Nature of this Karmabandha is manifold on account of its duration, intensity and quantity, and its specific bondage and rise also (become) intense, mild and middling. 36.
तत्र प्रदेशवन्धो योगात् तदनुभवनं कषायवशात् ।। स्थितिपाकविशेषस्तस्य भवति लेश्याविशेषेण ॥३७॥
Of these (four kinds), quantity is on account of psychophysical activities, intensity is the result of passions and duration and enjoyment are on account of Leśyā (=colour of the soul). 37.
ताः कृष्णनीलकापोततैजसीपद्मशुक्लनामानः । श्लेष इव वर्णबन्धस्य कर्मबन्धस्थितिविधायः ॥३८॥
इति कर्माधिकारः ॥४॥ Black, dark-blue, grey, yellow, red and white are the Lesyas which constitute the cause of length of time of the bondage of Karma, like a glue, which is responsible for firm fixation of painting on canvas.38
