Notes:—Pure joy is only attainable when one attains Moksha. Liberation from births and deaths can be secured by the acquisition of Spiritual Knowledge and by no other means. Spiritual Knowledge signifies the attainment of right belief, right knowledge and right conduct. So, if one has not advanced so far, in spite of his asceticism, deep study of scriptures, observance of outword rites and ceremonies, as to understand and realise unsullied nature of the Soul, he is open to the temptations of immense wealth, exalted positions aud other worldly enjoyments and thus while enjoying them he enters into fresh bondage of Karma tending to prolong his transmigratory cycle. It is therefore imperatively necessary to be free from the least tinge of love and hatred, for an aspirant after freedom from births and deaths. Renunciation though partial within the limited sphere of the house-holder's life though done with the desire of fruit, consequently in any case one should try to kill his desires as much as lies within his power and control. વિવેકજાગૃતિને અનુકૂલ ઉપદેશ . “ હે સજજન ! બીજાના ઉપર રાગ અને રેપ કરીને શા માટે આ માનવ ભવને ફગટ હારી જાય છે ? જે સુખની ઈચ્છા હોય તે મધ્યસ્થભાવનું અવલંબન કર. માધ્યસ્થવૃત્તિથી જે સુખ પ્રગટે છે, તે yu hugani ollonell zuŪall aid tell.
