एषो मे सासदो आवा णाणसणलपवणो । सेसा मे बाहिरा भावा सम्वे संजोगलक्षणा ॥
-समयप्राभूत एकोऽहं निर्भगः शुद्धो ज्ञानी योगीन्द्रगोचरः । बाह्याः संयोगजाः भावा मत्तः सर्वेऽपि सर्वथा ॥27॥ ---इष्टोपदेश रतो बंधति कम्मं मुंचदि कम्मं विरागसंपत्तो । एसो जिणोवएसो तम्हा कम्मेप्तु मा रज्ज ॥ -समयप्राभूत बध्यते मुच्यते जीवः सममो निर्मप्र: क्रमात् ।
तस्मात सर्वप्रयत्लेन निर्ममत्वं विचिन्तयेत् ॥26॥ -इष्टोपदेश रत्नकरण्डक एक श्लोक आता है जिसमें कहा गया है कि धर्म के प्रभावसे कूकर भी देव हो जाता है और अधर्मके प्रभावसे देवको भी कूकर होते देर नहीं लगती । यथा--
इवापि देवोऽपि वेवः वा जायते घसंकिल्विषात् ।
कापि नाम भवेवग्या संपद् धर्माच्छरीरिणाम् ॥ 1, 29॥ इष्टोपदेश में यही शब्द तो नहीं हैं पर इनका अनुसरण करते हुए आचार्यवर्य कहते हैं.
वरं व्रतः पदं वं वाव्रतवंत नारकम् ।
छायातपस्थयो नः प्रतिपालयतोमहान् ।। 3॥ साधकके लिए आत्मसाधनामें इससे बड़ी सहायता मिलती है।
4. दशभक्ति-भक्तियाँ दशसे अधिक हैं। फिर भी वे भुख्यरूपसे दस मानी जाती हैं। श्रीमान् पं० पन्नालालजी सोनीने सम्पादित कर क्रियाकलाप' नामक ग्रन्थ प्रकाशित किया है। यह संग्रह ग्रन्थ है। इसके प्रथम अध्यायके कुछ प्रकरणोंका संग्रह स्वयं पण्डितजीने किया है। शेप संग्रह मालूम होता है प्राचीन है। सम्भव है इसके संग्रहकार पण्डित प्रभाचन्द्र हों। इन्होंने ही इसके अनेक उपयोगी विषयों पर टीका लिखी है। ये पण्डित थे और इनका नाम प्रभाचन्द्र था-इसकी सूचना नन्दीश्वर-भक्तिके अन्त मे प्रकरण समाप्तिकी पुष्पिका लिखते समय स्वयं इन्होंने दी है !- इसमें सब भक्तियों व दूसरे प्रकरणोंका संग्रह स्वयं इनका किया दुआ है या क्रियाकलापको जो वर्तमान स्वरूप मिला है वह बादका काम है यह हम निश्चयपूर्वक नहीं कह सकते, क्योंकि एक तो न स्वयं सोनीजीने इसकी व्यवस्थित सूचना दी। सोनीजी यदि इसकी प्रस्तावनामें यह बतलानेकी कृपा करते कि उन्होंने जितनी प्रतियोंके आधारसे इसका सम्पादन किया है, वे कहाँकी हैं और उनका लेखन-काल क्या है तो इस बातके निर्णय करने में बड़ी सहायता मिलती कि यह संग्रह कितना पुराना है। दूसरे इस में ऐसे कई उपयोगी विषयोंका संग्रह है किन्तु उन पर पण्डित प्रभाचन्द्रकी टीका न होनेते वे उनके सामने थे इस बातको स्वीकार करने में संकोच होता है। उदाहरणार्थ प्राकृतनिर्वाणभक्ति जो लोकमें निर्वाणकाण्डके नाम से प्रसिद्ध है, इसमें संग्रहीत है पर इस पर उनकी टीका नहीं है। जब कि वह दूसरी भक्तियोंके मध्य में स्थित है। सोनीजीने मुद्रित क्रियाकलापके सम्बन्ध में अपनी भूमिका में स्थिति स्पष्ट तो की है पर उससे पूरा प्रकाश नहीं पड़ता।
इसमें जितनी भक्तियां संग्रहीत हैं उनमेंसे प्रथम परिच्छेदमें सिद्धिभक्ति, श्रुतभक्ति, चारित्रभक्ति, योगिभक्ति, आचार्यभक्ति, निर्वाणभक्ति और नन्दीश्वरभक्ति ये सात भक्तियां संग्रहीत हैं। इनमें से नन्दीश्वर

## Introduction

This is my humble offering, a collection of teachings on the path of liberation. These are my external thoughts, arising from the interaction of the soul with the world.

- I am one, existing in the present moment, free from attachment, pure, knowledgeable, and the object of the yogi's aspiration. All external thoughts, arising from interaction with the world, are completely different from me. (27)

- The soul, bound by karmic actions, is liberated from them through detachment. This is the path of the Jina, therefore, do not be attached to karmic actions. (26)

- The *Iṣṭopadesa* (a collection of teachings) contains a verse that states that even a pot can become a god through the influence of Dharma, and a god can become a pot through the influence of Adharma. As it is said:

> Even a god or a pot can be born from the poison of attachment.
> The wealth of liberation is attained by those who are righteous. (1, 29)

- While these exact words are not found in the *Iṣṭopadesa*, the Acharya (spiritual teacher) says, following the same principle:

> Better to be a vow-taker than a hell-dweller.
> The sun and the moon protect us. (3)

- This is a great help for the seeker in their spiritual practice.

- There are more than ten types of devotion, but they are primarily considered to be ten. Shriman Pandit Pannalalji Soni has compiled and published a book called *Kriyakalāpa*. This is a collection of texts. Panditji himself has compiled some of the chapters in the first chapter. The rest of the collection seems to be ancient. It is possible that the compiler was Pandit Prabhācandra. He has also written commentaries on many useful topics in this collection. He was a scholar and his name was Prabhācandra - this information was given by him himself while writing the concluding verse of the chapter on Nandīśvara-bhakti! - It is difficult to say with certainty whether the collection of all the devotions and other chapters was done by him or whether the current form of *Kriyakalāpa* is a later addition, because, firstly, Soni himself has not provided any systematic information about it. If Soni had been kind enough to mention in the introduction the number of manuscripts he used for the compilation, where they are from, and their date of writing, it would have been a great help in determining how old this collection is. Secondly, it contains many useful topics, but the absence of Pandit Prabhācandra's commentary on them makes it difficult to accept that they were before him. For example, *Prākṛtanirvāṇabhakti*, which is known in the world as *Nirvāṇakāṇḍa*, is included in this collection, but there is no commentary on it by him. While it is located in the middle of other devotions. Soni has clarified the situation in his introduction to the printed *Kriyakalāpa*, but it does not shed complete light on the matter.

- Of the devotions included in this collection, the first chapter contains seven devotions: Siddhi-bhakti, Śruta-bhakti, Cāritra-bhakti, Yogi-bhakti, Ācārya-bhakti, Nirvāṇa-bhakti, and Nandīśvara-bhakti. Of these, Nandīśvara...

1. See *Kriyakalāpa* Introduction, p. 21.
2. "Thus ends the first chapter of *Kriyakalāpaṭīkā* written by Pandit Prabhācandra, describing devotion."
3. It is certain that at the end of the chapter called *Daivaśikaraātrikapratīkramaṇa*, there is a writing available in which the year 1724 is mentioned. Therefore, it can be said that this collection is from before that time. See *Kriyakalāpa*, Introduction, p. 69.
