## The Essence of the Fifth Insight (765)
There are many types of distinctions in the fifth insight, because there are three types of knowledge: (1) **Buddhi** (intellect), (2) **Jnana** (knowledge), and (3) **Asamaah** (non-attachment). These distinctions arise from the three types of knowledge.
**Buddhi** is knowledge that relies on the senses, **Jnana** is knowledge that is based on scriptures, and **Asamaah** is knowledge that is free from attachment and is accompanied by right conduct.
The fruit of **Buddhi** is **Samsara** (cycle of birth and death), the fruit of **Jnana** is **Parapara** (liberation through gradual progress), and the fruit of **Asamaah** is **Shighra Maaks** (swift liberation).
**Asamaah** is only possible for those who are **Bhavatit** (transcended the cycle of birth and death) and are **Mumukshu** (aspirants for liberation). Those who are **Bhavabhagavirkt** (completely detached from the world) and are **Mumukshu** are only guided by **Sham Parayan** (the path of peace).
Despite these distinctions, the fifth insight is like a single arrow on the ocean, one and the same. This is because the essence of the fifth insight is **Nirvana** (liberation), which is the same as **Sadashiv Parbrahma Siddhatma** (the supreme consciousness), even though it is known by different names.
Therefore, the essence of **Nirvana** is one and the same, and there is no dispute about its nature. This essence is **Sajn** (self-aware) and **Sthit** (stable), so how can there be distinctions in **Sajn**? And if there are no distinctions in **Sajn**, then how can there be distinctions in its devotees?
Then, how are there distinctions in the **Sarvagnani** (omniscient) **Deshna** (teachings)? The answer is:
(1) The **Deshna** is like a painting, and its variations are due to the **Shikshya** (disciple's) understanding.
(2) Or, the **Deshna** is one, but it appears different due to the **Shraata** (listener's) **Machinty** (thought) and **Punyasamarthya** (merit).
(3) Or, the **Deshna** is different due to **Desh** (place), **Kala** (time), etc., and it is transmitted by **Rishi** (sages). The essence of the **Rishi Deshna** is also **Sarvagnani** (omniscient).
Therefore, it is not appropriate to oppose or contradict the **Sarvagnani** without understanding their perspective. It is not appropriate to engage in dry arguments and debates about **Ateeindriya** (supernatural) subjects like **Sarvagnani** with **Chhadmastha** (pretenders).
For a **Mumukshu**, it is not appropriate to grasp **Sarvatra** (everything) with **Ayuka** (attachment). So, what is the point of grasping **Tuchch** (trivial) and **Shushk** (dry) **Kutarak** (arguments)?
Therefore, a **Mumukshu** should follow the teachings of these great beings:
(1) Avoid even **Sukhsma Parpiden** (subtle harm).
(2) Always strive for **Papakar** (good deeds).
(3) Worship **Gurudev** (spiritual teacher), **Dwij** (Brahmin), **Yati** (ascetic), etc., appropriately.
(4) Be compassionate towards **Papi Jiwa** (sinful beings).
The essence is that those who are free from the poison of **Aagrah** (attachment) will attain the nectar of **Samyaktva** (right conduct).
## The Essence of the Fifth Insight
In the fifth insight, (1) **Dan** (charity) is like **Ratna Prabha** (jewel light), **Nitya** (eternal) and **Apratipati** (unbreakable). (2) The fifth **Yaganga** (limb of sacrifice), **Pratyahar** (withdrawal of senses), is attained. (3) The fifth **Chitt Dosh** (mental flaw), **Bhrant** (delusion), is eliminated. (4) The fifth **Gun** (quality), **Sukhsma Bel** (subtle strength), is acquired.
Therefore, through the distinction of **Granthi** (knots), the experience of **Shuddhatma** (pure soul) is attained, which is the **Vedya** (object of knowledge) and **Svedya** (subject of knowledge). This removes **Mahatmas** (great darkness) and reveals the dawn of **Bhed Jnana** (knowledge of distinctions). It leads to the understanding of **Swapar Vastu** (self and other), and all external activities appear like **Dhuligruhakrida** (playing in a dust house), **Mrugjal** (mirage), **Swapna** (dream), etc., which are **Asar** (unreal) and **Asthira** (unstable). All external feelings appear like **Mrugjal** and **Swapna**, and only **Atmayati** (self-realization) is considered **Praman** (proof), while everything else is considered **Upplav** (illusion).
