    please explain anays ekarma and anayase karma

    55 minutes ago 3

    Answer

    In Jain Dharma, the terms you wrote seem to refer to:

    • Anāśrava Karma / Anāśrava — stopping the inflow of karma
    • Anāyāsa Karma — actions done effortlessly or casually, depending on context

    However, “anays ekarma” and “anayase karma” are not standard spellings in commonly used Jain terminology. If you mean a specific Gujarati/Hindi term or a phrase from a pravachan, please share the exact spelling or context.

    Explanation

    1. Anāśrava

    In Jain philosophy, āsrava means the inflow of karmic particles into the soul due to activities of body, speech, and mind, especially when accompanied by passions like anger, pride, deceit, and greed.

    Anāśrava means preventing or stopping this inflow.

    This is done through:

    • Right faith
    • Right knowledge
    • Right conduct
    • Control of mind, speech, and body
    • Carefulness in daily living
    • Reduction of passions
    • Practice of vows, samiti, gupti, and self-discipline

    So, Anāśrava is not a type of karma. It is the spiritual condition or practice by which new karma is prevented from binding to the soul.

    2. Anāyāsa Karma

    The word anāyāsa generally means “without effort,” “easily,” or “casually.”

    If someone says anāyāse karma, it may mean karma or action that happens casually, unintentionally, or without deliberate effort. But in Jain Dharma, even unintended activity may still have karmic effect depending on:

    • Intention
    • Awareness
    • Carelessness or carefulness
    • Presence or absence of passions
    • Harm caused to living beings

    For example, accidentally harming tiny living beings while walking is different from intentionally harming them. The karmic bondage is much stronger when there is intention, passion, cruelty, or negligence.

    Spiritual Understanding

    Jain Dharma teaches that karma is not only about outward action. The inner state is very important.

    • An action done with anger, ego, deceit, or greed binds stronger karma.
    • An action done with awareness, compassion, and restraint reduces karmic bondage.
    • Spiritual practice aims to stop new karma through saṃvara and shed old karma through nirjarā.

    Takeaway

    If you meant Anāśrava, it means stopping the inflow of karma. If you meant Anāyāse karma, it generally means action done casually or without deliberate effort, but its karmic result depends on intention, awareness, and passions.

    Please share the exact word in Gujarati, Hindi, or Sanskrit if you want a more precise Jain explanation.
