The five **bhavanas** (mental attitudes) of the second **satya-vrata** (truthful vow) are: abandoning anger, greed, fear, and laughter, and speaking according to the scriptures. ||162||
The five **bhavanas** of the third **achaurya-vrata** (non-stealing vow) are: taking limited food, taking food suitable for austerity, taking food when requested by a devotee, not taking food contrary to the proper method, and being content with the food and drink received. ||163||
The five **bhavanas** of the fourth **brahmacharaya-vrata** (celibacy vow) are: abandoning the stories of women, abandoning the sight of their beautiful limbs, abandoning association with them, abandoning the remembrance of past pleasures, and abandoning strong flavors. ||164||
The five **bhavanas** of the fifth **aparigraha-vrata** (non-attachment vow) are: abandoning attachment to the five senses, which are the objects of the five senses, both with and without consciousness, both internal and external. ||165||
The four **uttar bhavanas** (higher mental attitudes) of the above vows are: maintaining patience, being forgiving, constantly striving to focus on meditation, and not deviating from the path when faced with temptations. ||166||
Lord Rishabhadeva, the protector of all beings, observed these vows, purified by these **bhavanas**, to destroy his sins. ||167||
Similarly, other wise people should also abandon laziness and observe the five great vows, including non-violence, with the five **samitis** (principles of conduct) and three **guptis** (secrets), along with eighty-four lakh **uttar gunas** (higher qualities). ||168||
Similarly, the **munis** (ascetics) should abandon all three **shalyas** (obstacles) mentioned in Jain scriptures, namely **maya** (illusion), **mithyatva** (falsehood), and **nidana** (cause), and live a life free from obstacles. ||169||
This is the **sthavira kalpa** (conduct of an elder), which should also be applied in the **jina kalpa** (conduct of a Jina). According to the scriptures, one should observe the **sthavira kalpa** and then the **jina kalpa**.
Meaning: Observing the above vows, staying with the **munis**, giving teachings, initiating new disciples, etc., is called **sthavira kalpa**, and observing the vows while living alone, constantly engaged in self-reflection, is called **jina kalpa**.
