प्रथम गुणस्थान में रहने वाले विकासमामो ऐसे अनेक आत्म होते हैं, जो रागद्वेष के तीव्रतम वेग को थोड़ा सा दबाये हुए सो हैं, पर मोह को प्रधान शक्ति को अर्थात् दर्शनमोह को शिथिल किये हुए नहीं होते। इसलिये वे यद्यपि अध्यात्मिक लक्ष्य के सर्वथा अनुकूलगामी नहीं होते तो भी उनका बोध व चरित्र अन्य अविकfar आत्माओं की अपेक्षा अच्छा ही होता है । यद्यपि ऐसे आरमाओं की आध्यात्मिक दृष्टि सर्वथा आत्मोन्मुख न होने के कारण वस्तुतः मिया या हो कहलाती है, तथापि वह सष्टि के समीप ले जाने वाली होने के कारण उपादेय मानी गई है* ।
बोध, वीर्य व चारित्र के तरन्तम भाव की अपेक्षा से उस असत् दृष्टि के चार भेद करके मिथ्या दृष्टि गुणस्थान की अन्तिम अवस्था
दृष्टान्तोपनयश्चात्र जना जीवा भवोऽयी ।
पत्याः कर्मस्थितिर्ग्रन्थि देशस्तित्वह भयास्पदम् ॥ ९२२ ॥
रागद्वेषी तस्करी द्वौ तद्भीतो बतिस्तु सः ।
ग्रन्थि प्राप्यानि दुर्भावा, यो जेष्ठस्थितिबन्धकः ।। ६२३ ।। भोररुद्धस्तु स यस्ताद रागादिबाधितः । ग्रन्थि भिनत्ति यो नैव न चापि वनने ततः ।। ६२४ ।। सत्वमीष्टपुरं प्राप्तो योऽपूर्वकरणाद् द्वतुम् । रागद्वेषायपाकृत्य सम्यग्दर्शन माप्तवान् ॥ ६२५ ।।

## Chapter 16

There are many souls residing in the first Gunasthan (stage of spiritual development) who have slightly suppressed the intense velocity of attachment and aversion, but they have not weakened the dominant power of delusion, specifically, the delusion of perception. Therefore, although they are not entirely aligned with the spiritual goal, their understanding and character are still better than other undeveloped souls. Although the spiritual vision of such souls is not entirely self-oriented and is actually considered Mithya (false) or Avyakt (unmanifest), it is considered useful because it brings them closer to the right path.

In comparison to the most intense states of understanding, energy, and character, this false vision is categorized into four types, marking the final stage of the Mithya Drishti Gunasthan.

**Illustrative Explanation:**

> The life of a being is like a traveler.
> The state of karma is the knot, the place of bondage is the fearsome forest.
> Attachment and aversion are the thieves, fear is the guard.
> Reaching the knot, they experience misfortune, which binds them to the highest state.
> The one who is obstructed by attachment, aversion, and other hindrances is like a traveler trapped in the forest.
> The one who does not break the knot and does not escape the forest is lost.
> The one who reaches the desired city of liberation through previous efforts is like a traveler who has escaped the forest.
> By abandoning attachment and aversion, he has attained right vision.

**From Lokaprakash Sangraha 3:**

> The one who has attained the state of dullness in the middle is like a friend who has also seen the path.
> He guides others towards liberation through his own understanding.

**Sri Yash Vijayji's Yogavatar Dwatrimsha:**
