Samayasūru
Introduction/Premble to Chapters I & II
of the beginningless delusion is reduced and made ineffective to an appreciable extent by the efforts of the soul under an impelling urge from within. In the course of time the soul attains sufficient purification to overcome the perverted belief and consequently, right world-view/enlightenment dawns upon it. The whole horizon changes, and the perverted knowledge-ajñāna-is transmuted into right knowledge-jñāna and the soul is known as jñānī. Hitherto deluded/false notions (I am and was this, mine is and was all that is non-self, non-living or mixed) (see verses 20 to 22) disappear and the jñāni identifies himself with the self and self alone, as the concluding verse of the first chapter emphasizes. 7. Adhyavasāna (Adhyavasāya): Subtlemost/minutest dispositions of living organism-They are produced in the microbodykarinaśarīra, and proceed towards gross physical body where they are ultimately get transmuted into threefold-mental, vocal and physical-activities. Since they have to pass through the domain of defiling matter, they are infected with attachment, aversion, delusion etc. 8. Jina-Jinendradeva : Omniscient-The original preceptor of the Jain Philosophy. He is vitarāga, i.e., totally free from the infections of attachment and aversion (like & dislike). And he is omniscient i.e., has annihilated the knowledge-obscuring karma and attained omniscience (kevalajñāna) which is competent to directly apprehend the soul (Tīrhankara, Sarvajña, Arihanta are synonyms). 9. Suksma-badara/Paryāpta-aparyāpta : These are various aspects for dividing living organisms into different categories.
