Sütras 16-18]
Inhibition, Falling and off Emancipation
apramādādayaḥ trayo'pi pratyākhyānānapekṣāḥ, āntaravaiśadyasādhyatvät.
(Aph.) Absence of activity consists in the absence of vibration. (XV)
(Gloss) This happens in the state of sailesi (wherein the soul is as firm as a rock) which occurs in the fourteenth stage of spiritual development. The arrest, by means of meditation and the like, of the auspicious activities by the ascetics is also a part of the inhibition qua 'absence of activity'. All the (other) three viz. 'absence of remissness' and the like are not due to renunciation, being exclusively due to the internal spiritual purity.
१६. तपसा कर्मविच्छेदादात्मनैर्मल्यं निर्जरा ।
16. tapasā karmavicchedäd ätmanairmalyam nirjarā.
(Aph.) Falling off (nirjarā) is the purification of the soul on account of the separation of karmic matter by means of penance. (XVI)

17. upacārāt tapo'pi.
kāraṇe karyopacārāt tapo'pi nirjar ā-śabda-vācyaṁ bhavati, tata evā
dvādaśavidha'sau.
(Aph.) Penance also (is known as 'falling off') by way of transference of epithet. (XVII)
(Gloss) By means of the transference of (the characteristic of) the effect to the cause, penance (which is the cause of 'falling off') can also be expressed by the term 'falling off'. Consequently that (viz. 'falling off') is twelvefold (because penance is twelvefold).
