**Ratnakaranḍakaśrāvakācāra**

This text discusses the different types of subjects within the Ratnakaranḍakaśrāvakācāra. It states:

"The first Anuyoga is called Ākhyāna, Carita, Purāṇa, and Puṇya.
The Bodhi, Samādhi, and Nidhāna are known as Bodha, which is appropriate." (2)

"Bodha" refers to true Śruta-jñāna (knowledge gained from scriptures). "Bodhati" means "knows." What does it know? The first Anuyoga. What is meant by the term "Prathama Anuyoga"? It is explained as "Carita, Purāṇa, and both." Carita refers to a story based on a single person, while Purāṇa refers to a story based on sixty-three Śalākāpuruṣas (illustrious persons). Both of these fall under the term "Prathama Anuyoga." The term "Ākhyāna" is used to distinguish it from other types of stories, as it focuses on the ultimate meaning and subject matter. Similarly, "Puṇya" refers to the first Anuyoga because listening to it generates Puṇya (merit).

"Bodhi, Samādhi, and Nidhāna" refer to the attainment of Samyagdarsana (right faith) for those who have not yet attained it, and the continued attainment of Samādhi (concentration) and Dharmashukla (purity of Dharma) for those who have already attained it. Listening to this Anuyoga leads to the attainment of Darsana, Dharma, and Dhāyana (meditation).

"Thus, in this world, the knowledge of the directions is chanted and spoken. The Karana are like a group of days that have passed." (1)

"The division of the world and the non-world, the cycle of Yugas, and the four Gatis (paths of existence) are like a mirror, reflecting the Karana Anuyoga." (3)

"Tatha" refers to the Prathama Anuyoga section. "Mati" refers to contemplation and Śruta-jñāna. "Avaiti" means "knows." What does it know? "Karana Anuyoga," which includes the division of the world and the non-world, and the characteristics of the five Sangrahas (collections). How is it like a mirror? Just as a mirror reflects the true form of the face, the Karana Anuyoga also reveals the true nature of its subject matter.

"Loka-aloka..." This verse is also found in the Kha and Ga manuscripts.

"Mati-jñāna is not Śruta-jñāna." This is found in the Ga manuscript.
