Essentials of
Sensual
of the external deceiving displayes. gratification indeed cannot yield any happiness; the soul finds no any well being there; the sensuality never not only of no any avail but also it obscures the way to soul and denies its essence, and the Jiva unbrokenly and continuously comes across and experiences that the sensuality often deceives, yet the foolish and mad Jiva stumbles and strives to enjoy sense pleasures which in fact are pains, sorrows in a disguised from. Acharya expresses his
surprise at
such
Jiva. It
sensuality
understanding that dependent, furious and fierce, and
is common
is temporal burning cause
of stagnation and retardation, effect of stagnation and unprogress, form of sorrow and unhappiness, in which Jiva finds no grain of satisfaction and happiness. It being so, still the Jiva covered by darkness and smoke of ignorance goes after to find pleasure flowing from sensuality and Acharya regrets at and wonders of this.
