The Forty-Seventh Chapter 473. Shraddha (faith) arises immediately, like an ocean of teachings. It is quickly understood from the scriptures, which speak of the various types of austerities, beginning with the Acharaanga. 443. The taste (ruchi) that arises from these is called Sutraja (arising from the Sutras). 444. The taste that arises from the subtle meaning of the seeds (bija) is called Beejaj (arising from the seeds). 445. The taste that arises from the concise explanation of the objects (padartha) is called Sanksepaj (arising from the concise explanation). The taste that arises from the detailed explanation of the same is called Vistaraj (arising from the detailed explanation). 446. The taste that arises from understanding the principles, the means of understanding, the deviations, and other means, through detailed explanations, is called Vistaraj (arising from the detailed explanation). 447. The taste that arises from the understanding of the principles, as explained in the Angas, is called Angadibhasit (arising from the Angas). 448. The taste that arises from the understanding of the meaning alone, without the detailed explanation of the words, from a great teacher, is called Arthaj (arising from the meaning). 449. The taste that arises from the contemplation of the harmony between the Angas, the external scriptures, and the inner self, is called Samudrata (like an ocean). 450. The faith that arises from the diminishing of delusion is called Avagaadha (deep). 451. The taste that arises from the understanding of all things, as seen through the knowledge of the Self, is called Paramavagaadha (supremely deep). This is what the great sages say. 452. O great one, among these faiths, you have many today. 453. Besides these, there are sixteen pure causes, such as the purity of vision, as described in the scriptures. 454. A bhavya (future being) binds the karma of the name of a Tirthankara by all these causes, or by some of them, as they are obtained. 455. You will bind the karma of the name of a Tirthankara by some of these causes, such as faith, and will enter the first earth, called Ratnaprabha. 456. You will enjoy the fruits of that earth for a medium lifespan and then exit. 457. Then, O bhavya, you will become the first Tirthankara of the future Utsarpini time, called Mahapadma, and you will bring welfare to the virtuous. 458. You are a near bhavya, so do not fear the cycle of existence. 459. King Srenic, who was saddened by the news of his attainment of the Ratnaprabha earth, asked again, "O master, who holds the wealth of wisdom, is there anyone else in this city, which is a house of merit, who will go to hell?" 460. The Ganadhar Bhagavan replied, "Yes, in this city, Kalasaukarik and the daughter of a Brahmin, Shubha, will also enter hell." 461. "Why will they enter hell?" 462. "If you want to know, listen. Kalasaukarik was born in a low family in this city. Although he was very sinful before, he bound the karma of a human lifespan seven times due to the force of his bhava-sthiti (state of being). Now he remembers his past lives, and he always thinks like this..."
