SAMAYSARA
CHAPTER VI
SAMVARA-BLOCKING THE INFLOW Now Samvara enters the stage
While describing the nature of samvara padarth, the author first praises its ultimate condition, discriminative knowledge
उवओगे उवओगो कोहादिसु णत्थि कोवि उवओगो । कोहो कोहे चैव हि उवओगे णत्थि खलु कोहो । १८१ ।। Uvavoge uvavogo kohadisu natthi kovi uvayōgō Kohe kohochevahi uvavoge natthi kalu koho ( 181 ) उपयोगे उपयोग क्रोधादिषु नास्ति कोऽप्युपयोग ।
क्रोध क्रोधे चैव हि उपयोगे नास्ति खलु क्रोध ॥ १८१ ॥
181 The pure cognitive attributes of perception and knowledge rest upon upayoga or the intrinsic nature of the pure Self The impure emotions such as anger have no relation whatsoever with upayoga Anger subsists on anger itself Certainly there is no anger in the pure cognitive attributes of perception and knowledge
COMMENTARY
What is predicated of anger must be taken to be equally true in the case of other emotions such as pride, etc
Next the author deals with other facts which are also distinct from upayoga or the nature of the pure Self
अट्ठवियप्पे कम्मे णोकम्मे चावि णत्थि उवओगो ।
उवओगह य कम्म णोकम्म चावि णो अत्थि ।। १८२ ॥ Attaviyappe kammē nokamme chavi natthi uvavogo Uvavogahamıya kammam nokammam chāvi no atthi अष्टविकल्पे कर्मणि नोकर्मणि चापि नास्त्युपयोग । उपयोगे च कर्म नोकर्म चापि नो अस्ति ।। १८२ ॥
(182)
182
There is no upayoga either in the eight types of karmas or in the nokarma material particles (which go to build up the various kinds of bodies) Conversely there are neither karmas nor nokarmas in upayoga
