Commentary:

Adhah Pravritta transferrence occurs only during bondage of the sub-classes till their cessation of bondage, but wrong-belief �Karma does not transfer into another during stage of wrong-belief as has been already stated above. Matter of those sub-classes, whose bondage has ceased, is transferred into another, from the fourth stage till the seventh stage. This is called Vldhyata San�kamana. From 8th to 11th stage, those bad sub-classes which are not bound there, are transferred into others. This transferrence is called Guna Sankramana. It also should be noted that. there is Guna Sankramana of Karmic matter, for one Antal� muhurta during the time of acquirement of the first Subsidential-right-belief. and also during the full time of Mixed-right-and-wrong; belief, and of clouded-right-belief when Wrong-belief-karmic-matter is going to be destroyed with the help of New-thought-activity, till the last but one part of that section of time. During the remaining last part there is Sarva Sankramana i. e., full transferrence of matter.

Commentary.

There are 148 sub-classes of 8 Karmas. out of which 122 are counted among the operative sub-classes. Five kinds of molecular bondage, and 5 kinds of intercession, have been included in .five kinds of bodies, while twenty kinds of colour etc.. are counted as four only. 10+16=26 being thus excluded from 148, 122 only are left. All five kinds of transferrence occurring among 122 sub-classes are detailed in verses 419 to 425.

The number of sub-classes enumerated in these verses comes to 39 + 30+ 7 + 20 + 1 + 1 + 12 + 4+4+4-=122. It should be noted that they do not include four age Karmas, because transferrence of matter of one age Karma to another is not possible, as only one kind of age Karma is operative at a time. (vide Gatha 410); but four sub-classes of colour etc.. have been counted twice, because they are both good and bad; thus although 118 sub-cla3ses are mentioned in the five kinds of transferrence. yet they really came upto 122. as the 4 colour etc., are to be counted twice. as good and bad.

427 -428. One hundred and twenty-one sub-classes (,. e., all the 122) except wrong-belief, belong to Adhah Pravritta (transferrence). Subtracting (47, from 122 viz.) thirty-nine, beginning from (the fourteen of which there is) bondage� cessation in slightest delusion stage, physical. two (body and limbs), Tirthankara, adamantine (bones), masculine (sex), the three (passions) perfect-right-conduct-deluding (i. e., anger, pride and deceit), the remaining number of seventy�-five sub-classes belong to Guns. transferrence. These should be known the rule of sub-classes. 

Commentary.

Transference, thus, works as follows :�

39 sub. classes have only Adhah Pravritta.

30      �        �        �        Adhah. Vidhyata, Guna and Sarva.

7        �        �        �        Guna and Adhah.

20      �        �        �        Vidhyata, Adhah and Guna.

1        �        �        has Vidhyata, Guna and Sarva.

1        �        �        �        Udvelana, Adhah, Guna and Sarva.

 

12 sub-classes have Udvelana Vidhyata, Adhah, Guna and Sarva.

4        �        �        �        Adhah and Sarva.

4        �        �        �        Adhah and Vidhyata.

4        �        �        �        Adhah, Guna and Sarva.

 

Among all these, the highest number of sub-classes belong to Adhah, Guna and Vidhyata kinds of transference,

Adhah has 39+30 + 7 + 20+ 1+12+ 4+4+ 4-121.

Guna has 30+7 +20+ 1+1+ 12+4-=75.

Vidhyata has 30 + 20 + t + 12+ 4=67. 

Udvelana sub-classes are only 13, as said in Gatha 415.. while Sarva covers 30+ 1+ 1+ 12+4+ 4 =52 sub-classes vide Gatha 417.

429. The duration and fruition bondage takes place as a rule till (the 10th stage of) slightest (delusion), so there is tramferrence of matter in bondage till that slightest delusion only. 

Commentary.

Duration and fruition are caused by passionate thought-activity. Passions cease to operate beyond the 10th stage of slightest delusion, and therefore Karmic matter can not have these two kinds of bon�dage beyond that stage. Though pleasure-feeling Karmic matter is attracted towards the soul in the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth stages owing to the soul�s vibrations, it has only the remaining two bond ages i.e., of kind and quantity, Prakriti and Pradesha.

Transferrence of one sub-class of Karmic matter to that of any other sob. class is possible only through passions, mild or strong. In the total absence of passions there is no transferrence of Karmic matter beyond the 10th stage.

430-436. Sarva-bhagahara, (Sarva Division), (in Sarva Sankramana is by) one Guna (division), in Guna Sankra�mana is by innumerable tips of Sarva which is equal to) innumerable part of Palya Ardhachhedas. Innumerable fold of this is Utkarshana and Apakarshana (division). (Its innu�merable fold is) the Adhah Pravritta divisioI} in (Adhah San. kramana). Innumerable fold of this, is the multiplier in - vibratory division). (Innumerable fold of this, is the number) of Shaltikas of one Guna Hani (in duration of Karmas). (Thus each one) is innumerable fold (of the former) respectively (The number of) Ardhachhedas of Palya (is the above), increased by (the number of) Ardhachhedas of Palya Varga Shah\k6.. The first square root of Palya and the ins�tants of) one Guna Dani (in duration of Karmas) (are each) innumerable fold ( of the former) respectively. Annyonya�bhyasta Rashi (in duration of Karmas) and Palya itself . (are each) innumerable fold (of the former) respectively.

Its numerable fold is the maximum duration of Karmas.. (Its innumerable fold is) Vidhyat8 (division) (in Vidhyata San�kramana, which is equal to) innumerable part of Sucbi �Angula. Its innumerable fold is Udvelana (division in Udvelana Sankramana). Its infinite fold is Nana Guna Hani Shalaka. in fruition (of Karmas). Its infinite fold (is) one Guua Dani Ayama (in that duration). One and a half of such Guna Hani Ayl1ma is the above) increased (by half of itself). (Number of) Nishekahara or two Guna Han Ayama (is the above increased by half of that Guna Hani Ayama). Infinite fold of that is Annyonya bhyasta Rashi (of that dura�tion.) (Such is) the order. 

Commentary.

Here is set forth the quantity in the five kinds oftransferrence, which takes place according to their respective divisions, increas�ing in the order given below :�

1. Sarva division.

2. Guga division.

3. Utkarshaga and Apakarshana divisions. .

4. Adhah Pravritta division.

5. Multiplier in Vibratory divisions i. e., Yoga Gugakara.

6. Nana Guga Hani Shalaka in duration of Karmas.

7. Number of Ardha-Chhedas in a Palya.

8. First Square root of Palya.

9. Guna Hani in Duration.

10. Annyonya bhyasta Rashi in Duration.

11. Palya.

12. Maximum duration of Karmas.

13. Vidhyata division (in Vidhyata Sankramana).

14. Udvelana division (in Udvelana Sankramana).

15. Nana Guna Hani Shalaka in Duration.

16. Nane Guna Hani Ayama in duration.

17. One and half of that Guna Hani.

18. Nishekahara.

19. Annyonya bhyasta Rashi of Duration. 

Thus it will be seen that Sarva Bhagahara division is taken as one. It means� that the karmic matter which remains in the last part of the last section of the duration of a Karma, will be divid8d by one and the result, i. e., the same number of !tannic molecules will be transferred to another sub-class. This is called Sarva trans�ferrence. Guna division comes next. Its number is innumerable fold of Sarva. The number of Karmic molecules in any sub-class in Guna Sankramana will be divided by Guna division. The result will be the number of molecules to be transferred to another sub�class in the first instant of the fixed time of this Sankramana. Then at each successive instant, the innumerable fold of its former will continue to be transferred till the last instant of its duration. This is called Guna Sankramana.

The third Adhah Pravritta division comes in the fourth order. Karmic matter of any sub-class in Adhah Pravritta being divided by Adhah Pravritta division. the result will be transferred to an. other sub-class. The fourth Vidhyata division comes in the 13th order. Karmic matter of any sub-class of Vidhyata being divided by Vidhyata division, the result will be transferred to .another sub�class. The fifth Udvelana division is fourteenth in order. Karmic matter of any Udvelana sub-class being divided by Udvelana divi�sion, the result will be transferred to another sub-class. 

Utkarshana means an increase in number or quantity. 

Apakarshana means decrease in number or quantity.

Commentary.

Difference between Upashama, Nidhatti; and Nihkachita is this. In Upashama, Karmic molecules are prevented from Opera�tion. for a limited time although the time for their operation has arrived; they are made to subside for that period. During this time of subsidence they may have transferrence, increase or decrease of duration and fruition. In Nidhatti, they are neither brought in�to operation prematurely, nor transferred into that of another sub. class, but they may have increase or decrease of duration and frui�tion. In Nihkachita, they do not operate prematurely nor are trans�ferred, nor can they increase or decrease their duration and fruition.

Commentary.

It has been said before that matter of any age-Karma can not be transferred into that of another; therefore Age-Karma can have only the other nine Karanas. AU the other 144 sub-classes may have all, the ten modes. Souls in stages. from wrong-belief to that of New-thought-activity may have all the ten Karanas.

Commentary.

A sub-class of a Karma will not be bound beyond the stage of its bondage-cessation (Bandha Vyuchhitti). For example wrong �belief sub-class of deluding Karma is only bound in wrong belief stage, at the end of which it ceases to bind. It will not be bound beyond this first stage; nor will there be increase of duration and fruition in the matter of wrong-belief Karma beyond the first stage.

Knowledge-obscuring Karma is of five kinds. These five Karmas are of the same class. They are bound till the 10th stage. The transferrence of matter from one sub-class to another of the same class will also take place till the 10th stage.

85 sub-classes, out of 148, remain in existence till the last two instants of the 14th stage. Decrease of their duration and fruition till their Place of Destruction which is called Kshaya Desha. It lasts for one Avali and one instant. It is a rule that those sub�classes which are changed into other sub-classes at the time of des�truction, i. e., which are operative in the form of another sub-class at the time of destruction, and are therefore called Paramukhodaya, have their Kshaya Desha in the last part or Phali of the last section or Kanda of their destructive stage. While those sub-classes which are destroyed when operative in their own form, and are therefore called Svamukhodaya, have Kshaya Desha for one Avali and one instant. This applies to the 17 sub-classes mentioned above.

Commentary.

The word Sthana, translated as place, denotes the aggregate number of classes or sub-classes, in bondage, operation, or existence, at a time, in a soul.

The question whether the classes or sub-classes are bound, operative, or existing, in ordered succession or otherwise will also be discussed in this chapter.

2. In the 3rd, 8th and 9th stages it binds only seven, excluding age Karma, which can not bound in these stages.

3. In the 10th it binds 6 classes, excluding Age and Deluding Karma.
