1. “Sammaditthii sayaa amuuthe."(1)
One who has attained samyaktva enlightened perception is always free from ignorance. It is folly to feel desire, attachment, aversion towards external objects and people. One who has enlightened perception is free from such folly. He is constantly on the alert against developing attachment and aversion.
2. “Samattadansii na kareii paavam.”(2)
One who has enlightened perception does not sin. [Sin pertaining to wrong perception.]
3. "Je ya'buddhaa mahaabhaagaa viiraa asamattadamsino.
Asuddham tesim parakkamtam saphalam hoii savvaso. Je ya'buddhaa mahaabhaagaa viiraa samattadamsino. Suddham tesim parakkamtam aphalam hoii savvaso."(3)
The truthful, non-violent and pious conduct of one who is highly renowned, admired and lauded for his bravery but does not know the true nature of the soul, the essence of dharma and lacks enlightened perception, shall remain imperfect and shall result in the inflow of additional karmas rather than the shedding of karmas from the soul. In contrast, The truthful, non-violent and pious conduct of one who is highly renowned, admired and lauded for his bravery and knows the true nature of the soul, the essence of dharma and has enlightened perception, shall be perfect and shall result in shedding of karmas from the soul and liberation.
4. "Eyaaim micchaaditthisa micchhattapariggahiyaaim micchaasuyam.
Iyaaim cheva sammaditthisa sammatta pariggahiyaaim sammasuyam.”(4)
All true scriptures like the Aachaaraanga Suutra become false scriptures for the deluded ones. But for one who has enlightened perception, the same scriptures become true scriptures. In fact, even false scriptures become true scriptures for the one who has attained enlightened perception. [The scriptures remain the same, only the interpretation is different between deluded and enlightened one]
5. “Tam jaii taava tumam jahaa tirikkhajoniya bhaavanuvagayenam.
Apadiladdha samattarayanalambhenam se paaye paanaapukampaaye jaava antaraa cheva sandhaariye no cheva ne likkhitte."(5)
