51. After doing so, he must serially ponder over them. As long as the Guru does not complete the Kāyotsarga, he should make his respiration subtle and engage himself in Dharmya -Sukla Dhyāna.
52 Pratikramaņa (coming back to the original state) is of five kinds, namely, relating to day, night, fortnight, four months and a year. Each has three sub-divisions.
(1) To engage in Kāyotsarga after completing Sāmāyika. (2) To engage in Sāmāyika after completing Kāyotsarga
(3) To engage in Kāyotsarga again after completing sāmāyika. 53. The disciple asked --My Lord; During the first Kāyotsarga, the Sāmāyika has been observed and as such why should one do second Sāmāyika in Pratikramaņa and the third Sāmāyika in the last Kāyotsarga ?
54. Ācārya replied—Vatsa ! the monk engrossed in the equanimity of mind completes his Kāyotsarga and accepts the punishment given by the Guru for the transgressions committed during the day or night. Thus engaged in equanimity, he observes the third Sāmāyika in course of Käyotsarga
55. Repetition is not considered a fault in the case of study, meditation, penance, medicine, instruction, order and songs of praise of the saints.
56. One engaged in Abhibhava Kāyotsarga does not completely stop one's respiration and as such why should one stop one's respiration while engaged in Cheștā Kāyotsarga; The cessation of respiration leads to death. Hence while engaged in Kāyotsarga, one should respirate slowly with care.
57. Kāyotsarga relating to day, night, fortnight, four months and a year are fixed as far as the number of respirations is concerned during their observance. The remaining Kāyotsargas are not fixed because the number of respiration differs with the kind of activity for which the Kāyotsarga is observed.
58. The number of respirations during the observance of Kāyotsarga is as follows: (1) Evening
100 (2) Morning
50 (3) Fortnight
300 (4) Four months 500 (5) Year
1008
