Precepts On The Path Of Liberation хЕ│ф║ОшзгшД▒ф╣Лш╖п

Maggo maggaphalam ti ya, duviham jinasasane samakkhadam.

Maggo khalu sammattam maggaphalam hoi nivvanam. (192)

“The path” and the “result of (follwing) the path” these two things have been proclaimed in the discipline preached by the Jinas. Really `right faith’ is the path and liberation is the result. (192)

Damsanananacarittani, mokkhamaggo tti sevidavvani.

Sadhuhi idam bhanidam, tehim du bandho va mokkho va. (193)

The faith, the knowledge and the conduct together constitute the path of liberation; this is the pathe to be followed. The saints have said that if it is followed in the right way it will lead to liberation and otherwise it will lead to bondage. (193)

Aavadi tti dukkhamokkham, parasamayarado havadi jivo. (194)

If a wise person ignorantly considers that by doing pure (i.e., religious) performance he will be free from sorrow then he is the follower of an alien view, i.e., wrong faith. (194)

Avdasamidiguttio, silatavam jinavarehi pannattam.

Kuvvanto vi abhavvo, annani micchaditthi du. 195)

An abhavya Jiva (a soul inherently incapable of attaining liberation), even if he observes the five vows, the five types of vigilence, the three fold self-control, the code of morality and the various modes of austerities as laid down by the Jina, lacks right understanding and possesses wrong faith.

An abhavya Jiva, even if he develops faith in the religion, has confidence in it has a liking for it and performs it, does all this for the sake of attaining some worldly enjoyment and not for the sake of annihilating his karmas. (197)

An auspicious disposition towards worldly gain secures merit (punya) while an inauspicious disposition towards worldly gain acquires sin (papa) but one, who remains undisturbed by alien things and enjoys one’s own pure nature, can put an end to one’s misery. (198)

Punnam sugaihedum, punnakhaeneva nivvanam. (199)

He who aspires for merit, i.e. worldly well being, aspires for life in this mundane world; merit (punya) is capable of securing a pleasant state of existence; but it is cessation of merits (punya Karma) only that leads to liberation. (199)

Through merit (punya karma) one may attain cakravarti-hood (i.e. supreme kingship) where great honour is bestowed on one by the Vidyadharas (demigods), gods and men through praising with folded hands and offering of garlands, but certainly he will not attain the right understanding braised by a bhavya (i.e., soul fit for salvation) (204)

Puvvam visuddhasaddhamme, kevalam bohi bujjhiya.

Caurangam dullajham matta, samjamam padivajjiya.

Tavasa dhuyakammamse, siddhe havai sasae. (206 & 207)

After having experienced for the entire life incomparable enjoyments appropriate to human beings one attains the ritght-understanding that leads to emancipation on account of the religious performances undertaken by one in one’s earlier births. Having realized that four things (viz.human birth, listening to scriptures, having faith in scriptures, approprate practical endeavour) are difficult to attain, one observes self-restraint and having annihilated one’s past karmans through penance, one becomes for ever a soul emancipated. (206 & 207)
