It looks like a broom. Touching each limb, you feel like an elephant, it is exactly as expected of that limb, but from above, you don't get the whole elephant! The whole body together makes the elephant. Therefore, to understand its complete form, one must consider it in time. You must abandon the insistence of "J'ekantavad". Understand this, now you must stop the argument! Stop it! Thus, the wise-looking, seeing man explained, so the debaters cooled down, and abandoning the false discussion, they understood and became calm.
This example reveals that the "J" ekantvadi who says "this is J" is insistent, but the sarva samanyavakari anekantavadi is always and everywhere non-insistent. There is a miraculous saying of Shrimad Rajchandraji, which in a few but great words, completely refutes all ekantvadis:
"Ekantvad is the sign of incomplete knowledge, debaters! I show you for your sake. Just as novice poets use the word "J" to suppress flaws in poetry, so you too say "J" meaning certainty, with novice knowledge. Mahaveer never said so; that is his unique miracle."
-Shrimad Rajchandra, Patrank 6 (20)

"न युज्यते प्रतिक्षेपः सामान्यस्यापि तत्सताम् । आर्यापवादस्तु पुनजिंहाछेदाधिको मतः ॥ १४१ ॥"
"Pratikshep is not appropriate even for the common people, let alone the saints; the Aryan slander is considered more than cutting the tongue." 141
Meaning- Even for common people, pratikshep is not appropriate. Therefore, slander against the Aryan saints is considered more than cutting the tongue.
-Not appropriate, pratikshep is in the form of refutation. The meaning is that even common people, common men, should not curse the saints, the munis, even if they are angry, because it is a sin against all. What? So- it is considered more than cutting the tongue (jihava cheda)- with the intention of such an act.
