THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS.
the same soul assumed both these conditions but from the point of view of change of modifications, the life conditions of a soul in man are different from those in the celestial state.
जो चेव कुणदि सोचव वेदको जस्स एस सिद्धंतो। सो जीवो णादवो मिच्छादिट्ठी प्रणारिहदो ॥ ३५१॥ य एव करोति स एव वेदको यस्यैष सिद्धान्तः। स जीवो ज्ञातव्यो मिथ्यादृष्टिरनार्हतः ॥ ३५१ ॥
351. Know that person to be of perverse belief and not of the Arhat (faith), who thinks that the self-same person who performs an action must have the effect (of that action).
अपणो करेदि अण्णो परिभुंजदि जस्स एस सिद्धंतो। सो जीवो णादव्यो मिच्छादिट्ठी प्रणारिहदो ॥ ३५२ ॥ अन्यः करोत्यन्यः परिभुंक्त यस्य एष सिद्धांतः। स जीवो ज्ञातव्यो मिथ्यादृष्टिरनार्हतः ॥ ३५२ ॥
352. One performs, and another suffers or enjoys (the effect of that action). He who believes thus should be known as a wrong-believer, and not of the Arhat (faith).
Commentary.
Some persons believe the soul to be transient; and others say that it is unchangeable. Both views as absolute are wrong. Under such belief, no one will strive for freedom. Thought of impermanence will make a man hopeless. The impossibility of change will make one irresponsible. Both views are correct from their respective points.
मिच्छत्ता जदि पयड़ी मिच्छादिट्ठी करेदि अप्पाणं । तमा अचेदणा दे पयड़ी णणु कारगो पत्ता ॥ ३५३ ॥ मिथ्यात्वं यदि प्रकृतिमिथ्यादृष्टिं करोत्यात्मानम् । तस्मादचेतना ते प्रकृतिर्ननु कारकः प्राप्तः ॥ ३५३ ॥
