Ditthehim nivveyam gaccheija–to be detached from the good and bad, or their evident forms-sound, form, taste, smell and touch. One should not have liking for good and hatred for bad.
Lokaishana–the desire of affiliation with pleasant experiences and dissociation from the unpleasant. The attitude of following what masses do is lokaishana or worldly pursuits. Acharya Shri Atmaram ji M. has used lokaishana to define a sage--One who is free of worldly desires (lokaishana) and any other attachment, has no scope of any other sinful indulgences.
