अध्याय-१
विशुद्ध्यप्रतिपाताभ्यां तद्विशेषः ॥२४॥
[विशुद्धयप्रतिपाताभ्यां ] परिणामों की विशुद्धि और अप्रतिपात अर्थात् केवलज्ञान होने से पूर्व न छूटना [ तद्विशेषः ] इन दो बातों से ऋजुमति और विपुलमति ज्ञान में विशेषता (अन्तर) है।
The differences between the two are due to purity (viśuddhi) and infallibility (apratipāta).
The state of the soul on destruction-cum-subsidence (kşayopaśama) of the karmic veil covering telepathy is purity. 'Pratipāta' is fall. Its opposite is infallibility (apratipāta). The ascetic, whose karmic veil has only subsided (upaśāntakaṣāya) but has not been destroyed, sometimes falls from his spiritual height in the presence of powerful conduct-deluding (cāritramohanīya) karmas. But such a fall does not occur in case of the ascetic whose conduct-deluding (căritramohaniya) karmas have been completely destroyed (kṣīņakaṣāya). And the excellence of telepathy depends upon purity - viếuddhi - and absence of fall - apratipāta. First, with regard to purity. Vipulamati is purer than rjumati with regard to the object (dravya), space (kşetra), time (kāla) and nature or condition (bhāva). How? The infinitesimal part of karmic matter is ascertained by perfect clairvoyance (sarvāvadhijñāna); its infinitesimal part is the province of rjumati. And the infinitesimal part of what is known to rjumati is within the reach of vipulamati. Thus the latter knows the infinitesimal part of infinitesimal. Its purity with regard to object (dravya), space (kşetra), time (kāla) has thus been mentioned. Purity in regard to nature or condition (bhāva) must also be understood from the fact that still subtler or minute forms of matter come within the range of vipulamati than rjumati as it is accompanied by greater destruction-cum-subsidence (kşayopaśama) of karmas. Vipulamati is superior to rjumati also owing to the absence of downfall or deterioration as it is possessed by
