    In Bhagvati Sutra chapter 5, lesson 7 what does the following mean, " subhita ane uditita, aa bane kriyamanthi subhita ma potana swaroopathi anshatah subhit thai che"

    Answer

    The line means:

    “Among the two types of kriyamāṇ karma — subhita and uditita — in subhita kriyamāṇ, the karma has partially become ready according to its own nature.”

    In simpler Gujarati-English:

    Subhita karma means a karma that has become somewhat prepared or partially matured by its own nature, but it has not yet fully come into actual rise or experience.

    Explanation

    In Jain karma theory, kriyāmāṇ karma refers to karma that is presently active in a certain process.

    Here two states are mentioned:

    • Subhita — karma that has become partially prepared, developed, or capable according to its own nature.
    • Uditita — karma that has actually come into rise, meaning it is now giving its result.

    So when the sentence says:

    “subhita ma potana swaroopathi anshatah subhit thai che”

    it means:

    • The karma has not fully manifested.
    • It has only become partly developed.
    • This partial development happens according to the karma’s own nature, capacity, or form.
    • It is a stage before full rise or complete fruition.

    Spiritual Understanding

    Jain Dharma explains karma very precisely. Karma does not always give fruit immediately. It may pass through stages:

    • bondage,
    • existence,
    • partial readiness,
    • rise,
    • experience of result.

    This teaching helps us understand that karmas are subtle and systematic. Some karmas are only partially ready, while some have fully arisen and are giving pleasure, pain, delusion, obstruction, etc.

    Takeaway

    Subhita means the karma is partially prepared or partially matured according to its own nature, whereas uditita means the karma has actually arisen and started giving its result.
