Chapter One Hundred and Six
3.5
When the people of the city learned that the Muni was staying in the garden, they all went there with great joy, eager to pay their respects. ||2||
Hearing the sound of the multitude of devotees, which was like the roar of a cloud, Sri Chandra listened intently and asked those nearby, "Whose sound is this, which is like the ocean?" ||3||
Those who were asked by the king did not know the cause of the sound, so they brought the minister to the king. ||4||
The king then asked the minister, "Find out whose sound this is." The minister went, learned the truth, and returned to inform the king. ||85||
Then, with his eyes shining like blooming lotuses, and his body trembling with joy, the king, along with his wife, set out to pay his respects to the Muni. ||86||
Seeing the Muni, whose face was like the moon, the king bowed his head in reverence and sat down on the ground in humility. ||87||
Seeing the Muni, who was like the sun to the lotus of his mind, the king felt a great love that was beyond words. ||88||
Then, the Muni, who was deeply learned in all the scriptures, gave a discourse on the truth to the vast multitude. ||89||
He said that there are two types of Dharma, the Anāgāra and the Sāgāra, both of which are full of many different aspects and lead to liberation from the cycle of birth and death. ||90||
The Muni, who was the best of speakers, explained the four aspects of the Anuyoginī: 1) Prathamānuyoga, 2) Karaṇānuyoga, 3) Caraṇānuyoga, and 4) Dravyānuyoga. ||91||
Then, he spoke of the Ākṣepaṇī, which criticizes other views, and the Nikṣepaṇī, which explains his own truth. Then, he spoke of the Samvejanī, which inspires fear of the world, and the Nivedanī, which inspires detachment from worldly pleasures and leads to virtue. ||92-93||
He said that for a being who is running through the cycle of birth and death, liberation can only be attained through great effort and through the practice of Karma Yoga. ||94||
