The eight kinds of Karman are briefly the following:
Gñânâvaranîya (which acts as an obstruction to right knowledge);
Darsanâvaranîya (which acts as an obstruction to right faith);
Vêdanîya (which leads to experiencing pain or pleasure);
Môhanîya (which leads to delusion);
Âyuhkarman (which determines the length of life);
Nâman (which determines the name or individuality of the embodied soul);
Gôtra (which determines his Gôtra);
Antarâya (which prevents one's entrance on the path that leads to eternal bliss).
