Note-2 ARHAT VACANA Kundakunda Jnanapitha, Indore OMNISCIENCE & JAINISM I A. P. Jain Every thought is preceeded by material vibrations in brain. These brain waves are not a myth now, but hard facts of experiment. It has been possible to record them on paper and the records are known as incephelograms. They have been transmitted across the Atlantic and received at the other end (a sort of telepathic transmission with the help of machines). In fact they are electromagnetic waves of ultra - ultra short wave lengths. When the brain acting like a miniature radio receiver is properly tuned, the waves from outside are received in. In fact a thought can be looked upon as influx of foreign energy into the soul. Prof. Albert Einsteen astounded the world by his great discovery that energy is matter and matter is energy. Every thought, therefore, which precedes our action, involves comming in of some foreign matter into the soul. The Jain theory of karma which postulates the association of subtle matter with the soul at every moment of our life and which has been given the name karma vargana and is included amongst the six divisions into which matter has been divided under name Sutdravya. Souls are divided into two catagories - mundane and pure. A mundane soul is closely associated with matter which flows in as a result of our thought and consequent actions. As every kind of matter is subject in Newtonian forces of gravitation, the poor mundane soul stands no chances of flying away from the grip of the universe which is filled with matter on its concerns, but when this association with karmic matter is annihilated, the soul begins its upward journey like a hydrogen balloon. Hydrogen atom is the lightest among matters and therefore a hydrogen balloon would go up as far as meets the hydrogen layer of the upper atmosphere provided it is prevented from bursting by the rays of Sun. Soul is lightest still, in fact, because it is non- material and rises to the top of universe beyond which there is no medium of motion. Pure soul is effulgence divine in which the consciousness inheres although the science of today is trying to search conciousness in the protein molecule. 'There will be a question - Were the Tirthankaras omniscient? We can only imagine what a divine foresight they must have possesed who laid knowledge before us the mysteries of biggest & smallest measurement of the universe and atom. Electron, Proton, Newtron etc. and astronomical facts like black holes and other things. Received - 28.3.97 * N-14, Chetakpuri, Gwalior -474009 64 Arhat Vacana, April 99

Note-3 ARHAT VACANA Kundakunda Jnanapitha, Indore ARE ALL TRIBALS HINDU JAIN A. P. Jain Are all the tribals of India Hindu by birth? It is a presumption to this effect that underlies all that is being said and done in a organised manner. If one has to rely on the constitutional laws and modern Hindu Code. The Jains are the pre-Aryan setters in India, they have a large tribal heritage in the different parts of India. No attempt had ever been made by the Jain Society and anthropological survey of India and govt. machinery. It is unfortunate that true census had not been done pre and after independence. Munda, Ho, Angaria, Sarak, Muria, Mariya, Bhumihar, Bhumij etc. are the Pre Aryan Premitive Jain settlers residing in Jharkhand and Chhota Nagpur. They have faith in Ahimsa (Non-violence) (Mr. I.T. Dalton & H.H. Risley - Bengal and Puri Gazetteer 1908-1910 A.D.). Jain influence on the tribals existed deeply in almost all parts of ancient India. Most of the Jain Tirthankaras were born and travelled in Northern India. As a result the Jain religion was largely prevalent and mainly propogated throughout the eastern & northern India. Consequently, the three provinces, Bihar, Bengal & Orrisa were in the way fully drenched in the religious waves of Jainism. The constitution (1950) includes that non Hindus could never be a scheduled caste, in 1956 Sikhs word has also been included. On the contrary, law on the scheduled tribes, wholly free from religious shackles. Nor is there any judicial decision saying that all scheduled tribes are born Hindu. Any change of religion on the part of a number of a scheduled tribe does not legally alter his or her scheduled tribe status. The modern Hindu code of 1955-56 does not apply to the scheduled tribes. Had the scheduled tribes been born Hindu, framers of Hindu Code, who extended it also to Buddhists, Jains and Sikhs, could never have agreed to their exclusion from its purview. The Hindu Marriage Act 1955, the Hindu Succession Act 1956, the Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act 1956 and the Hindu Adoption and Maintanance Act 1956, all have an identical declaration to make 'Nothing contained in this act shall apply to the scheduled tribes'. The rider in this declaration Arhat Vacana, April 99 65

Page #68
enabling the central government to extend the code to any of the scheduled tribes is merely cosmatic. In respect to several tribal communities there have been judicial decisions specifically affirming that the four Hindu Laws enactments of 1955-56 do not extend to the scheduled tribes. The census reports of India do not treat the tribal communities as born Hindu. Appendix 'C' to the census report of 1991 gives details of 'Sects/Beliefs / Religions clubbed with another religion'. According to this annexure, no tribal community has been clubbed with the followers of Hindu religion with report. The main part of the report shows the population, in various states and union territories, under eight different heads - (1) Hindu, (2) Muslim, (3) Christian, (4) Sikhs, (5) Buddhists, (6) Jains, (7) Other religion and persuations and (8) Religion not stated. The head of other religion and persuations is detailed in Appendix 'A' to the report. In this Appendix about 60 tribal religion are seperately specified. The Sarak religion is one out of them. In addition of these specified religions and persuations' of the various tribal communities this appendix also includes a residuary head of 'Tribal Religion and then an additional head of 'un - classified' religions which also must be inclusive of many smaller tribes. Indian law thus does not recognise the claim that all tribals are born Hindus. Sarak are born into their own peculiar religious faiths which is Jain. Article 25 of constitution guaranteeing freedom of conscience does not exclude the tribals from its purview, and like all other Indian they have a right to embrace any other religion of their choice. Jain religious preachers can thus lawfully offer their religion to the tribals. This can be done peacefully to rejoin the tribals in the main stream of Jaina faith. All religions claims to be a way of life but there is nothing unique like Jainism, this allow a wide spectrum of religious practices of non violence. Non violence is an original way of life, so it is proved that most of tribals were Jains in pree beginning of social structure.

It was presided over by Prof. Vachaspati Upadhyay, Vice Chancellor, Lal Bahadur Shastri Rashtriya Sanskrit Vidyapeeth. The chief guest was Shri K.P.A. Menon the audience that only a culture, religion and ethicsm that have an attitude of synthesis and respect for traditions and faiths other than its own, can be acceptable.
