________________ Mithyatva. In other words, to consider as God one who is not worthy to be called God, to consider as Guru one who does not deserve to be a guiding preceptor and to accept as Dharma (religion) what is contrary to Dharma is Mithyatva. सर्वज्ञो जितरागादि-दोषस्त्रैलोक्य पूजितः । यथास्थितार्थवादी च देवोऽर्हन् परमेश्वरः || ४ || Meaning One who is omniscient and knows about the nature of all things; one who has triumphed over the passions of attachment and hatred; one who is worthy of obeisance by all beings; and one who is always truthful is called the highest divinity or the supreme lord Arhant. ध्यातव्योऽयमुपास्योऽयमयं शरणमिष्यताम् । अस्यैव प्रतिपत्तव्यं शासनं चेतनास्ति चेत् ॥५॥ Meaning: If you have a sense of discrimination regarding the good and evil, or any iota of consciousness about the nature of things, you would certainly surrender to this supreme lord and worship him. स्त्रीशस्त्राक्षसूत्रादिरागाद्यङ्ग कलंकिताः । निग्रहानुग्रहपरास्ते देवाः स्युर्न मुक्तये ॥६॥ ये Meaning: The Gods who are tainted with the passions of attachment and hostility and hence have women and weapons alongwith strings of beads, who Second Chapter Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only 29 www.jainelibrary.org
