The Jaina Doctrine of Karma And The Science Of Genetics: Physics and Karma

When the living organism performs the various activities, it having attracted the karmic particles enwraks them all around it. According to one theory of physics, all inert matters, due to their present heat, radiate the electromagnetic rays. When any creature (jīva) is attracted towards anything living (animate) or inert (inanimate) then living being (jīva) according to intensity of his/her passions and yoga he/she adjusts clock frequency equal to frequency of that thing, such condition is called the stage of attraction. In this state of intense attraction, the creature (jīva) and the matter (pudgala) exchange the highest form of power. When the waves having two different frequencies pass through any matter, its effect is marked in holograph form in that matter. Similarly, due to its attachment and aversion the holograph is imprinted on the soul of creature (jīva) in positive or negative charge.^[23]

Even the modern scientists have begun to believe the presence of unvisible fine matter particles around human body. Those particles are karmic particles i.e. karma vargaṇā which ultimately become karma when attracted by jīva due to its activities.^[24] The way in which radio active elements keep on radiating the rays for millions or billions of years very slowly. Similarly the karma particles radiate special types of rays. It should be understood here that the changes in living being (jīva) occur due to these radiating rays mainly.
