्त्रेण कोद्रवं वा प्रथमोपशमसम्यक्त्वभावयन्त्रेण । मिथ्यात्वं द्रव्यं तु त्रिधा असंख्यगुणहीनद्रव्यक्रमात् ॥ २६ ॥ 15 26. As in a machine, bird-seed (being ground takes 3 forms, husk, corn and powder); so in the machine of (the thought-activity of) the first subsidential right-belief the matter of wrong-belief also (becomes of) 3 kinds; and each one is innumerably less in material Karmic molecules (than the one proceeding it). Commentary. Subsidential right-belief is of 2 kinds. Prathamopashamasamyaktva, the first subsidential right-belief. It may arise (1) in a soul which has never had right-belief, by the subsidence of the 4 error-feeding Passions and Wrong-belief, i. e., the 4 Anantánubandhí Kasháyas and Mithyátva; or (2) in a soul which has had, but has lost right-belief, by the subsidence of the above 5 and of the 2 samyaktva mithyátva, mixed-right-and-wrong-belief, and samyaktva Prakriti, right-belief-clouded-by-slight-wrong-belief. Dvitiyopashama-Samyaktva, the second-subsidential-right-belief. It arises in a saint in the 7th spiritual stage of Perfect Vows. When this saint is preparing to pass on to the 8th stage of New Thought-activity along the line of subsidential advancement, having been already a right-believer of the destruction-subsidence kind, he transforms the nature of the 4 error-feeding Passions into lesser Passions, and causes the subsidence of the 3 sub-classes of rightbelief-deluding-Karma, namely, Mithyátya, Samyaktva Mithyátva, and Samyaktva Prakriti Mithyátva. The right-belief of this saint is called the second-subsidential right-belief. Wrong-belief is of three kinds, Mithyátva, Wrong-belief, Samyaktva-Mithyátva, mixed-right-and-wrong-belief, Samyaktva Prakriti-Mithyátva, right-belief-clouded-by-slight-wrong-belief. Jain Education International The matter of wrong-belief Karma, by being subjected to the thought activity of the First-subsidential right-belief becomes of the above 3 kinds. Wrong-belief has the largest number of molecules. Mixed-right-and-wrong belief has a number of molecules innumerably less than that. And right-belief-clouded by-slightwrong-belief innumerably less than those of mixed-right-and wrong-belief. For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
