505 (reall agent of amprehension is jiva. Because of its power of recollection) even when they cease to work and for want of apprehension even when they are working, the soul is distinguished from sense-organs like an observer from the five windows. (1925-1996)
टीका-अनोख्या पूर्ववत् । केवलं प्रस्तुते भावार्थ उच्यते- यदी. न्द्रियाण्युपलब्धिमन्ति भवेयुस्तदा ननिवृत्तावप्युपन्धिनित्तिर्भवेत्, न चैतदस्ति, अन्वय-व्यतिरेकाभ्यां जीवस्योपलब्धिमत्वनिश्चयादिति ॥ ४४७४४८ ।। (१९९५-१९९६ ॥
D. C.-If the indirigens were the real agents of apprca hension, there would have heen no perception wien they ceased to work. But it does not happen so. On the other hand, when they worl.ed, perception should positively take place, but due to the absent-niindedness of the observer it does not happen so. The power of jiva is thus established from the positive, as well as, negative point of view.11447-44811 (1995-1996)
Indicating that jnana would not vanish with indriyas, but it is the very innate nature of jîva, the author states-- नाणरहिओन जीवो सरूवओऽणु व मुत्तिभावेणं ।
जं तेण विरुद्धमिदं अस्थि य सो नागरहिओ य ॥ ४४९ ॥ (१९९७) Nāņar ahii 17 jivi, sarūvao'ņu vva muttibhāvéņam i Jain téya viruddhamidam atthi ya so nānarahiii ya 11449।। (1997) [ ज्ञानरहितो न जीवः स्वरूपतोऽणुरिव मूर्तिभावेन ।
यत् तेन विरुद्धमिदमस्ति च स ज्ञानरहितश्च ॥ ४४९ ॥ (१९९७) Jnānarabitö na jivah Svarūpato'guriva mirtibhayena i Yat téna viruddhamidamasti ca sa jnānarahita ca 144911 (1997)]
Trans.---449 Like an atom, jiva as such is not void of cognizance, because of its corporeal nature. Hence, the statement that it is voil of cognizance is incorrect. (1997)
