________________ SAMVAR PREVENTION OF KARMA 197 seek to avert the same. We should really make use of the comfortable situations for undertaking the virtuous activities and in adverse ones we should think of not repeating the unwholesome activities. That type of contemplation is termed as Vipakvichay. ___iv) Sansthanvichay: Sansthan means the universe. Sansthanvichay therefore means contemplating about the universe. Jeev and Ajeev (soul and lifeless matter) are the constituents thereof. Among the lifeless objects, Pudgal is the most significant, because the worldly life arises from its interaction with soul. Contemplating about such interaction and its impact on soul constitutes Sansthanvichay. These sutras state that Dharmadhyan is feasible in 7th to 12th stages of elevation. The Digambar version of the text, however, specifies its feasibility from 4th to 7th Stages. शुक्ले चाद्ये पूर्वविदः // 9-39 // परे केवलिनः // 9-40 // पृथक्त्वैकत्ववितर्कसूक्ष्मक्रियाप्रतिपातिव्युपरतक्रियानिवृत्तीनि // 941 // तत्त्र्येककाययोगायोगानाम् // 1-42 // एकाश्रये सवितर्के पूर्वे // 9-43 // अविचारं द्वितीयम् // 9-44 // वितर्कः श्रुतम् // 1-45 // विचारोऽर्थव्यञ्जनयोगसङ्क्रान्तिः // 9-46 // 9.39: Shukle Chadye Poorvavidah 9.40: Pare Kevalinah Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only For Private & Personal Use Only www. www.jainelibrary.org
