556 / Go. Ma. Jivakanda
In the same way, a householder who is engaged in accumulating local vows and conduct, does not want the decline of his basic Shrayu, etc. If they arise due to their destruction, he tries to remove them in such a way that they do not hinder his virtues. Even if they do not go away, he tries in such a way that his virtues are not destroyed. Therefore, he cannot be blamed for suicide."
"Having taken only clothes as possessions, and leaving all other possessions, living in his own house or in a Jinalaya, the Shravak who, near the Guru, criticizes himself with mind, speech, and body, and renounces the three types of harm except for drinking, is called the fourth educational vow, Sallekhana, in the Upasakaadhyayana Sutra. 'This Sallekhana is capable of taking my Dharma with me,' such a feeling should be constantly felt [Pu. Si. U. Shlok 175]
The nature of the eleven types of Deshavira
The characteristic of Darshanik Deshavira is briefly as follows:
Samyagdarshan Shuddha
Sansara Sharira Bhoga Nirvinna
Panchaguru Charan-Sharan Darshanik Tattvapath Grihya || 137 || [Ratnakaranda Shravakachar]
- He who is pure by Samyagdarshan, and is detached from the world, body, and pleasures, has taken refuge in the feet of the Pancha-Gurus, i.e., is absorbed in the devotion of the five Supreme Beings, and is attracted to the right path, is a Darshanik Shravak. This is the nature of the first image, as said in relation to Dravyanuyoga. From the point of view of Charananuyoga, the nature of the first image is as follows: Generally, a Shravak who has Darshanpratima is a holder of eight basic virtues, a renouncer of seven vices, and a protector of Samyagdarshan.
Doubt - What are the eight basic virtues?
Solution - According to one opinion, the renunciation of the five fruits of Bada, Peepal, Pakar (Pilkhan), Umar (Gular), and Anjir (and other fruits like them), and the three Makars of Madya, Mans, and Madhu, is the eight basic virtues. According to another opinion, Madyatyaag 1, Mansatyaag 2, Mashrutyaag 3, Ratribhojan Tyaag 4, Panchphali Tyaag 5, Panchaparameshti's praise (Dev-Darshan) 6, Jivadaya 7)
