Umāsvāti’s Tattvārtha Sūtra sets out seven tattvas, or “realities”, whose right understanding is the basis of the path: jīva, ajīva, āsrava (inflow of karma), bandha (bondage), saṃvara (stopping), nirjarā (shedding) and mokṣa (liberation). Some lists add merit and demerit to make nine. Together they map the soul’s bondage and release.
