(2) The karma responsible for the growth of obstructing bodily parts like an additioned tongue, a tooth hidden behind another, a neck-tumour etc.—that is called upaghāta-nāma. (3) The karma on account of which one beats down others through one's appearance or through one's speech-that is called parāghāta-nāma. (4) The karma which causes the appearance of the capacity for in-breathing and out-breathing—that is called śvāsocchvāsa-nāma. (5-6) The karma which causes in a non-hot body the appearance of a hot light—that is called ātapa-nāma, while the karma which causes the appearance of a cold light—that is called uddyota-nāma. (7) The karma which causes the placement of the different bodily parts and sub-parts at their respective proper places that is called nirmāņa-nāma. (8) The karma which causes the appearance of a capacity to establish a ford-in-the-form-of-religion—that is called tirthankara-nāma. 12.
