MOKSHA MARG PRAKASHAK
them, rather makes effort for controlling external actions or for removing the external instrumental causes. But by removing them the psychic influx (Bhavaasrava) is not uprooted. The Dravyalingi monk does not adore other Devas etc., does not indulge in injury, etc. and sensuous pleasures, does not become angry, controls mind - speech and body; nevertheless all the four kinds ofAsravas (influxes) i.e., false belief, vowlessness, etc. are found in him. He does not indulge in these acts even deceitfully; if he indulges deceitfully then how would he attain birth up to Graiveyaka-heaven? Therefore, the attachment, etc. dispositions found along with false belief in the inner-self are the real Asravas (psychic influxes). But he does not identify them; therefore, he does not have the true belief of Asravatattua also.
Contrary Form of Bandha-tattva (Bondage)
As regards Bandha-tattua he understands the bondage of Papa (inauspicious karmas) in the form of hellish life, etc. caused due to inauspicious dispositions as harmful and bondage of Punya (auspicious karmas) in the form of heavenly life, etc., caused due to auspicious dispositions, as beneficial. But all Jivas are found having malice towards distressing objects (disagreeable associations) and attachment-feeling in pleasant objects (agreeable associations). He too possesses the same type of belief of indulging in attachmentaversion feelings. As he indulges in attachment-aversion feelings pertaining to agreeable-disagreeable objects in the present embodied state, similar type of aptitude is found about indulgence in attachment-aversion feelings pertaining to agreeable-disagree-able objects regarding future embodied existence.
Further, the specific difference of Punya & Papa (virtue & vice) is caused in the Aghati (non-destructive) karmas only due to auspicious and inauspicious thought activity; but the Aghati-karmas are not the destroyers of soul's attributes. Moreover, by auspiciousinauspicious thoughts, the continuous bondage of Ghati (destructive) karmas takes place, all of which are of vicious nature only and the same are the destroyers of soul's attributes. Thus karmic bondage results from impure thoughts, therefore, differentiating them as good or bad is false belief only.
