The disciple becomes proficient in knowledge by doing auspicious things at the beginning, including the five auspicious things, the meaning, etc., the knowledge comes without obstacles by doing auspicious things in the middle, and the fruit of knowledge is obtained by doing auspicious things at the end. ||6||
Further, the secondary auspicious things are called:
Meaning - Siddhartha, Purnakumbha, Vandanamaala, Shwetachatra, Shwetavarna, Aadarasha or Darpan, Naath (King), Kanya and Jayapana. ||7||
Those who have achieved the ultimate goal through vows, rules, restraint, etc., and whose name is Siddha, are therefore Siddhartha auspicious. ||8||
Those who are full of all desires and only knowledge, such Arhants are Purnakumbha auspicious in this world. ||9||
Bharat Chakra created the Vandanamaala, when someone exits or enters through a door, they become worthy of being worshipped by the twenty-four Tirthankaras, therefore Vandanamaala is called auspicious. ||10||
For the beings of the world, Arhant Bhagwan is the easy doer, they are like protectors, therefore they are called Shwetachatra. ||11||
Those Arhants who have white color, white meditation, and whose four non-virtuous karmas remain, such Arhants are called Shwetavarna auspicious. ||12||
Just as the reflection appears in the mirror, similarly, the world and the non-world are seen in the only knowledge of the Jineendras, therefore Aadarasha is auspicious. ||13||
Just as the Vitaraga Sarvagya Jineendra is auspicious, similarly, the king and the child girl in the world should also be considered auspicious. ||14||
Those who have conquered the enemies of karma and attained liberation - conquering the four armies of enemies, which are the four types of karma, is called Jayarupa auspicious. ||15||
Or, auspiciousness is of two types - one is bound auspiciousness, the other is unbound auspiciousness. The auspiciousness that is done by the same author of the text is bound auspiciousness, such as 'Mokshamargasya Netaram' etc. The auspiciousness that is brought from another text and used for salutation is unbound auspiciousness, such as "Jagattrayanaathay" etc.
In this regard, some disciple raises this prior argument and argues that - why do the authors of the scriptures praise the qualities of the Supreme Being for auspiciousness at the beginning of the scriptures? One should only say what is being started, there is no need for auspiciousness. It should also not be said that auspiciousness in the form of salutation brings merit, and merit makes the work free from obstacles, because saying so leads to contradiction. Sometimes, obstacles are seen while doing salutation, donation, worship, etc., and sometimes, work is seen to be free from obstacles even without donation, worship, and salutation? The Acharya solves this by saying - O disciple! Your saying this is not appropriate. In the past, the Acharyas started the work only after saluting the Ishtadevata first.
