3. MOHANIYA KARMA :
There are 26 kinds of this karma. The people under the impact of this karma fall into two groups (1) Darshanmohaniya (2) Charitramohaniya (this is of 25 kinds).
1) DARSHAN MOHANIYA = MITYATVA OR FALSE BELIEF: On account of its effect, jivas lose faith in the tatvas expounded by the omniscient ones and develop a taste for false doctrines. At the time of its bondage this karma is single but later since it has three collections at the time of its emerging to effect, it becomes diversified into three forms namely Mityatva mohaniya, Mishra mohaniya and Samyaktva mohaniya. On account of the Samyaktva, the faith in the doctrines becomes sound but breaches may occur. The Mishra mohaniya makes a man indifferent to false doctrines as well as to noble doctrines expounded by the omniscient one.
2) CHARITRAMOHANIYA (this has 25 sub-groups)
(16 kashay mohaniya + nokashay, mohaniya)
Kash means samsar; ay means gaining. So Kashay is that which makes the samsar go forward. They are anger, pride, deception, avarice, etc. They contain within themselves attachments and hatred. Anger and pride are hatred; deception and avarice are attachment. Each of the four kashyas such as Krodha has four Ananthanubandhi. So, they amount to 16 Kashayas.
Nokashays are those that are provoked by Kashayas or things like laughter that provoke kashay. Laughter, sorrow, pleasure, (being pleased with what one likes) displeasure (being displeased with what one dislikes), fear (fearing one's own decisions) contempt, purushved (desiring the company of woman) strived (desiring union with a man), napumsakved (desiring both).
4) ANTARAY KARMA is of five kinds :
(1) Danantaray (2) Labhantaray (3) Bhogantaray (4) Upabhogantaray (5) Viryantaray.
