________________ 138 TATTVARTHA SUTRA This sutra deals with the articles of use or consumption. The emphasis here is on avoiding the use of live objects. Consuming a sentient or live article of food is the first transgression of this restraint; eating the ripe fruits that contain the cultivable seeds is the second; taking the sweets that contain sesame seeds, poppy seeds etc. and eating the rotten food is the third; consumption of wine, liquor or other intoxicating drink is the fourth; and using uncooked or partly cooked food is the fifth transgression of this restraint. सचित्तनिक्षेपपिधानपरव्यपदेशमात्सर्यकालातिक्रमाः // 7-31 // 31: Sachittaniksheppidhanaparvyapadeshmatsaryakalatikramah (Mixing the insentient, covering with the sentient, calling it as belonging to others, jealousy and untimely offering are the five transgressions of the twelfth restraint.) This sutra deals with the restraint of servicing, which is also a disciplinary restraint meant for developing generosity, broad mind and sense of caring. Transgressions of this restraint occur in respect of giving alms to monks and nuns. Putting the eatable articles in contact with a live object so as to render them unacceptable is the first transgression of this restraint; to cover such eatables by live objects with similar intention is the second; to term one's own article as belonging to someone else with the same intention is the third; offering anything with disrespect or feeling jealous of the monk or nun getting rich food in alms is the fourth; and to deliberately remain absent at the time of alms is the fifth transgression of this restraint. जीवितमरणाशंसामित्रानुरागसुखानुबन्धनिदानकरणानि // 7-32 // Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
