(2) Samyam-Asamyam, restraint of some vows, but not of others, found in laymen only. (3) Akama-Nirjara, equanimous submission to the fruition of karma. Bala-Tapa, austerities not based upon right-knowledge. Right belief is also the cause of Celestial Age Karma, but only of the heavenly order. It applies to human and sub-human beings only. A celestial or hellish right believer binds the human age karma. Note also that if a human or sub-human being has bound a particular Age Karma before gaining rightbelief, he must enjoy that. 6. Body making, Nama Karma. The inflow of Ashubha-Nama, a badbody-making karma is caused by a nonstraightforward or deceitful working of the mind, body or speech or by Visamvada, Wrangling etc., wrong belief, envy, backbiting, self-praise, censuring others, etc. Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
