HOM
ATMA-SIDDHI
He takes for a True Teacher one who has the external of renunciation, but has no knowledge (of the self), or has deluded affection in the teacher of his own birth-religion.

A Bigot confounds Truth with mere glories of Tirthankars, Founders of religion. जे जिनदेहप्रमाणने, समवसरणादि सिद्धि । वर्णन समजे जिननुं, रोकि रहे नि बुद्धि ॥ २५ ॥ जिनस्य ऋद्धिं देहादिमानं च जिनवर्णनम् । मनुते, स्वीयबुद्धिं य स्तत्रैवाऽभिनिविशते ॥ २५ ॥
He understands the Jina ( conqueror ) to be the description of the size etc., of the body of the Jina (conqueror), or the Hall of the Audience (Samavasarana) etc. and confines his intelligence (to these external manifestations of the real Self-realisation of the conqueror.)

A Bigot is Perverse.
