- The *Sri Sutra Kritanga Sutra* says: "Excessive pride and illusion, the wise one should know them. All the objects of desire, the Muni should seek liberation." ||36||
Commentary: - The wise Muni, knowing excessive pride, excessive ego, illusion, deceit, worldly pleasures, should renounce them and seek liberation.
Explanation: - The Sutra-maker, through the prohibition of the main objects of prohibition, speaks of the desire for liberation. Excessive pride, great pride, and the word "cha" (also) indicates its companion, anger, and illusion, and the word "cha" (also) indicates its effect, greed. The wise man, knowing all this, should renounce it through the knowledge of renunciation. Similarly, knowing all the "objects of desire" - wealth, taste, and beauty - as the cause of the world, he should renounce them. Renouncing them, the "Muni" (saint) should seek "liberation" - the destruction of all karma, or the specific region of space. Thus, the meaning of the end, "I say" is as before. ||36||
