षष्ठः सर्गः

धर्मध्यानं धवलमुदितं मोक्षहेतुर्जिनेन्द्र

ज्योतिर्लोक और अनेक पटलोंसे युक्त स्वर्ग एवं मोक्षसे सहित ऊवं लोकका कथन करनेवाले इस क्षेत्रका संक्षेपसे कर्णप्रिय वर्णन किया है । अब हे आयुष्मन् ! हम कालद्रव्यका कथन करते हैं सो एकाग्रचित्तसे श्रवण कर ॥१३९|| श्रीजिनेन्द्र भगवान्ने आज्ञाविचय, अपायविचय, विपाकविचय और संस्थानविचयके द्वारा चित्तवृत्तिके निरोध करनेको उज्ज्वल धर्मध्यान कहा है और चूँकि धर्मध्यान मोक्षका कारण है इसलिए इन्द्रियोंको वश करनेवाले पुरुषोंको लोकके संस्थान-आकारका चिन्तन करना चाहिए । आचार्योंने ठीक ही कहा है कि इन्द्रियरूपी मदोन्मत्त हाथी और इन्द्रियरूपी घोड़े मन्द आक्रमण होनेपर वशमें नहीं रहते। भावार्थ-मोक्षाभिलाषी पुरुषोंको मन और इन्द्रियोंको स्वतन्त्र नहीं छोड़ना चाहिए ।।१४०।।
इस प्रकार जिसमें श्रीअरिष्टनेमि जिनेन्द्र के पुराणका संग्रह किया गया है ऐसे जिनसेनाचार्यरचित हरिवंश पुराणमें ज्योतिर्लोक तथा ऊर्ध्वलोकका
वर्णन करनेवाला छठा सर्ग समाप्त हुआ ॥६॥

## Sixth Canto

### 131

**Dharma-dhyana**, bright and radiant, is the cause of liberation, as declared by the Jinas. It is the restraint of mental activities through the understanding of the **Ajnana-vichya**, **Apaya-vichya**, **Vipaka-vichya**, and **Sansthana-vichya**. Those who are engrossed in the contemplation of the structure of the world, the performance of actions, and the gathering of wealth, are not easily controlled by their senses, which are like intoxicated elephants and horses.

**Thus ends the sixth canto of the Harivamsa Purana, composed by Jinasena Acharya, which describes the Jyotirloka and the higher realms, and contains a collection of the Puranas of the Ariṣṭanemi Jina.**

**1. ** *Bhedendriyasvavidheyah* **(K, Kh, G, Gh)**

**Explanation:** The text emphasizes the importance of **Dharma-dhyana** for liberation. It highlights the need to control the senses, which are often likened to wild animals, to achieve spiritual progress. The text also emphasizes the importance of understanding the nature of the world, actions, and their consequences.

**139:** This section provides a concise summary of the previous chapters, highlighting the description of the Jyotirloka, the celestial realms, and the path to liberation. It then transitions to the discussion of time and matter.

**140:** This verse emphasizes the need for self-control and the dangers of allowing the senses to dominate one's actions. It warns that those who are consumed by worldly desires and pursuits will find it difficult to control their senses and achieve liberation.

**Note:** The text uses several Jain terms, including **Dharma-dhyana**, **Ajnana-vichya**, **Apaya-vichya**, **Vipaka-vichya**, and **Sansthana-vichya**. These terms are central to Jain philosophy and refer to the practice of meditation, the understanding of ignorance, the nature of hellish realms, the consequences of actions, and the structure of the universe, respectively.
