AVIRAT SAMYAGDRISHTI Gunasthanak
Uninterested in Sadhna.
B
y having an absolute faith in the nine tatvas - principles, the Jiva acquires the right vision - but in this stage, man cannot perform such austerities as tapasya, recitation of holy hymns etc. and cannot renounce worldly things; and also cannot make efforts for spiritual attainment. He reflects on the soul but does not attempt to purify it. He will be Avirat i.e he will not take interest in self-discipline and spiritual endeavors. In respect of these things, he will be uninterested and inactive. Though he knows and respects dharma, he does not act according to it. Though he knows what is wrong on adharma, he does not give it up. This kind of cowardly state can be seen in many them.
