**Mokshamārga Prapancha Sūchika Chūlikā Kimpi** ||154||
Thus, by stating the nature of the soul, and by stating the nature of the soul's conduct, the path to liberation is explained. In the first instance, the verses are sung.
**Pīthikā** - Further, the third great authority is on the special explanation of the main causes of liberation, namely, the certainty and practice of the path to liberation, in the form of a Chūlikā. It contains twenty verses beginning with "Jīvasahāo ṇāṇam". Among these twenty verses, the nature of pure soul, the nature of pure knowledge, and the nature of pure vision are explained. It is said that the nature of the soul is stable conduct, and that is the path to liberation. Thus, in the first instance, the sūtra "Jīvasahāo ṇāṇam" etc. is stated. Then, the sūtra "Jīvasahāo ṇiyado" etc. is stated, saying that the pure soul's own time is dependent on the pure soul, and the false time is dependent on the false nature and the results of passion, etc. Then, there are two verses beginning with "Jo paradavvehi", etc., which mainly describe the special nature of the pure soul's own time, which is different from the false time, which is different from the pure soul's own time, which is in the form of support, etc. Then, there are two verses beginning with "Jo savvasanga", etc., which mainly explain the special nature of the pure soul's own time, which is in the form of self-awareness, free from the alternatives of passion, etc. Then, in the fifth instance, there is one sūtra beginning with "Dhammādī saddahaṇam", etc., which mainly describes the path to liberation, which is the practice of the six substances, etc., as described by the omniscient, free from passion, in the form of right faith, right knowledge, and the five great vows, etc. Then, there are two verses beginning with "Ničchayaṇayeṇa", etc., which describe the path to liberation, which is the certainty of the three jewels of liberation, which are to be achieved by the three jewels of practice. Then, the sūtra "Jeṇa vijāṇa", etc., is stated, which mainly explains that the feeling that only the transcendental joy arising from the contemplation of the pure soul is worth receiving is right vision. Then, in the eighth instance, the sūtra "Dansaṇṇāṇacarittāṇi", etc., is stated, which mainly explains that liberation is achieved through the path of the three jewels of certainty, and the bondage of merit is achieved through the path of the three jewels of practice. Then, there are five verses beginning with "Aṇṇāṇādō ṇāṇī", etc., which explain that one who, even though capable of staying in the restraint called Samāyika, which is the state of non-dualistic false absorption, abandons it and practices passionate conduct in solitude, considers it to be the cause of liberation, is called a gross false time. And one who, desiring to stay in the restraint called Samāyika, which is the state of absorption, but not having the necessary materials, takes refuge in good use to avoid evil, is called a subtle false time. Then, there is the main explanation that, although the knowledge of the Agamas, which describe the ancient ones like the Tirthankaras, and the nine substances like the soul, etc., and devotion to it, do not lead to liberation because of the result of merit-hearing in that time, yet liberation is achieved by obtaining the materials for the result of pure use, free from attachment, in due course, based on it.
