pain-feeling Karma. He calmly uses medicine for it and tries to be cured, and feels no worry. Similarly a right knower calmly bears the effects of Karmas and is not affected by them.
जो पुण णिरावराहो चेदा णिस्सकिदो दु सो होदि । आराहणाय णिचं वदि महमिदि वियाणंतो॥३३७॥ यः पुनर्निरपराधश्चेतयिता निःशंकितस्तु स भवति । आराधनया नित्यं वर्त्तते अहमिति विजानन् ॥ ३३७ ॥
337. Again the faultless soul, remains fearless. Realising the “I” it is ever engrossed in self-devotion,
Commentary. A right-believing, and therefore faultless person, is brave and has no fear of being destroyed or injured. He is ever engaged in self-devotion and meditates that “I am the pure, peaceful, happy soul.” He attains self-realisation.
ण मुयदि पयडिमभव्वो सुट्ठवि अज्झाइदूण सच्छाणि । गुडदुर्लपि पिवंताण पएणया णिविसा होति ॥३३८॥ न मुंचति प्रकृतिम भव्यः सुष्ट्वपि अधीत्य शास्त्राणि । गुडदुग्धमपि पिबन्तो न पन्नगा निर्विषा भवंति ॥ ३३८ ।।
338. The soul incapable of Liberation, even after having read the scriptures, does not give up Karmas. Serpents may drink sugar and milk, but they do not thereby become poisonless. णिठवेदसमावएणो णाणी कम्मफलं वियाणादि । महुरं कडुवं बहुविहमवेदको तेण पण्णत्तो ॥ ३३६ ॥ निर्वेदसमापन्नो ज्ञानी कर्मफलं विजानाति । . मधुरं कटुकं बहुविधमवेदको तेन प्रज्ञतः ॥ ३३६ ॥
339. Fixed in non-attachment, the knower knows the fruition of Karmas, sweet, bitter, of many kinds. He is therefore described as non-affected.
