The reverse of is i.e. humility. Only when one knows to i.e. darkness can be destroyed. Ony when one learns to do 'Namaskar' i.e. reverence, ignorance can be destroyed and it is only when ignorance is got rid of, the Atman is enlightened and is credited with infinite knowledge, faith and power. It is only in this light of knowledge that Atman experiences infinite bliss.
Acharya Shri Kailassagarsuri Gyanmandir
As long as Indrabhuti was not prepared to be humble, he was devoid of knowledge and true glory. As soon as he learnt the lesson of Vinaya i.e. humility, he became respectable. He could achieve this, owing to simplicity and humility alone.
CHAPTER 4
Indrabhuti, at last reached the samavasarana. As mentioned earlier he had a doubt in his mind based on the Vedas, which he did not present it before anyone for clarification. His doubt was genuine for it arose in his mind, when he was contemplating over the scriptures. Only those questions having depth will lead to answers which will be effective and impressive. That was the reason for Indrabhuti to have renounced everything and become Lord Mahavira's disciple at once.
Some people have doubts that are either incomplete, incorrect or borrowed. They do not get satisfactory answers for their questions, because they themselves are not clear about their doubts as such. One cannot make out head or tail of the questions.
