8728. प्रतिग्रहादिक्रमो विधिः । विशेषो गुणकृतः । तस्य प्रत्येकमभिसम्बन्धः क्रियते-विधिविशेषो द्रव्यविशेषो दातृ विशेषः पात्रविशेष इति । तत्र विधिविशेषः प्रतिग्रहादिष्वादरानादरकृतो भेदः । तपःस्वाध्यायपरिवृद्धि हेतुत्वादिद्रव्यविशेषः । अनसूयाविषादादिर्दातृ विशेषः ।
स्मरण करना सुखानुबन्ध है । भोगाकांक्षासे जिसमें या जिसके कारण चित्त नियमसे दिया जाता है वह निदान है । ये सब सल्लेखना के पाँच अतिचार हैं ।
8725. तीर्थंकर पदके कारणभूत कर्मके आस्रवका कथन करते समय शक्तिपूर्वक त्याग और तप कहा; पुनः शीलोंका कथन करते समय अतिथिसंविभागव्रत कहा परन्तु दानका लक्षण अभीतक ज्ञात नहीं हुआ, इसलिए दानका स्वरूप बतलाने के लिए आगेका सूत्र कहते हैं
अनुग्रहके लिए अपनी वस्तुका त्याग करना दान है ॥38॥
$ 726. स्वयं अपना और दूसरेका उपकार करना अनुग्रह है। दान देने से पुण्यका संचय होता है यह अपना उपकार है तथा जिन्हें दान दिया जाता है उनके सम्यग्ज्ञान आदिकी वृद्धि होती है यह परका उपकार है । सूत्रमें आये हुए स्वशब्दका अर्थ धन है। तात्पर्य यह है कि अतुग्रहके लिए जो धनका अतिसर्ग अर्थात् त्याग किया जाता है वह दान है ऐसा जानना चाहिए । 8727. दानका स्वरूप कहा तब भी उसका फल एक-सा होता है या उसमें कुछ विशेषता है, यह बतलाने के लिए अब आगेका सूत्र कहते हैं
विधि, देय वस्तु, दाता और पात्रकी विशेषतासे उसकी विशेषता है ॥39॥
8728. प्रतिग्रह आदि करनेका जो क्रम वह विधि है । विशेषता गुणसे आती है । इस विशेष शब्दको विधि आदि प्रत्येक शब्दके साथ जोड़ लेना चाहिए। यथा - विधिविशेष, द्रव्यविशेष, दाताविशेष और पात्रविशेष । प्रतिग्रह आदिकमें आदर और अनादर होनेसे जो भेद होता है वह विधिविशेष है। जिससे तप और स्वाध्याय आदिकी वृद्धि होती है वह द्रव्यविशेष है । अनसूया और विषाद आदिका न होना दाताकी विशेषता है। तथा मोक्षके कारणभूत गुणोंसे युक्त रहना पात्रकी विशेषता है । जैसे पृथिवी आदिमें विशेषता होनेसे उससे उत्पन्न हुए 1. भगवता मु., ता. ।

## Chapter Seven
[289

**A special kind of attachment to memory is the cause of happiness.** The mind is constantly given to that which is desired for enjoyment, and this is the cause. These are the five transgressions of Sallekhana.

8725. Here, in the description of the karma-asrava that is the cause of becoming a Tirthankara, it was said, "by strength, by renunciation, by austerity." Again, in the description of the vows, it was said, "the vow of sharing with guests." The nature of this giving has not been known yet, so it is explained here:

**Giving is the renunciation of one's own possessions for the sake of benefit.** ||38||

8726. Benefit is the welfare of oneself and others. The welfare of oneself is the accumulation of punya; the welfare of others is the increase of right knowledge, etc. The word "own" refers to wealth. It should be understood that giving is the renunciation of one's own possessions for the sake of benefit.

8727. Here, it is said, "Giving has been described, but is its fruit the same for all, or is there some difference?" To this, it is said:

**There is a difference in giving due to the difference in the method, the object given, the giver, and the recipient.** ||39||

8728. The order of accepting, etc., is the method. The difference arises from the qualities. This word "difference" should be connected with each of the words "method," etc. Thus, there is a difference in the method, a difference in the object given, a difference in the giver, and a difference in the recipient. The difference in the method is the difference in respect and disrespect in accepting, etc. The difference in the object given is that which causes the increase of austerity, study, etc. The difference in the giver is the absence of envy, sorrow, etc. The difference in the recipient is being endowed with the qualities that are the cause of liberation. Just as there is a difference in the earth, etc., and therefore a difference in what is born from it...
