भावलिंगरता ये स्युः सर्वसारविदो हि ते । लिंगस्था वा गृहस्था वा सिध्यन्ति धूतकल्मषाः ॥१८२॥
भावार्थ : जो भावलिंग में रहते हैं, वे सर्वसार के ज्ञाता हैं, इसलिए वे साधुवेष में हों, या गृहस्थ-वेष में हों, फिर भी वे पाप का क्षय करके सिद्धिपद प्राप्त करते हैं ॥१८२॥ भावलिंगं हि मोक्षांगं द्रव्यलिंगमकारणम् । द्रव्यं नात्यन्तिकं यस्मान्नाप्येकान्तिकमिष्यते ॥१८३॥
भावार्थ : भावलिंग ही मोक्ष का अंग (कारण) है, द्रव्यलिंग मोक्ष का कारण नहीं है; क्योंकि द्रव्य आत्यन्तिक अभीष्ट नहीं है, और न ही ऐकान्तिक अभीष्ट है ॥१८३॥ यथाजातदशालिंगमर्थादव्यभिचारि चेत् । विपक्षबाधकाभावात्तधेतुत्वे तु का प्रमा ? ॥१८४॥
भावार्थ : जिस प्रकार से जन्म हुआ, वैसी दशारूप वेष मोक्षरूपी अर्थ से अव्यभिचारी है, यदि ऐसा कहते हों तो विपक्षबाधक का अभाव होने से मृग आदि भी यथाजात (नग्न) दशा में रहते हैं, उनका भी मोक्ष होने लगेगा और सभी नग्नों का यदि मोक्ष इष्ट नहीं है, तो उस नग्नत्व को मोक्ष का कारण कहने में क्या प्रमाण है? ॥१८४॥ वस्त्रादिधारेणच्छा चेद् बाधिका तस्य तां विना । धृतस्य किमवस्थाने करादेरिव बाधकम् ॥१८५॥

## Translation:

**Verse 182:**

Those who dwell in the **Bhavalinga** are knowers of the essence of all things. Therefore, whether they are in the garb of a **Sadhu** or a householder, they attain the state of **Siddhi** by destroying their karmas.

**Meaning:** Those who are in the **Bhavalinga** are enlightened and understand the true nature of reality. Their state of being, whether they are renunciates or householders, is a means to attain liberation.

**Verse 183:**

The **Bhavalinga** is the means to liberation, while the **Dravyalinga** is not. This is because the **Dravyalinga** is not the ultimate goal, nor is it the only means to liberation.

**Meaning:** The **Bhavalinga**, which is the state of being free from attachment and identification with the body, is the path to liberation. The **Dravyalinga**, which is the physical body, is not the cause of liberation.

**Verse 184:**

If one claims that the ten types of garments worn at birth are inseparable from the goal of liberation, then what is the proof for this claim? In the absence of any opposing evidence, even animals like deer, who are born naked, would also attain liberation. If the nakedness of all beings is not desirable for liberation, then what is the evidence for claiming that nakedness is the cause of liberation?

**Meaning:** The argument that the ten types of garments worn at birth are essential for liberation is flawed. If this were true, then animals who are born naked would also attain liberation. This is absurd, as nakedness is not a requirement for liberation.

**Verse 185:**

If one claims that wearing clothes is an obstacle to liberation, then what is the purpose of wearing clothes? Just as the hand is an obstacle to the act of eating, so too is clothing an obstacle to liberation.

**Meaning:** The argument that wearing clothes is an obstacle to liberation is illogical. If this were true, then there would be no reason to wear clothes at all.
