Similarly, samayaikavrata, proshadhopavasavrata, upbhogparibhogparimanavrata, atithisambhagavrata, these four are shikshavrata. One who is endowed with these vrata is called a grihi virata-avirata. For example, the directions east etc., by setting a limit with the help of well-known signs, is digvirativrata. Beyond that, the abandonment of violence towards the trembling and stationary beings, is mahavrat in that extent. Even if there is gain beyond that limit, the abandonment of the result, leads to the abandonment of greed. The area with a definite limit of villages etc., is called desh. The abandonment of going beyond that is deshvirativrata. Here also, as before, mahavrat is attained beyond the limit. The action which is not beneficial and is only the cause of sin, is anarthadand. To be free from it is anarthadandavirativrata. Anarthadand is of five types - apadhyan, papopadehs, pramadacharit, hinsapradan, and ashubhashruti. To think in the mind, how can there be victory, defeat, killing, binding, cutting of limbs, and taking away of others' wealth etc., is apadhyan. To speak words full of sin, in matters like causing suffering to the animals, promoting trade, and the beginning of violence towards living beings etc., is papopadehs. To do sinful actions like cutting trees, digging the earth, watering etc., without any purpose, is pramadacharit. To give poison, thorns, weapons, fire, rope, whip, and wood etc., the instruments of violence, is hinsapradan. To listen to and teach evil stories which increase violence and anger etc., is ashubhashruti. 'Sam' prefix is 1. Vratam. These are M. 2. Abandonment of the five sins in the place other than the boundary. Mahavrata is attained by the space of the country. Ratna. 3,5. 3. Manapradesho Mu. 4. 'Papopadehshimadadanapadhyanaduhthati: panch.
