________________ 625 Indrabhati Gautama--Ananda ! A Si avaka house-holder can certainly have Avadhi Jnāna but he cannot have such far-reaching Avadhi Jnāna as you have been telling me. O worthy man ! You should make atonement for giving out doubtful utterances. Ananda Śrâvaka :-Bhagavan ! Is there an ordinance of atonement in Jaina Siddhāntas, for clearly declaring truths ? Indrabhati Gautama :-No Ananda ! Such is not the case. Ananda Śravaka :-Therefore, O Bhagavan ! You should do the atonement. Because, by rejecting my assertion, you are giving rise to a false theory.' Canadhara Mahārāja Indrabhuûti Gautama had grave doubts in his mind on hearing the taik of Ananda Srāvaka. As soon as he went to śramaga Bhagavāna Mahävira at Dyutipalssa, he showed the food-materials to the Worshipful Lord, and having done the necessary religious rites, he asked śramaņa Bhagavāna Mahîvîra regarding Ananda Sråvak's Avadhi Jiāna, saying :-Bhagavan ! In this matter, should Ănanda Śrävaka do the atonement or I ? Bhagavana :-Gautama ! In this matter, you should do atonement and you should ask Ananda Śrāvak's pardon, Immediately on receiving the permission from Śramana Bhagavāna Mahavira, the highly obedient Gapadhara Mahārāja Indra. bhûti Gautama went to Ananda Śrăvaka and having repented for his error, he asked pardon from Ananda Śravaka. Śramaņa Bhagavāna Mahävira lived at Vaifall during the rainy season of the Thirty-fifth year of his Ascetic Life. Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
