    Aashrav samvar nirjara,... Bandh moksha vikhyat

    one year ago 287

    You are referring to the core concepts in Jain philosophy related to the soul’s journey towards liberation (moksha). The phrase "Aashrav, Samvar, Nirjara, Bandh, Moksha" (often mentioned together as "Aashrav, Bandh, Samvar, Nirjara, Moksha") represents the five fundamental aspects of the karmic process in Jainism:

    1. Aashrav (Āsrava) – Influx of karmic particles into the soul due to activities (yoga) caused by passions (kashayas) and vibrations.
    2. Bandh (Bandha) – Bondage of karmic particles with the soul.
    3. Samvar (Samvara) – The stoppage or blockage of the further influx of karmas.
    4. Nirjara (Nirjarā) – Shedding or eradication of accumulated karmas.
    5. Moksha (Mokṣa) – Liberation of the soul from all karmic bondage, resulting in infinite bliss, knowledge, and perception.

    This sequence explains the path of spiritual purification in Jainism:

    • First, due to ignorance and passions, karmas flow into the soul (Aashrav) and bind to it (Bandh).
    • Through right conduct, right knowledge, and right faith, one can stop further influx (Samvar) and eliminate existing karmas (Nirjara).
    • Ultimately, the soul attains liberation or Moksha, free from all karmas.

    This teaching is central to Jain philosophy and is described in detail in texts such as Tattvartha Sutra and other Jain scriptures.
