The Path of Arhat : A Religious Democracy
universe has a cause and the results which we are reaping are generated by the causes supplied by us. If we are children of 'sorrow', the sorrow is also of our making. Mahavira would also not agree with Silenus that the 'best' is 'unobtainable' though he may agree that the 'best' is 'not to be born' or 'to be nothing'. Journey to freedom is a journey 'to be nothing' which means 'to be everything', though desiring nothing and doing nothing. It is therefore a journey to achieve the stage of a Vitaraga, who does not require “to be born' again.
