He abandons from afar the unrighteous acts such as *gadashti* (sexual misconduct), *vyabhichar* (adultery), and *mamtav* (attachment) leading to the acquisition of another's property, and by severing the *parbhaav-vibhaav* (external influence and its effect), he lifts his ownership from above, establishes himself in his own possessions, and continuously strives to follow the *sanyayniti* (ethics of renunciation) - the true authenticity. Just as a *kulputra* (son of a noble family) enhances the reputation of his ancestors, illuminates his family, and becomes well-established in society, similarly, a *kulgi* (Jain monk) also enhances the reputation of his *bikul* (lineage), illuminates his family, and attains a place in the *yogi* (spiritual) community, becoming well-established in his form, "saving forty-one generations." Therefore, the name "Kulgi" aptly suits him, just like *kulvadhu* (daughter-in-law) and *kulputra* (son of a noble family).
However, those who are born into the lineage of the *Jinadi* (Jain) supreme beings, but do not follow their religion with devotion, or those who follow it only in name, even if their father calls them "Jain" etc., are merely nominal Jains, *gotragi* (belonging to a lineage), but not *kulgi* (true Jain). Similarly, those who are born into the lineage of Buddha, but do not follow his religion with devotion, even if their father calls them "Buddhist," are also merely nominal Buddhists, not *kul-yogi* (true Buddhist). Likewise, it should be understood for others who are called Brahmins, Vaishnavas, etc., but do not possess the characteristics of true Brahmins or Vaishnavas. Those who do not possess the Jain qualities of conquering the enemies like *raag-dvesh* (attachment and aversion), or the wisdom of true *buddhi* (understanding), or the purity of *vaishnava* (devotee of Vishnu), or the true knowledge of *brahma* (ultimate reality) of a Brahmin, even if they are born as Jains, Buddhists, Vaishnavas, Brahmins, or anything else, are not true Jains, Buddhists, Vaishnavas, or Brahmins in their heart and soul. They cannot be called *kulgi* (true Jain) either. The point is that those who do not follow the true path of *yog* (spiritual practice) - the path of *maekshamaag* (non-violence) - are not *kulgi* (true Jain) in any community or any school of thought.
Often, a human soul belongs to some religion or school of thought, and therefore believes that it should act according to that religion or school of thought. But this is not called *mumuksta* (desire for liberation). *Mumuksta* is to strive for liberation alone, free from all kinds of worldly attachments. And intense *mumuksta* is to constantly strive on the path of liberation with unwavering love.
- Shrimad Rajchandra, Patrak 216 (254)
Or it can be called *yog* (spiritual practice) that is merely for physical development, like the exercises practiced by the Vaishnavas. - Shri Narsinh Mehta
