found in householder's state) or Muni Dharma (complete continence & vows found in true monk's state) -- such state only is regarded as Charitra (conduct). Such degrees of reduction in passions is not found in an incontinent person. Therefore, here (from first to fourth Gunasthana) incontinence exists. In spite of the states of intensity and feebleness in passions, as from the Pramatta Gunasthana onwards everywhere the state of the soul is called the state of Sakal Sanyama (complete continence), similarly, from the Mithyatva (first etc.) up to Asanyata (fourth) Gunasthanas everywhere the state of soul is called the state of Asanyama (incontinence) only.

Such happens the state of Anantaanubandhi anger, etc., four passions, on evolution of right belief. Therefore, the attainment of Samyaktva (right-belief) is also stated to have been evolved on subsidence, etc. of seven Prakritis.
