अजघन्य-अनुत्कृष्ट-संयमलब्धिस्वरूप निरूपण
ली तहा चरित्तस्से त्ति समत्तमणिओगद्दारं ।
संभव नहीं है । परिणामोकी तीव्रता - मन्दताके विना चारित्रलब्धिका जघन्य या उत्कृष्ट अंश होना संभव नहीं है । इसलिए भले ही एक समय पश्चात् उपशान्तकषायवीतरागसंयत नीचे गिर जाय, परन्तु अपने कालंके अन्तिम समय तक उसके परिणामोंकी विशुद्धिमें कोई कमी नहीं आती । अतः पतनावस्था में उनके यथाख्यातलव्धिका जघन्य अंश नहीं माना जा सकता । यही बात तेरहवें गुणस्थानके अभिमुख क्षीणकषायके या चौदहवें गुणस्थानके अभिमुख सयोगिकेवली के विपयमे है, अर्थात् उनकी लब्धिको भी उत्कृष्ट अंशरूप नहीं माना जा सकता । अतएव यह सिद्ध हुआ कि कपायके अभाव से सभी वीतरागोके यथाख्यातसंयमरूप लब्धि एकरूप होती है, उसमें कोई भेद नहीं होता । यही कारण है कि उनकी लब्धिको हॉपर अजघन्य - अनुत्कृष्ट अर्थात् जघन्यपना और उत्कृष्टपनासे रहित बतलाया गया है ।
इस प्रकार संयमलब्धि नामक तेरहवाँ अनुयोगद्वार समाप्त हुआ ।

**Exposition of the Nature of Restraint-Attained-Goodness as Neither Inferior Nor Superior**

It is not possible. It is not possible for there to be an inferior or superior aspect of character-attainment without the intensity or mildness of the result. Therefore, even though a person who has subdued the passions and is free from attachment may fall later, there is no diminution in the purity of their results until the end of their time. Therefore, the inferior aspect of their attainment, as it is known, cannot be considered in the state of fall. The same is true in the case of the one who is facing the thirteenth stage of virtue, with their passions weakened, or the one who is facing the fourteenth stage of virtue, with their passions completely subdued, that is, their attainment cannot be considered as superior either. Therefore, it is proven that due to the absence of passions, the attainment of all those who are free from attachment is the same in terms of restraint-attained-goodness, as it is known, and there is no difference in it. This is the reason why their attainment has been described as neither inferior nor superior, that is, devoid of inferiority and superiority.

Thus ends the thirteenth gate of the path, called Restraint-Attained-Goodness.
[Verse 115]
