## Aaturpratyakhyanaprakirnakam
**17.** Hearing this, the dispassion of the one with small karma arose. Having given his daughter in marriage to someone, and given him wealth and other things,
**18.** he went out to some place, and brought the Yoga-udvahana. He diligently studied the three Uttara-adhyayana, which were very clear.
**19.** He also studied the Turya-adhyayana, which is called "Asanskruta", with ease. From that, the karma-udaya arose, which is called "Jnana-avaraneya".
**20.** For two days, he studied that, and he did not speak to anyone, even though he was in great distress due to the other obligations.
**21.** Then, he was asked by his teachers, "What is it that you are allowed to do?" He said, "O Bhagavan, what is Yoga?" Then the teacher said,
**22.** "As long as you do not reach this, you will be in the Aachama state." He said, "I have already done that, by listening and by penance."
**23.** Then he performed the Aachama, for twelve years, with great concentration. He destroyed his karma with ease, and he enjoyed the knowledge he had gained.
**24.** He also quickly studied the remaining scriptures. He was a great intellect, and he became a devotee of the scriptures. He became happy everywhere, both in this world and the next.
## 2. An example of Anaachaara-dhyana from the Konkana Sadhu, from the Sri Kalpasutra Subodhikaatika
Just as a merchant from the Konkana region, who had become a monk in his old age, once stayed for a long time in a place where the Aryapathis were being cremated. He was asked by his teachers, "What have you been thinking about during this long time of cremation?" He replied, "Swamin! I have been thinking about the welfare of living beings." When asked how, he said, "In my previous life as a householder, I had many grains of rice, which were obtained after cutting down trees in the fields. Now, if my sons do not cut down trees, how will they have rice, and how will they be able to live?" He spoke truthfully, and expressed his opinion as it was. The teacher said, "O great one! You have misunderstood. This is not right for a Yati." He was then given a false punishment.

**3.** They said, "You must give me your darshan, quickly, because I am in the Deva-bhavana state." Even though they said this, none of them went to heaven.
**4.** Then, one day, they said to their beloved disciple, "We will take you out of this world." They said this with great force, and their words were choked with emotion.
