15 Umāsvāti lists moksa as one of the tattvas or reals, which represent categories that a person with the right world-view (samyag-darśana) has belief in. 'The right world-view is believing in the meaning of the tattvas. The tattvas are living substance, non-living substance, inflow [of karman], bondage (of karman), stopping the inflow of karman), falling away [of karman) and moksa! (tattvārtha-śraddhānam samyag-darśanam / [...] /jīvājīvāsrava-bandha-samvara-nirjarā-mokṣās tattvam / TS 1.2, 1.4). For more on the inflow, bondage, stopping and falling away of karman, see chapters 6, 8 and 9 of TS with commentaries. See also: Glasenapp (1942), Jaini (1998), Jaini (2000c), Johnson (1995) and Wiley (2000).

20‘And owing to the absence of the cause of [karmic) bondage, there is no manifestation of the next birth. This state is characterised by] the cutting off of the previous birth and no manifestation of the next birth' (bandha-hetv-abhāvāc cottara-janmano 'prādurbhāvah. eşāvasthitih pūrva-janmana uccheda uttara-janmāprādurbhāvah. TT 10.3). The terminology used here reminds of TS 10.2: 'Owing to the absence of the cause of [karmic] bondage and the falling away (of karman), the release from all karman is mokşa' (bandha-hetv-abhāva-nirjarābhyām krtsna-karma-vipramokso mokṣaḥ /). See also: Tsvet 10.2 and the already mentioned TS Svet 10.3 (bandha-hetv-abhāva-nirjarābhyām / krtsna-karma-ksayo mokşah /), which are nearly identical to TS Dig 10.2.
