________________ 56 ABUNDANT JOY OF SENTIMENTS The intensive attchment to materialistic things prior to attainment of 'JIN SHASAN' should go away and the intensive interest towards the soul should get cultivated. Approach of gaining happiness should go away and approach of gaining more and more virtues should get cultivated, Instead of an approach of gaining pure fortune of very noble deeds and total destruction of actions should be cultivated; and that should get completely realised. In place of slandering of others and self-praise, an aim of attachment towards virtues + praising of virtues should get stronger, instead of stopping someone with some adverse remark and an approach of breaking others, in their places Stillness, Steadyness + inspiration + enthusiastic encouragement these things will be there in foundation of new wonderful, intensive interest for total transformation of your life. Instead of eating, in giving food to otheres, eagerness to perform penance, instead of pampering the body, by medium of 'SADHANA' extracting the real essence for the noble cause, instead of easy work, choice of noble deed, virtuous work, instead of the end of any work without obstacles, the intensive desire to complete any action or work unblemished, instead of pleasing the apparently seen world, an intensive desire to please unseen lord of the world, instead of improving actions only, an intensive desire to transform basic raw instincts, instead of making efforts to remove adversities, the strong desire to force the laziness to get lost, instead of making outer things strong, to give tremendous strength to the inner energies to gain more and more righteous, virtuous things; feelings of blossoming beauty of the soul rather than feelings to beautify the body, Instead of power, strength, the demand for purity, instead of peace, concern for 'SAMADHI', if in this manner your approach for the transformed world is cultivated then and then only you can gain me. For comming near to me, this can be called the third step taken. Jain Educationa International For Personal and Private Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
