. THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS.
Commentary. A right believer therefore does not boast that he can make others happy at his own will and choice. He thinks that if he attempts to do good to others he is merely an auxiliary cause. A wrong believer forgets this fact and is proud of his activities of mind, body and speech, if they are directed towards the good of others.
सव्वे करेदि जीवो अज्झवसाणेण तिरियणेरइए। देवमणुवेपि सव्वे पुण्णं पावं अणेयविहं ॥ २८५॥ सर्वान् करोति जीवानध्यवसानेन तिर्यनरायकान् । देवमनुजांश्च सर्वान् पुण्यं पापं च नैकविधं ॥ २८५॥
285. The soul by its thought-activity identifies itself with sub-human, hellish, celestial and human (conditions of existence) and also with many kinds of merit and demerit.
धम्माधम्मं च तहा जीवाजीवे अलोगजोगं च । सव्वे करेदि जीवो अज्झवसाणेण अप्पाणं ॥ २८६ ॥ धर्माधर्म च तथा जीवाजीवी अलोकलोकं च । सर्वान् करोति जीवः अध्यवसानेन प्रात्मानम् ॥ २८६ ॥
286. Similarly the soul by its thought-activity identifies itself with Dharma and Adharma (substances); soul and non-soul and the non-universe and the universe.
Commentary.
A wrong believer entertains the false idea that he is a king. a general, a rich, or learned person or that he is very happy or that he knows the whole universe and non-universe. A right believer is always convinced, and feels no pride in agreeable things and no sorrow amidst disagreeable circumstances.
एदाणि णत्थि जेसिं अज्झवसाणाणि एवमादीणि । ते असुहेण सुहेण य कम्मेण मुणी ण लिप्पंति ॥ २८७॥ एतानि न सन्ति येषामध्यवसानान्येवमादीनि । तेऽशुभेन शुभेन वा कर्मणा मुनयो न लिप्यन्ति ॥ २८७ ॥
