Notes for Nov 12th, Page 39-40

Date: November 12th

Chapter 2.

Page: 39-40

On Nov 12, initially we did revision of 4 कषाय and talked about its 4 प्रकार.
4.कषाय are - Krodh, Man, Maya, Lobh.
4. प्रकार are Anantanubandhi, Apratakhanavarni, Pratakhanavarni and Sanjulan.
Because of Anantanubandhi कषाय, Jive cannot be Samayak. Because of Sanjulan. कषाय Jive cannot express his YathaKhyatCharita, but it does allow expressing SakalCharita.

There is not time till now that any Sansari jive did not do मिथ्यात्व and because of that कषाय. Hence Jive does not believe that कषाय is bad and never tried to give up कषाय. We tried to reduce कषाय, but never tried to remove मिथ्यात्व from root, which is right thing to do. मिथ्यात्व is root for कषाय. We also talked that because of our previous Punya, we are able to get this Vitrag Wani.

We also discussed how these कषाय cause pain and people’s behavior under influence of these कषाय. We also talked about 6 Lesya. From Krishna Lesya which is too strong and Sukla which is too mild. We also talked all Sansari binds all 4 कषाय all the time.

There are 4 types of stage when Jive is मिथ्यात्व from strong to mild are base on Anubhag

· Sella,

· Asthi,

· Daru,

· Latha.

So order mentioned like To break Sella, it takes so much efforts, similarly Sella type of Mithyatva, takes so much efforts to break. But for Lakdi takes so less efforts to break it. So understand that within Mithyatva, some Mithyatva takes long time to remove, and other type’s takes less time.

Then we discussed, there are 4 types of Anger –

· Shilla(Big Stone),

· Pathavi ki Rehka,

· Dhuli ki Rehkha,

· Jal ki Rehkha.

One कषाय can be in Uday for minimum 1 Samay and maximum 1 Antarmurt.
Anantanubandhi is worst कषाय because that one Samayak ka Ghat karti hai. The second worst is Sanjulan कषाय because that one YathaKhyatCharita ka Ghat karti and then comes pratyakhyan, apratyakhyan.

Then we discussed about which order for 4 कषाय in terms of Anubhag - Lobh, Maya, Krodh, Man. Here order for worseness of कषाय is in decreasing order. For example anantanubandhi Lobh is worse than anantanubandhi Maya, in that order. The same rules apply in similar order for pratyakhyan, apratyakhyan and Sanjulan.

In Human – Lobh, Maya, Krodh and Man is for more duration.
Intensity wise – Human has highest Man, Animal has highest Maya, Dev has highest Lodh and Naraki has highest Krodh.
When Jiv enters in to Moksh Marg, either 3, 2 or 1 प्रकारकि कषाय Uday hota hai. But definitely Anantanubandhi कषाय Chali jati hai.
At any time only 1 कषाय ka Uday Hota hotai. Besides one कषाय convert into another कषाय.

नित्य निगोद और इत्तर निगोद June 30 Class Notes

नित्य निगोद और इतर निगोद ( मोक्ष मार्ग प्रकाशक ) प्रष्ट ३१
जीव जहाँ हमेशा से रह रहा है और पहली बार जीव नित्य निगोद से निकल कर आता है इत्तर निगोद जब जीव नित्य से निकल कर दूसरी पर्याय से वापस निगोद में जाता है तो वह इत्तर निगोद कहलाता है
हर जीव नित्य निगोद से ही निकल कर आता है चार गति मैं से तिर्यंच मैं निगोद आता है इस मैं से भी एक इंद्रिय का धारक निगोदिया जीव है उस मैं भी वनस्पति कायक होता है वनस्पति मैं भी दो प्रकार है - साधारण और प्रत्येक साधारण वनस्पति मैं एक शरीर और अनेक स्वामी वह नित्य निगोद कहलाता है प्रत्येक वनस्पति दो प्रकार के है - प्रतिष्टित और अप्रतिष्टित एक इन्द्रिय जीव है जो नित्य निगोद मैं ही भ्रमण करते हैं , वे नित्य निगोद जीव सदकाल वहीं रहते है ६०८ जीव ६ महीने ८ समय मैं वहां से निकलते हैं इतने ही जीव वहाँ जाते भी हैं जो एक इन्द्रिय जीव नित्य निगोद से निकलते हैं वे एक इन्द्रिय , विकलत्र्य मैं जाते हैं ये सीधे नरक और देव मैं नहीं जाते हैं वह मनुष्य और तिर्यंच मैं जाता है इत्तर निगोद को चतुर्गति निगोद भी कहते हैं
जीव इत्तर निगोद से निकल कर फ़िर अन्य पर्याय मैं भ्रमण करते हैं असंख्यात कल्प काल तक भ्रमण कर सकता है एक कल्प २० कोडा कोडी सागर का होता है एक इन्द्रिय से त्रस पर्याय का काल करीब दो हज़ार सागर है इत्तर निगोद मैं ढाई पुदगल परावर्तन तक रहता है - जो की अनंत काल है स्थावर मैं फ़िर कल्प काल तक
ऐसा परिवर्तन चलता रहता है कभी दो इन्द्रिय मैं चला जावे तो असंख्यात पुदगल परावर्तन है निगोद से त्रस पर्याय मैं जाना काक तालिक नयाय वर्त जैसा है - दुर्लभ है एक कव्वा भूखा हो और कोई ताली बजाए, फिर कोई वृक्ष से फल उसके मुंह मैं आ जावे वो काक तालिक न्याय वर्त है अधिकाँश समय एक इन्द्रिय जीव मैं जाता है इस प्रकार कर्म बंधन का रोग जीव को अनादी काल से चल रहा है

Class Notes 6/23

Review:Yoga is always going on thus karmic bondage is always going on.3 Types of Yoga: 1) Shub, 2) Ushub, and 3) Mishra (mixed)Yoga is the cause of Type and PradeshasKashayas is the cause of Intensity and Duration

New:Type and Pradeshas do not hold as much strength as intensity and duration
Yoga is one way for ashrov to occur, bondage only occurs when there is duration of the particles - Arhants can have ashrov, but with zero duration so there is not bondage.

Dukh - unhappiness is due to our worldly attachments so we should want to move away from this and this is due to Mithatva and Kashayas which are the causes of bondage which only occur through Mohanaya karma and not part of the other 7 karmas.
Raag and Dwesh are states of charitra.
Mithatva must be eliminate prior to elimination of kashayas.

Pudgal parmanu are just non-living objects so how do they know what type of fruitation (type, intensity, duration, pradeshas) to give? Ex. The food that we consume is also non-living object, but it also knows they type of nutrients, the intesity of nutrition, how long it will last in the body, and how many calories it provides the body.

The purpose of learning this is not just to know and understand it, but to apply it in our lives so that we make efforts towards reducing our karmic influx and bondage.
