Jinabhadra Gapi's (The eleventh जह दीवो निव्वाणो परिणामन्तरनिओ तहा जीवो। भण्णइ परिनिव्वाणो पत्ताऽणाबाहपरिणामे ।। ४४३ ॥ (१९९१) Jaha divo nivvāpo pariņāmantaramio tahã jivo i Bhangai parlnivvăno patto’ņabāhaparıņāmam 1 433 11 (1991)
[ यथा दीपो निर्वाणः परिणामान्तरमितस्तथा जीवः ।
मण्यते परिनिर्वाणः प्रात्पोऽनावाधपरिणामम् ॥ ४४३॥ (१९९१) Yathā dipo nirvanah pariņāmāntaramitastatha jivaḥ Ehanyate parinirvanah prāpto'nabadhaparinamam ||443॥ (1991)]
Trans.- 443 Just as light changed into another from, is said to have attained nirvina (iinal extinction), the Soul also, is said to have attained nirvana (final liberation) when it has turned into a faultless form. (1991)
टीका-ययाऽनन्तरोक्तस्वरूपपरिणामान्तरं प्राप्तः प्रदीपो “निर्वाणः" इत्युच्यते तथा जीवोऽपि कर्मविरहितकेवलामूर्तजीवस्वरूपमावलक्षणःणाषाघं परिणामान्तरं प्राप्तो निर्वाणो निति प्राप्त उच्यते । तस्माद् दुःखादिक्षस्यपा सतोऽवस्था निर्वाणमिति स्थितम् ।। ४४३ ॥ ( १९९१ )
D. C. Just as light is said to have attained nirvana when it changes into darkness, the Soul is also said to have attained nirvāṇa when it has changed into a form which is void of Karma, and which possesses absolutely a-Fürta characterlstics of the form and nature of Soul. This shows that mokşa is nothing but the pure eternal positive condition of jiva when miseries etc are exterminated.
Prabhasa:--If moksa is nothing but the pure eternal positive condition of jiva, at the removal of miseries etc, then, in absence of objects of pleasure like sabda etc, the free Soul will have no happiness 11 443 . (1991)
