Kuśīla Pariññādhyayana
The one who is not fully mature in dharma - whose devotion to dharma is not completely ripe, he is mainly attached to mother, father, home, children, family, animals like elephants, horses, chariots, cows, buffaloes, and wealth and property. Renouncing all these, he properly accepts the vow of initiation and bears the burden of the five great vows on his shoulders. Being devoid of noble character and spiritual strength, he becomes greedy for taste, delicious food, and material pleasures, and runs towards those houses where he is likely to get such food. He is far from the spirit of asceticism - saintliness, as the Tirthankaras and Ganadhars have said. Here, the mention of the renunciation of parents implies that it is very difficult to leave them. Therefore, one should understand the renunciation of brothers, daughters, etc. along with the parents.
Explaining the subject matter in detail, it is said:
The one who runs towards sweet-smelling houses, being greedy for the belly, he preaches dharma there, and praises his own qualities to obtain food. He is not even one-hundredth part of the virtues of the Acharyas - he is not even one percent correct. The Tirthankaras have said so.
Leaving the poor, he runs towards the rich for food, being greedy for the belly. They say that he is not even one-hundredth part of the virtues of the Acharyas, who would speak for the sake of obtaining food.
Commentary: The one who 'runs towards' (dhāvati) the houses with delicious food, and going there, 'explains' (ākhyāti) the dharma, or entered for the purpose of begging, and explains whatever narrative is pleasing to him - what kind of person is he? He is 'greedy for the belly' (udara-anugṛddha), i.e., engrossed in filling the belly, intent on rubbing the belly. This means - the one who, for the sake of food or other means, goes to the houses of charitable faith and narrates stories, he is called a kuśīla (unvirtuous). And he is not even one-hundredth part of the virtues of the Acharyas or the noble ones, the statement of 'one-hundredth' is an indication, he is even less than one-thousandth part. The one who 'would speak' (ālapayed) the qualities of himself for the sake of food or other means, he too is not even one-thousandth part of the noble qualities, what to say of the one who himself proclaims his own praise.
