Niyamasāra
नियमसार
the soul with delusion (moha), attachment (rāga) and aversion (dvesa), engenders four kinds of bondage on fruition of the karmas.
All worldly souls witness the fruition of past-bound karmas. Fruition of karmas, by itself, is not the cause of bondage of fresh karmas. When the soul entertains delusion (moha), attachment (rāga) and aversion (dvesa) on fruition of karmas, it enters into bondage of fresh karmas. Bondage of karmas is of four kinds: nature or species (prakrti), duration (sthiti), fruition (anubhāga), and quantity of space-points (pradeśa). Both, knowledge and fruition of karmas, do not cause fresh bondage of karmas; only delusion, attachment and aversion that the soul entertains cause fresh bondage of karmas. These – delusion (moha), attachment (rāga) and aversion (dvesa)- are to be discarded.
