132. The knowers of reality call him a saint, a con. queror of delusion, who has got rid of deluded thoughtactivity, and who realises the soul possessed of its inherent perfect knowledge.
Commentary. The previous Gáthá refers to saints below the 11th stage of subsidential ladder; while this refers to those in the 11th spiritual stage of subsided delusion. Here no passions operate and modification of consciousness of the saint is directed quite undisturbed to his own pure self-realisation. Just as an iron rod which was redhot with fire becomes cool on removal of heat, so the soul on removal of operation of passion Karmas becomes peaceful, passionless and self-absorbed
जो धम्मं तु मुइत्ता जाणदि उवभोगमप्पयं सुद्धं । तं धम्मसंगमुकं परमट्टवियाणया विति ॥ १३३॥ यः धर्म तु मुक्त्वा जानाति उपयोगमात्मानं शुद्धं । तं धर्मसंगमुक्तं परमार्थविज्ञायका विदंति ॥ १३३ ॥
133. The knowers of reality call him as detached from the company of meritorious deeds, who after having given up meritorious thought-activities realises the pure soul full of conscious attentiveness.
Commentary.
This Gátha refers generally to all who have diverted their thoughts even from all good actions of worship, study, prayer, etc., and have modified their thoughts exclusively to realisation of pure self. A right-believing person with good thought paint can restrain his mind to pure concentration. He is then the enjoyer of his own pure conscious modification.
जं कुणदि भावमादा कत्ता सो होदि तस्स भावस्त । णाणिस्त दु णाणमओ अण्णाणमभोप्रणाणिस्त॥१३४॥ यं करोति भावमात्मा कर्ता स भवति तस्य भावस्य । ज्ञानिनस्तु ज्ञानमयोऽज्ञानमयोऽज्ञानिनः ॥ १३४ ॥
