149 (2) The faith-deluding sub-species does not mature through transition into conduct-deluding sub-species and vice-versa. (3) The sub-species of life-span karma do not mature through transition into other sub-species of the same karma. (4) The righteousness-deluding karma can also not mature through its transition into righteousness-cum-non-righteousness deluding karma sub-species.

The sub-species of righteousness-cum-non-righteousness deluding karma can mature through transition into righteousnessdeluding karma.

The maturation of karmic species or sub-species is designated according to the karma whose bondage is producing the observed effect. 2. The transition of karmic sub-species requires specific causes for maturation. However, pre-maturation could be possible in case of all karmic species. 3. When fruition of karmic species takes place, the species begin to rise up to yield various types of experiences in the living beings depending upon the nature of fruitioned karmic species or sub-species. After fruition, the karmic species get dissociated from the living 4. The Svetambara version of aphorism 8.21 has a different rendering having a long vowel in 'Anubhāva' in contrast with the short vowel in 'Anubhava' of Digambara version. The meanings of both the terms are nearly similar, hence, commentrators have not taken the renderings into account. Both the terms mean the fruitional or experiencing effect (of karmas) involving its strength, power or intensity. 5. Besides the two names as per different renderings (as above), there is a third name also for this fruitional intensity bondage. Moolacă ra and Dhavalā mentions 'Anubhāga' as its name which means the internal energy and capacity of fruition of the karmic bond system.
