C.-Bhagavana :-Not only karya and karaṇa, but all objects of the Universe, are relatively equal and unequal, and no objects is absolutely equal or absolutely unequal. 425 Acalabhrata:-If it is so, then, why do you try to establish particularly the similarity between karana and karya by saying that "sukha and duḥkha are similar to kārņa etc. ? Still, however, if some object is absolutely similar to another, it may be justified to say so. But when nothing is similar or dissimilar in all respects, and everything is relatively equal or unequal according to you, then, how could it be said that Karaṇa was semilar to Kārya. Bhagavana:-In spite of all objects being relatively equal or unequal, karya resembles karaya, because it is the synonym of kāraņa, while other objects which are the autonyms of kār. ana are dissimilar to it. Hence in the present case, sukha and duḥkha are the synonyms of Karma the karana. The combination of jiva and punya is the cause of sukha, and that of jiva and păpa is the cause of duḥkha, just as śwa, kalyāņa, śubha etc. are the synonyms for sukha, the same are the synonyms for puŋyakarmas also. Similarly, duḥkha and its cause, the papa-karmas, have the same synonyms viz, a-siva, a-kalyāņa and a-subha etc. 54 Jain Education International For Private Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
