________________ 35555555555555555555555 F F F F 5 20. [Q.] Bhante! People of other faiths say, assert, elaborate and propagate that a jiva (living being/soul) in one instant acquires two ayushya (karmas determining life-spans)—the span of this life and the span of the next life. While acquiring the ayushya for this life he also fi acquires ayushya for next life and while acquiring the ayushya for next life he also acquires ayushya for this life. By acquiring the ayushya for this life he acquires ayushya for next life and by acquiring the ayushya for next life he acquires ayushya for this life. Thus in one instant a jiva fi acquires two ayushya (life-span determining karmas)-the span of this life and the span of the next life. Bhante ! Is it so ? 5 F Fi Fi F F ENENEN 455 F [Ans.] Gautam ! As regards people of other faiths who say... and so on up to... acquires two ayushya (life-span determining karmas)-the span of this life and the span of the next life, what they say is false. Gautam ! 45 Here is what I say, assert, elaborate and propagate that a jiva (living F being/soul) in one instant acquires just one ayushya (karmas determining life-span)-either the span of this life or the span of the next life. While acquiring the ayushya for this life he does not acquire ayushya for next life and while acquiring the ayushya for next life he does not acquires ayushya for this life. By acquiring the ayushya for this F life he does not acquire ayushya for next life and by acquiring the ayushya for next life he does not acquire ayushya for this life. Thus in one instant a jiva acquires just one ayushya (life-span determining karmas) either the span of this life or the span of the next life. 455 F F F 45 F F LI LE - F F "Bhante! Indeed that is so. Indeed that is so." With these words... and so on up to... ascetic Gautam resumed his activities. विवेचन : दो आयुष्यबन्ध क्यों नहीं ? - यद्यपि आयुष्यबन्ध के समय जीव इस भव के आयुष्य को वेदता है और परभव के आयुष्य को बाँधता है, किन्तु उत्पन्न होते ही या इसी भव में एक साथ दो आयुष्यों का बन्ध नहीं करता; अन्यथा, इस भव में किये जाने वाले दान-धर्म आदि सब व्यर्थ हो जायेंगे। (वृत्ति, पत्रांक ९८-९९) Elaboration-Why negation of dual bondage ?-Although at the time of acquiring bondage of life-span determining karmas a living being experiences the karmas of this life-span and acquires the karmas of next life-span; however, on rebirth or after that he does not acquire karmas for two life-spans at the same time. This is because if he could do so all pious and religious activities like charity would become worthless.
