and at the moment of bonding with the life-span-determining
Karma, the bonding with eight types of Karma takes place. Question: Besides the analogy of the married female child, is there
any technical detail regarding the requirement of some time
for a bonded Karma to become operative? Answer: Yes, the following description included in Appendix-6 is
worth noting: “At the time of bonding the Karma gets bonded for a specified time period known as 'Sthiti'. This duration depends on the Prakrti of the Karma as well as on Kaşāya that is responsible for the bonding. There are some schemes of depositing money in a financial institution under which the deposited money cannot be released for some time, and after completing that period it is continuously released in many installments. Thus there are two times: (i) when the release starts, and (ii) when the whole deposit is released. In case of Karma also there are two types of times: (i) The time that bonded Karma do not come in fruition or the time after which the release starts. It is known as Ābādhā time or Ābādhā Kāla, and (ii) the time when the final installment is released. It is known as Sthiti." Technically, in short, Ābādhā time or Ābādhā Kāla of any bonded Karma is the time required for the bonded Karma to become mature, i.e., a bonded Karma starts giving fruits only after the completion of its Ābādhā time. रागो दोसो मोहो य आसवा णत्थि सम्मदिट्ठिस्स। GEET 34THaydu faune ac u yolun aifa 1117711 हेदू चदुव्वियप्पो अट्ठवियप्पस्स कारणं भणिदं । af fo I TCT afheid u dosifa 11178||| Rāgo doso moho ya āsavā natthi sammāditthissa.
