How does CMU Sphinx Java library work in Python

[snippsat]

Hello all,
I am wondering, how does the CMU Sphinx part of the Python Speech Recognition works, since it is originally a Java library?
Can Python interpreter also run an instance of Java Virtual Machine?

Not trough Python interpreter but Jython,but that is not what happens here.

Info is in license,
and is not all Java the recognizer library is written in C.
