________________ ८२ : मुनि श्रीहजारोमल स्मृति-ग्रन्थ and sorrow come under the category of the organic feeling, as they are connected with the discordant working of internal organs, while the feeling of cold and warmth belong to the speciāl sense-feeling, for they are related to touch. Besides these, thered are state to be other sense-feelings of hearing, smell, taste and touch, because even the jīva (Soul or being), born in the mother's womb, transforms five colours, five tastes, two smells and eight touches. 51 Desire and Gratification of Desire (Kāmabhoga) The Bhagavati Sutra throws a welcome light upon the psycho-physical aspects of desire (Kāmā) and gratification of desire (bhoga). Kāmās, (desires) and bhogas (gratification of desire) are explained on the principal of the psycho-physical phenomena thus that they are corporeal (rūpī) and endowed with both consciousness, and unconciousness because they are of the beings (sacittāvi kāma acittāvi kāmā, acittāvi bhoga).53 They are stated to be two kinds of kämā (desire), viz. sound (sabda) and object of beauty (rupa), while bhoga (gratification of desire) is of three kinds viz. smell, taste and touch (gandha, rasa and sparsa) as they involve the mental and physical enjoyments respectively. Emotion An emotion is a complex feeling of mental agitation, usually tinged with pleasure or pain, that is aroused by ideas or perceptions and attended with its characteristic bodily expression, and also reinforced by the organic sensations arising from it. "It is the experience of behaving in a certain way"54 As already explained in the beginning there are two transformations of the psychic process, viz. Rāga (feeling of attachment and Dosa (Dveşa dislike or aversion). Räga and Dvese are divided into four Kasāyas, i.e. passions, viz. krodha (anger) māna (pride), māyä (deceitfulness) and lobha (greed). This analysis shows the emergence of emotions in the form of passions and quasi-passions, appearing in different degrees due to the rise of karma. Passion is correlated to colour which is associated with feeling, because there is the material colour of the karmic matter of the body, e.g. the karma-pudgalas (karmic matters) of these four kinds of passions are endowed with five colours, five tastes, two smells and four touches. “Aha bharate khoe...............Goyamā. Pancavanne pancarase dugandhe cauphāse pannatte............māne............māyā............ lobhe............jaheva kohe”.56 "Pejje does............jaheva kohe taheva cauphāse."57 Four Passions Krodha (Anger) Krodha is the self-expression aggravating the mind; the first repulsive reation of it is resistance and resentment to any attempt from outside to flout it. Māna Māna is the consciousness of self-respect to measure the self to maintain dignity, and to show itself distinct from others, i.e. self-maintenance. Māyā Māyā is the expression of the inner self, self-display, self-expression, and self-exhibition, and * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * !!!!!!!!!!::::::::::::::::::::!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
