ṣaDZ貹ś첹 (क्षयोपशमिक) refers to “right-belief which arises from combined suppression and destruction of karma� and represents one of the five classes of Saṃyagdarśana (“right-belief�), as mentioned in chapter 1.3 [īś-ٰ] of Hemacandra’s 11th century Triṣaṣṭiśalākāpuruṣacaritra: an ancient Sanskrit epic poem narrating the history and legends of sixty-three illustrious persons in Jainism.

Accordingly, as mentioned in Ṛṣabha’s sermon:�

“[... ǰṣa is attained by those who practice unceasingly the brilliant triad of knowledge, faith, and conduct. Attachment to the principles told by the scriptures is called ‘right-belief� (ṃyśԲ or ṃy岹śԲ), and is produced by intuition or instruction of a Guru. [...] It is five-fold. Of these, the third, arising from combined destruction and suppression of wrong-belief [i.e., ṣaDZ貹ś첹], belongs to one who has thought-activity from the rising of right-belief-matter. [...]�.

Note: ṣaDZ貹ś첹 exists in Guṇasthānas 4-11, and has a minimum duration of an Գٲܳūٲ, and a maximum of 66 + 岵DZ貹.

ṣҴDZ貹ś첹 (क्षायोपशमि�) or ś refers to “destruction-cum-subsidence of karmas� and represents one of the five dispositions (thought-activities) of the soul, according to the 2nd-century Tattvārthasūtra 2.1. What is meant by mixed-disposition (ś)? The subsidence-cum-destruction disposition is called mixed disposition.

What is meant by destruction-cum-subsidence (ṣҾ첹 / ܱ貹ś첹) disposition? The disposition of the soul arising out of simultaneous subsidence-cum-destruction of karmas is called mixed disposition e.g. in a glass of water in which mud settled at the bottom and then the mud particles continue coming up and mixing with clean water at the top.

What is meant by subsidence-cum-destruction (ܱ貹ś첹 / ṣҾ첹)? Destruction of the activation tendency of karmas in the present time and subsidence of the karmas likely to be active in the future properly, along with activation of the partially-destructive (deśaghāti) karmas, is called subsidence-cum-destruction.

context information

Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, ‘self-reliance�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
