Book Title: Treatise on Jainism Author(s): Jayantibhai S Sanghvi Publisher: S J SanghviPage 82
________________ A Treatise on Jainism in souls influenced by the Passions, and of the Age-Karma also on special occasions; but the predominance of the above causes will determine the intensity of fruition (anubhaga) of their particular inflow. The special occasions of Age-Karma are 8 in one man's life, as follows : Suppose a man's life is to be 81 years long. The first occasion for binding the AgeKarma will be on his passing 2/3 of it, i.e. when he is 54. The second on his passing 2/3 of the remainder i.e. when he is 72. The third on his passing 2/3 of the remainder, i.e. when he is 78. The fourth on his passing 2/3 of the remainder, i.e. when he is 80. Similarly the fifth when he is 80 years, 8 months. The sixth is at 80 years, 10 months and 20 days. The seventh at 80 years, 11 months, 16 days and 16 hours. The eighth at 80 years, 11 months, 25 days, 13 hours, and 20 minutes. If no Age-Karma is bound yet, the ninth is the last antar-muhurta of his life. The point is that the man is born with his particular Age-Karma already bound. Therefore he must bind the Age-Karma of his next incarnation .at the latest at the last moment. Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.orgPage Navigation
