Vol. II/No. 3. Eternal Wisdom 15 SUBHASHITA (सुभाषित) (Various quotations aiding the Eternal Wisdom). ON THE SENSES (इन्द्रिय) AND THEIR OBJECTS (विषय). सांत्या क्रोधो मृदुत्वेन Kshantya Krodho Mrudutwena मानो मायाजवेन च। Mano Mayarjawena Cha, लोभश्चानीहया जेयाः Lobhash-chanihaya Jeyaha कषाया इति संग्रहः // 4-23 // Kashaya Iti Sangrahaha. 4-23. 4.23. The following is the collection of the ways to win over the Kashayas ( कषाय) : by forgiveness (क्षमा), anger (क्रोध) is won over; by humility (मृदुता) pride (मान) is won over; by straight-forward open-hearted simplicity ( 37isfa), deceit (माया) is won over; and by desirelessness ( अनिच्छा• contentment), greed is won over. विनोंद्रियजयं नैव कषायान् जेतुमीश्वरः। हन्यते हैमनं जाड्यं न विना ज्वलितानलम् // 4-24 // Winendriya-jayam Naiwa Kashayan Jetumishwaraha, Hanyate Haimanam Jadyam Na Wina Jwalitanalam. 4-24. 4.24. Just as it is not possible to disperse the bitter cold of winter without the burning fire; similarly, without victory (complete control) over the senses (इन्द्रिय), man is powerlessin winning over the Kashayas (कषाय). (The source of the above two verses is the Yoga Shastra Shri Hemchandracharya).
