SAMAYSARA
पुद्गलकर्म मिथ्यात्व योगोऽविरतिरज्ञानमजीव ।
उपयोगोऽज्ञानमविरतिर्मिथ्यात्व च जीवस्तु ॥८८॥ 88 Being of the nature of karmic matter, erroneous faith, yoga (of thought, word and deed), non-discipline, and nescience, pertain to ajīva—non-soul Being of the nature of Self (upayoga) nescience, non-discipline, erroneous faith, pertain to soul
COMMENTARY Because of this two-fold aspect of the karmas, each must be called by different names, jiva-methyātva when the bhāva aspect is emphasised, and the ajīva-methyātva when the dravya aspect is emphasised Similarly such different names are to be applied to the rest of the modes from the different aspects
उवओगस्स अणाई परिणामा तिण्णि मोहजुत्तस्स ।
मिच्छत्त अण्णाण अविरदि भावो य णादव्वो ॥८९॥ Uvavogassa anai parinama tinnimoha juttassa Michchattam annanam aviradı bhavo ya nadavoo (89)
उपयोगस्यानादय परिणामास्त्रयो मोहयुकास्य।
मिथ्यात्वमज्ञानमविरतिभावश्च ज्ञातव्य ॥८९॥ 89 The Self of the nature of upayoga (pure thought and perception) associated with delusion from beginningless eternity undergoes three different kinds of (corrupt) modifications Let it be understood that these three are wrong faith, wrong knowledge, and wrong conduct
COMMENTARY The Self by itself is perfectly pure and flawless like a clear crystal But this clear crystal will put on the colour of the object which is attached to its surface Its surface will appear blue or green or yellow accordingly as a betal leaf, a plantain leaf, or a golden leaf is tacked on to it The clear crystal appears coloured in different ways because of the associated objects Similarly the Self in itself pure and clear puts on the characteristic of the associated objects in this cause, mohaniya karma The karmic association is throughout the beginningless infinity of time
