The Ratnakaranda Shravaka Chara, now illustrating the quality of non-doubtfulness in right faith, says: "In a body naturally impure, purified by the three jewels, there is non-disgust, delight in qualities, and non-doubtfulness." (13)

"Non-doubtfulness" is accepted. What is it? Non-disgust is the absence of doubt. Where? In the body. What is special about it? It is naturally impure, defiled by its very nature. Even in such a body, "purified by the three jewels," it is brought to reverence. Why is there no disgust in such a body? "Delight in qualities" - because there is delight in the qualities, the characteristics of liberation, which are the foundation of the three jewels. This human body is the means of liberation, not the body of a god or anything else. Therefore, there is no disgust there. (13)

Now, illuminating the quality of non-delusion in right faith, it says: "In the path of deceit, there is no agreement with the sorrows, even in the deceitful one. Non-attachment, non-praise, is called non-deluded vision." (14)

Non-deluded vision is right faith, characterized by the quality of non-delusion. What is it? "Non-agreement" - there is no agreement of the mind with the means of happiness. Where? "In the path of deceit" - in the wicked path, in false faith, etc. How? "In the path" - in the way. Of what? "Of sorrows." Not only is there no agreement there, but also "even in the deceitful one" - even in the being who is based on false faith, etc. Similarly, "non-attachment" - there is no attachment, no praise of the body with nails, hair, etc. "Non-praise" - there is no praise, no verbal commendation. Non-praise of the mind, speech, and body, of false faith, etc., and of those who hold it, is non-deluded, right faith. (14)

Now, explaining the quality of acceptance, it says: "That which is spoken by those who are pure in their own path, who are the refuge of the young and the weak, and which they accept, is called acceptance." (15)
