दशाश्रुतस्कन्धसूत्रम्
प्रत्येक स्थान पर अधर्म का अनुमोदन करता हुआ, फलतः अधर्म का अनुगामि हो जाता है | श्रुत और चारित्र धर्म का सर्वथा त्याग कर अधर्म को ही अपना इष्ट (प्रिय) बना लेता है और निरन्तर उसकी सेवा करने में लगा रहता है । वह अधर्म को ही देखता है और उसी से राग आलापने लगता है । वह अधर्म को ही अपना आचार व्यवहार और सब कुछ समझता है और उसी से अपनी आजीविका करता हुआ विचरण करता है । उसकी वृत्ति धर्म की निन्दा कर लोगों पर अपना प्रभाव जमाने की हो जाती है ।
सूत्र में दिये हुए "अधर्म - प्रजनक " इस समस्त पद का निम्नलिखित अर्थ है:
"अधर्मं प्रकर्षेण जनयति लोकानामपीति - अधर्म - प्रजनकः ! क्वचिद् "अधम्म - पलज्जणे " इति पाठोऽपि दृश्यते तत्राधर्म-प्रायेषु कर्मसु प्रकर्षेण रज्यते - आसज्जति इति अधर्म-प्ररज्ञनः । 'रलयोरैक्यमिति' रकारस्य स्थाने लकारोऽत्र विहितः ।" 'अधर्म-प्रजनक' का अर्थ लोक में अधर्म उत्पन्न करता हुआ ।

Translation AI Generated

The translation preserving the Jain terms is as follows:

"He who approves of adharma (unrighteousness) at every place, consequently becomes a follower of adharma. He completely abandons the dharma of shruta (scriptural knowledge) and charitra (right conduct), and makes adharma his own dear one, and remains constantly engaged in serving it. He sees only adharma and starts praising it. He considers adharma as his conduct, behavior, and everything, and carries on his livelihood by it. His tendency becomes that of defaming dharma and establishing his influence over people.

The entire phrase "adharma-prajnaka" given in the sutra means: "He who greatly generates adharma among the people - the adharma-prajnaka (generator of adharma)! Somewhere the reading 'adhamm-palajjane' is also seen, wherein he greatly delights - gets attached to adharma-predominant karmas (actions). The letter 'l' is substituted for 'r' here."

The meaning of 'adharma-prajnaka' is: "He who generates adharma in the world."

Sixth stage:
Thus, the conclusion is that the nastika (non-believer) makes his life sinful. He abandons good conduct and indulges in misconduct.

Further, the description of the condition of the nastika is given in the following sutra:

"Hana, chinda, bhinda, vikartaka, lohita-pani, cande, rudde, khuddhe, asamikkhiyakari, sahassie, ukkancana, vancana, mai, niyadi, kudamai, sai-sampayoga-bahule, dussile duppariccae, ducariye, duranunnea, duvvae, duppattianande, nissile nivvae, niggune, nimmere, nipaccakkhana-posahopavase, asahu."

(The nastika is) "the destroyer, cutter, splitter, mutilator, bloodthirsty, cruel, fierce, mean, one who does not consider, audacious, deceitful, fraudulent, illusory, crafty, dishonest, addicted to sensual pleasures, of bad character and bad company, of bad conduct, difficult to be advised, of bad vows, of bad joy, devoid of good character and vows, devoid of virtues, without shame, one who does not observe the vows of posadha (fast)."
