cetanālakṣaṇo jīvaḥ syād ajīvas tadanyakaḥ/

"The hindrances belonging to vigour, enjoyment, sensual pleasure, giving and receiving,—sleep, fear, ignorance, aversion, laughter, liking, disliking, love, hatred, want of indifference, desire, sorrow, deceit, these are the eighteen 'faults' (doṣa) according to our system.[61] The divine Jina is our Guru, who declares the true knowledge of the tattvas. The path[62] of emancipation consists of knowledge, intuition, and conduct. There are two means of proof (pramāṇa) in the Syād-vāda doctrine,—sense-perception and inference. All consists of the eternal and the non-eternal; there are nine or seven tattvas. The jīva, the ajīva, merit and demerit, āsrava, saṃvara, bandha, nirjarā, mukti,—we will now explain each. Jīva is defined as intelligence; ajīva is all other than it; merit means bodies which arise from good actions, demerit the opposite; āsrava is the bondage of actions,[63] nirjarā is the unloosing thereof; mokṣa arises from the destruction of the eight forms of karman or "action". But by some teachers "merit" is included in saṃvara,[64] and "demerit" in āsrava.
