THE MESSAGE
Even he whose mind is numbed by illusion, and who is deeply involved in 5 sinful activities, and devoid of virtues, is made virtuous by the blessings of 15 an accomplished Guru, in the same way the polluted water of the ditch was 15 made pure and good quality water. (1)

चातुर्याम धर्म-चार महाव्रत वाला धर्म। भगवान पार्श्वनाथ के समय में चातुर्याम धर्म प्रचारित था। इसके र अंतर्गत चार महाव्रत थे-अहिंसा, सत्य, अस्तेय तथा अपरिग्रह। इसमें परिग्रह के त्याग में स्त्री व परिवार का त्याग टा 15 स्वाभाविक रूप से सम्मिलित है। भगवान महावीर ने अपरिग्रह में रही ब्रह्मचर्य सम्बन्धी अस्पष्टता को दूर करने के दी के लिए ब्रह्मचर्य को पृथक् कर महाव्रत के रूप में स्थापित किया। वह पंचयाम धर्म या पंचमहाव्रत वाला धर्म SI
कहलाया। माना जाता है कि प्रथम एवं अन्तिम तीर्थंकर के समय पंच महाव्रत धर्म का प्रचलन रहता है।

APPENDIX
17 Chaturyam Dharma-The four-fold Dharma. During the period of the influence of SI
Bhagavan Parshvanath this four fold Dharma was popular. In it were four great vows
Ahimsa, truth, non-stealing, and non-possession. Here non-possession naturally included not 2 possessing a wife and family. In order to clear the ambiguity about celibacy, Bhagavan S
Mahavir separated it from non-possession and included it as an independent great vow. This
new form became known as Panchayam or five fold Dharma, or the Dharma with five great 2 vows. It is believed that this five fold Dharma is prevalent during the periods of influence of S
the first and the last Tirthankar of a time cycle.
