**On Sight:** The Muni-Ravani, by the application of Dharma-Sannyasa, is accomplished.
(603) Just as the great soul becomes accomplished by the application of gems, so too does this great Muni become accomplished by the application of Dharma-Sannyasa. 181
Meaning - Just as the great soul becomes accomplished by the application of gems, so too does this great Muni become accomplished by the application of Dharma-Sannyasa.
Discussion - "By that application, the Muni obtains the supreme knowledge." - Sakza. 8, 2,
Just as the great soul-gem merchant becomes accomplished by the application of gems, so too does this Muni, with pure sight, become accomplished by the application of Dharma-Sannyasa.
The gem merchant, who knows how to examine gems, is considered accomplished when he conducts business with gems with pure sight. Because, no matter how much knowledge one has about examining gems, it is not considered meaningful or accomplished until the gem merchant has put it into practice in business-exchange. But the knowledge of examining gems is essential for the purpose of buying and selling gems, and only when this knowledge is applied in business and used to gain desired benefits, is it considered accomplished, only then is it considered done.
Similarly, this Muni, with pure sight, becomes accomplished by the application of Dharma-Sannyasa, that is, by the specific practice of pure sight, by the business of Dharma, because no matter how much knowledge one has about Dharma-Sannyasa, no matter how much training one has received in Dharma-Sannyasa, it is not considered meaningful for the sake of the ultimate goal until it is put into practice in a decisive and pure way. But the training in knowledge, vision, and character, which was essential for the attainment of the rightness of Dharma-Sannyasa, is now being put into practice in a practical way, and the ultimate benefit of the self is being derived from it. Therefore, here, in this sight, the application of Dharma-Sannyasa (Practice) is accomplished. That is, here, the great Muni, who is like a gem merchant, becomes accomplished by the application of Dharma-Sannyasa, which is like the gem trade, and obtains the desired benefit of the self. Here, he crosses over, here his work of self-realization is done.
