Unprecedented Karana (3) (operation of spiritual energy)-
- The second step of the threefold Karaṇa for the attainment of Samyaktva (right faith)-That unprecedented Adhyavasāya (subtle level of consciousness, which interacts with karmic body), which is experienced before the attainment of Samyaktva (right faith); or the spiritual transformation which brings about unprecedented reduction (ghāta) in the duration and intensity of Karma.
(ViBhā 1202 Vr p.458)
- The eighth Guṇasthāna (stage of spiritual development);
it is that unprecedented Adhyavasāya (subtle level of consciousness, which interacts with karmic body) which occurs at the very inception of the climbing up of the spiritual ladder (śreṇī-ārohaṇa).

- That state of unprecedented Adhyavasāya (subtle level of consciousness, which interacts with karmic body), on entering which one attains omniscience (Kevalajñāna).
