So the above thirtynine states or activities are manifestations of the inflow of matter into the soul, the Asrava which is called the 'Sāmparāyika' or what confines the self within the mundane sphere. It should not be thought, however, that the inflow in all people is of one and the same nature. The Jaina thinkers point out that there is a difference in the Asrava in different persons, even when it is caused in them by the same form of activity; for, this self-same activity itself may be different modes in different people. A particular Asrava-causing activity may be in some people, (1) intense (tivra), in others, it may be, (2) mild (manda), (3) in some again, a difference in an activity is caused by the intention behind the act of the doer' (jñāta-bhavā); (4) sometimes, again the doer is cious of his intention behind his act, and this causes a difference in the Asrava-causing activity (ajñāta-bhāva); (5) the agent's own capacity (vīrya) and his place in life sometimes cause a difference in his activity; (6) often, however, the difference in the inflow-inducing activity is due to the character of 'what it is dependent on' (adhikarana). This last, viz., the 'Adhikarana' refers to the fact that an Asrava-causing activity may greatly depend upon either the self or the non-self. The Adhikarana or the dependence of the inflow may be of two kinds in as much as it may refer either to 35 Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.orgPage Navigation
