activity, he experiences touch of a variety of things experiencing hot, $cold, light, heavy, rough, soft, dry and smooth touch. When he touches 4
such likeable things, if he gets carelessly attached to them he gets i trapped in the web of inner Parigraha and allows his soul to fall into the deep gorge of disgrace. That is the reason the author has, in light of this attitude of Sparshanendriya Samvar (blocking of the inflow of karmas through indulgence of the sense organ of touch), listed some selected pleasant touches and advised to remain restrained and steadfast into equanimity on touching them.
In the same way when coming across repulsive touch if he instantly 45 gets angry, this pushes him into the grip of inner covetousness and he is overpowered by aversion. That is the reason the author has, listed some selected unpleasant touches and advised the aspirant to control himself and avoid getting angry.
This way a monk should follow the ascetic conduct by perfecting Samvar of all five senses and three kinds of restraint-that of mind, speech and body. This has been summed up lucidly in the 32nd chapter 45 of Uttaradhyayan Sutra as-The wise who avoids attachment and aversion when experiencing attractive and repulsive sound, form, taste, smell and touch, he alone is called the pacifier of senses, detached and non-covetous.
Here an important fact should be kept in mind; attachment and aversion are inner Parigraha and thus the basic covetousness. That is the reason all these aforesaid attitudes have been defined on that basis.
