## First Study: Gathapati Ananda
**[59]** The [59] transgressions should always be avoided with zeal, they should not be diminished. Their explanation is as follows:
**Saccitta-nikshepana:** To place objects fit for consumption by an unattached, inanimate, and restrained person in a place where they are mixed with attached, animate things like grains, with the intention of not giving them as charity. Or to mix attached objects with objects fit for consumption. By doing so, the ascetic cannot accept them. This is a deceitful act of not giving charity, not by saying it out loud, but by behavior.
**Saccitta-pidhana:** To cover an unattached object with an attached object with the intention of not giving it as charity, so that the restrained person cannot accept it.
**Kalatikram:** To transgress or violate time. To show a willingness to give charity by delaying the time of giving it. The ascetic or guest who arrives after the time has passed does not take food because their meal has already been taken. This is false hospitality. The person doing this knows in their heart that they will not have to give charity or food, their word will also be kept, and thus they will be able to perform hospitality without actually doing anything.
**Paravyapadesha:** To claim one's own object as belonging to someone else with the intention of not giving it.
**Matsarita:** To give food, etc., out of envy or jealousy. The meaning of envy here is that when someone sees that someone else has given such a donation, they think, "I am not much less than them, I should also give." There is no feeling of charity in this act, but a feeling of ego. Some have interpreted Matsarita as meaning stinginess or miserliness. According to this, being stingy in giving charity falls under this transgression. In some places, Matsarita has also been interpreted as meaning anger. According to them, giving charity or food out of anger is a transgression.

**Discussion**
According to Jain philosophy, the ultimate goal of life is to attain the true nature of the soul. The journey of spiritual practice is to progress in this direction by diminishing the coverings of karma that have come upon it. The body is useful in this. The worldly activities that are accomplished through the body are incidental, from a spiritual perspective...
