## Dashami Dasha (with Hindi Commentary)
**Original Meaning:** O Venerable Ascetic! By performing the **nirgranthi** (free from knots) **nidana-karma** (karma of the past) in this way, and without questioning it, without retreating from it, and without accepting atonement, at the time of death, she enters a particular **dev-lok** (heavenly realm) and is born as a **dev** (god) with great wealth and happiness. Then, due to the exhaustion of her lifespan in that **dev-lok**, without any interval, she leaves her divine body and is born as a child in the lineage of the **Ugra-putra** (fierce sons). Servants ask her, "What do you desire?" Such a person is incapable of listening to the **kevali-bhashit dharma** (the teachings of the omniscient). However, she is full of desires, a **dakshinagami nairyik** (one who goes towards the south, a type of hell), and earns the **durbhalam bodhik karma** (karma that hinders enlightenment). Thus, O Venerable Ascetic! She cannot even hear the **kevali-pratipadit dharma** (the teachings of the omniscient).

When she performs the **nirgranthi** **nidana-karma** in the aforementioned way and does not question it, after death, she is born as a **dev** in a particular **dev-lok**. Then, due to the exhaustion of her lifespan, she is born as a child in the lineage of the **Ugra** etc. in the human realm. There, she is so engrossed in wealth that she does not have the capacity to even listen to the **kevali-pratipadit dharma**. Worldly desires blind her to the path of dharma.
Now, the sutra-kar (author of the sutra) speaks about the fifth **nidana-karma**.

Thus, O Venerable Ascetic! In this dharma, I have declared that a **niggantha** (Jain ascetic) who is practicing the **sikha** (discipline) and is dwelling in the **pura-dig-ichcha** (desire for the four directions), as long as she dwells in **udinna-kama-bhoga** (intense desires and pleasures), she will be reborn in the **parakkama** (higher realms). And while she is dwelling in the **parakkama**, she will be reborn in the **manussaga** (human realm) and will be consumed by **kama-bhoga** (desires and pleasures). The human realm is...
