Mitigation of Bondage
When the intensity of a bondage is extremely strong, it
has to be suffered as it cannot be mitigated. Such karmas are called ‘Nikacit'.
However, other karmas and their effect can be mitigated by countering them
by penances, equanimity and good conduct. This aspect will be discussed in
further details when we consider the ‘Tattva' called ‘Nirjara' (shedding)
process of being free from karmic bondage.
