________________
धर्म को छोड़ने के तीन मुख्य कारण यहाँ शास्त्रकार ने बताये हैं
(१) असहिष्णुता - दुःसह परीषहों को सहन न कर सकना ।
(२) काम - आसक्ति - विविध काम-भोगों की उत्कट लालसा ।
(३) अतृप्ति - अनेक विघ्नों, विरोधों (द्वन्द्वों) एवं अपूर्णताओं से भरे कामों से अतृप्ति ।
इसके साथ ही इनका परिणाम भी यहाँ बता दिया गया है कि वह दीक्षा - त्यागी दुर्गति को न्यौता दे देता है, प्रव्रज्या-त्याग के बाद तत्काल, मुहूर्त भर में या लम्बी अवधि में भी शरीर छूट सकता है और भावों में अतृप्ति बनी रहती है।
Elaboration-The family-renouncing-dhut has been described in the first lesson. The cleansed ascetic who renounces carnal pleasures and pursues ascetic discipline is being described in this lesson. When he renounces his family and gets initiated, the family members wail due to their attachment for him. Adopting the pacifying attitude he treads the path of discipline and celibacy. He properly understands both vasu (conduct of the detached) and anuvasu (the conduct of the partially attached). The commentator (Vritti) has also interpreted vasu as ascetic who has accepted the great vows and anuvasu as a shravak who has accepted minor-vows.
There are Shramans who, in spite of abandoning all affiliations, acquiring pacifying attitude, accepting celibacy or dwelling in the self and truly knowing their religion, become lax in following ascetic discipline. For them it is said that because of this laxity their conduct becomes tainted. This indicates that the aspirant has renounced material things, pacified passions, observed celibacy, and also become a scholar of religion, but only outwardly; internally all this has not happened. In his mind there still remains the desire to acquire things. The moment there is an opportunity, his passions get inflamed. His celibacy is only physical and living with the guru is also just formal. He has not touched the true spirit of religion. Therefore, although in appearance he is cleansed or a renouncer, in reality or internally he is neither cleansed nor a renouncer. He is achai (non-renouncer).
