(25) To disturb the senior monk during his lecture by saying 'you don't remember it properly', (26) To ask senior monk to stop the lecture, (27) To disperse the assembly during the lecture of senior monk, (28) To repeat something which the senior monk had said during the talk of the senior so that the audience may disperse, to repeat it twice and thrice if public does not disperse, (29) To speak during the lecture of the senior monk thus causing disturbance, (30) To sit by the side of senior monk like the senior monk, (31) Sit on seat higher than that of the senior monk, (32) To remain sitting at one's seat even if the senior monk says otherwise, (33) To reply from one's seat the question asked by the senior monk.
Such transgressions adversely affect the ascetic conduct. They should, therefore, he discarded.
The figures 33 can be arrived at by totalling Indras-20 of Bhavanpati gods, 10 of Vaimanik gods, 2 of Jyotishk gods and one Chakravarti.
The Above said is what the Tirthankars have stated. They are permanent and true. So one should have full faith in them. He should not have any lurking doubt about them. Considering them properly, he should avoid violence. He should adopt them meticulously in his conduct. Thus becoming free from any mundane desire of the result of such conduct, keeping himself away from the ego of wealth, status and others, avoiding greed and ignorance, he should control his mind, speech and action. One who has such a faith, he is the real monk.
Elaboration-The text is quite clear. It has been interpreted wherever necessary to explain its meaning. The purpose is that the Tirthankar has clearly classified what one should discard, what one should invite in his life and what one should know. It is all perfectly true, there is no reason for having any doubt in them. So one should completely avoid what is to be discarded, he should invite in life what is to be practiced and he should keep in mind with clear sense of discrimination what is to be known. A monk should not have any desire for the post of Indra and the like and of world enjoyments in future. He should not have ego or greed. He should stop inflow of Karma mentally, vocally and physically.
