Samuyusāra जम्हा दु जहण्णादो णाणगुणादो पुणो वि परिणमदि।
अण्णत्तं णाणगुणो तेण दु सो बंधगो भणिदो॥८॥ jamhā du jahannādo ņāņaguņādo puno vi pariņumadi. annattam ņānaguņo tena du so bamdhago bhanido..8
दसणणाणचरित्तं जं परिणमदे जहण्णभावेण।
णाणी तेण दु बज्झदि पोग्गलकम्मेण विविहेण॥९॥ damsanaņānacarittam jam parinamade jahannabhāveņa.
nānī tena du bajjhadi poggalakammena vivihena..9
(Jamhā cahuviha) As stated before, the fourfold conditions of (influx and bondage-physical series with the auxiliary causal potency] (ņāņa-damsaņagunehim samaye-samaye anenabheyam bumdhamte) affect the psychical states of consciousness each and every instant of time and determine bondages of various types; (ņāņi du abamdho tti) [but] the enlightened soul is (relatively] free from bondage
. (Jamhā du ņāņaguno) Because the strenght of the purity of consciousness (at the very dawn of enlightenment) (jahannādo ņāņaguņādo) is of minimum intensity, (puno vi annattam pariņamudi) and keeps on fluctuating (i.e., is not steady) (teņa du so badhago bhanido) that is why it is said to be the condition of bondage of karma.
(Damsaņā-ņāņa-carittam jahanna bhāveņa jam pariņamade) The spiritual purification of the three jewels-right world-view, knowledge, and conduct-is minimum to start with (teņa du ņāņi vivihena poggalakammaņa bajjhadi) that is why the enlightened [inspite of attaining enlightenment] is also subjected to the bondage of various types of kurma.
Annotations :
In the preceding verses we briefly discussed how the soul attains enlightenment by its purity. In the above verses, the author underlines the necessity of further efforts to enhance the purity still further and augment its energy for final consummation and total freedom from bondage. The soul has succeeded in awakening the beginningless hold of the perversity of world-view but this does not mean the end of the struggle.
