The collection of Gadasti also arises. That which is not subject to Pratipat, does not fall after it has come, is not subject to the suffering of Naraka, etc. It is also not subject to Apay. Thus, in the first four Dasti, there are two alternatives - either it is subject to Pratipat or it is not subject to Pratipat; and if it is subject to Pratipat, it is subject to Apay and Apay; if it is not subject to Pratipat, it is Nir-Apay, free from Apay, free from the bondage of Naraka, etc.
Here, someone may ask - why did Shrenik Maharaj, despite being the owner of Kshayik Samyaktv, despite being in the stable form of A-Pratipat Dasti, suffer the suffering of Naraka, etc.? The answer is that in the absence of the present Dasti, he had previously performed Karma of doubt-resolution, and due to its Vipak, such a Samyakdasti Mahatma experienced the suffering of Naraka, etc. And thus, even if someone with stable Dasti, etc., experiences Apay, it is not due to Pratipat, but due to the Karma bound in the past, despite being A-Pratipat. Moreover, the Apay that is said to be absent here is absent in the sense of being absent in the general sense, so it is true that it may be present in some exceptional cases. But in any case, Pratipat is not present in stable Dasti, etc.
Or, if we look at it in another way, such Apay-bandha for great souls like Shrenik, etc., is An-Apay, it is not Apay, it is not bondage. Because when a weight is placed on a ripe fruit, it does not affect the fruit, it does not ripen; similarly, even though A-Pratipat is like the ripening of the body, it does not affect the mind of such a great person, it is Nir-Apay, it does not cause any suffering. Such an Avadhuta remains "always absorbed" in the state of absorption! Therefore, from the point of view of Paramarth, such Samyakdasti, equal-minded yogis, are not touched by any Apay, they remain like a lotus in water. Because they are beyond all Apay, beyond all bondage, they are "seated in the high state of self-awareness, which is indifferent," so the suffering of Apay cannot reach them.
Sukhi saheli hai, akeli udaseenata,
Adhyatma ni janani, te udaseenata, - Shrimad Rajchandraji
Sukha dukhrup karam phal jaane,
Nishchay ek aanando re, - Shri Anandghanji
Thus, it is proven that the Dasti which is not subject to Pratipat, does not fall after it has come, remains A-Pratipat, is free from Apay, free from harm and bondage, free from suffering, there is no question about it. This will be clear from the figure.
