अध्याय-८
(ghāti) karma, cannot destroy completely the energy (virya) attribute of the soul, but functions only with the support of life-determining (ayuḥ), name-determining (nama), and status-determining (gotra) karmas. Hence, it is placed last in the sequence. (see 'Gommaṭasarakarmakāṇḍa', part-1, p. 9-10, and 'Nayacakko', verse 83, p. 47).
