MOKSHA MARG PRAKASHAK
Thus, it is proved that wherever there is possibility of evolution of Shuddhopayoga (pure, passionless conduct), there, of course, involvement in asupicious acts is forbidden but where Ashubhopayoga (impious conduct) seems to persist, in such situation, one should make effort to engage oneself in Shubhopayoga willfully.
In this way, the one who establishes practice of unrestrained conduct by refuting all kinds of conventional religious practices, has been contradicted.
The Conduct of Nischayaabhasi Jivas Now the conduct of a Nischayaabhasi Jiva is being discussed: He believes that only by knowing one's pure soul one becomes the true believer and nothing else is to be done. Knowing this, he sometimes sits in solitude in meditation posture and feels contented contemplating “I am soul like Siddha devoid of all karmic bondage”; but he never contemplates as to how such a quality is possible. Sometimes he meditates upon self soul through the medium of qualities like immovable (Achala), indivisible (Akhanda) and unrivalled (Anupama), etc. So, these qualities are possible in other substances also. Further, he does not think as to from what point of view these qualities are possible. And sometimes while sleeping or sitting, in whatever state he is, he believes himself to be true believer due to such thoughts.
It is stated in scriptures that a true believer is free from influx and bondage. Therefore, (under the veil of this statement) he sometimes indulges in sensual pleasures and passional acts. There he has no fear of bondage and indulges in passional acts unrestrainedly.
But the sign of evolution of the knowledge of'self and ‘non-self is the spirit of renunciation. The same is stated in Samayasara: "Frpiozafafa fauna Florifini:" 1 i.e., “A true believer assuredly possesses the power of right knowledge and renunciation."
