GOMMATASARA."

Commentary. Out of 148 sub-classes of 8 Karmas only 122 operate. 26 are not taken into consideration, with reference to operation. These 26 are the following sub-classes of the body-making Karma.5 bondage (Bandhana) 5 interfusion (Sanghata), and 6 of the 20 sub-divisions of touch, taste, smell and colour, because only one of each of these 4 operate at a time. The bondage and interfusion subclasses are bound and operate along with the five body sub-classes of the body-making Karma, they therefore are not counted separately.
Out of these 122, nine operate in an exceptional way. They are mentioned in Gathas 261 and the 1st half of 262. The remaining 113 are dealt with in the last part of Gatha 262.

Commentary. In the 12th stage of destroyed delusion, operation-cessation of 2 and 14 sub-classes is mentioned. It means that two sub-classes cease to operate in the last but one, and fourteen in the last instant, as given in Gatha 270. . This discription is in accordance with the view of the saint Vrishabháchárya, the author of Máhá Dhavala which is also called Kashaya Prabhrita.
पण णवइगि सत्तरसं अड पंच च चउर छक्क छच्चेव । इगिदुग सोलस तीसं बारस उदये अजोगंता ॥ २६४ ॥ पञ्च नवैकं सप्तदशाष्ट पञ्च च चतस्रः षट्कं षट् चैव । एकद्विकं षोडश त्रिंशत् द्वादश उदये प्रयोगान्ताः ॥ २६४ ॥
