Soul Science : Samayasāra by Jain Acārya Kundakunda
131
Annotation
One may have this notion or doubt that sometimes some Bhāva of a Jñānī may lack Jñāna. Based on some physical, vocal, and mental activities of a Jñānī, an Ajñāni may have such notion. Since an Ajñāni identifies a soul with the associated body and mind, therefore, an Ajñānī may have such doubt. To clarify this point, in Gāthā 128, Ācārya explains that all Bhāva of a Jñānī are full of Jñāna. A Jñānī never considers any activity of body, mind, and other externals as an activity of the Self, and his soul never considers itself as the doer of activities of the associated body, mind, and other externals, therefore, there cannot be any Ajñāna Bhāva. An Ajñāna Bhāva is that Bhāva which considers the Self as the owner or doer of activities of mind, body, or other externals (see Gāthā 127, 92, 75, 19, etc., in this regard). It may be noted that if at any moment any living being has Bhāva of identifying the Self as the doer or owner of activities of mind, body, or other externals then he is not a Jñānī at that moment.
Similarly, Gāthā 129 clarifies this point that Bhāva of an Ajñānī are filled with Ajñāna.
To explain these points further, Ācārya has written Gāthā 130 and 131. In these stanzas he gives an analogy. He wants to say that anything made of gold has characteristics of gold, and anything made of iron has characteristics of iron. In this analogy, if we put Jñāna for gold and Ajñāna for iron then we would say that in case of a Jñānī, Bhāva filled with Jñāna are produced, and in case of an: Ajñānī, Bhāva filled with Ajñāna are produced.
