discipline and modesty. In the Sthanang these aims are mentioned as protection of modesty, protection from inspiring repugnance, and protection from afflictions. In the Prashna Vyakaran this provision is for protection from air, sun and mosquito and other bites, and thereby facilitating the practice of discipline.” ___According to Acharyashri Atmaram ji M., clothing, utensils, blanket and broom are helpful in protecting discipline and modesty and so these are called ascetic equipment. However, if one gets attached to them they too become the cause of bondage.
२२ : सव्वत्थुवहिणा बुद्धा संरक्खणपरिग्गहे।
अवि अप्पणो वि देहम्मि नायरंति ममाइयं॥ __ जो तत्त्व के पूर्ण ज्ञाता मुनि हैं, वे षटजीव-कायों की रक्षा हेतु ग्रहण की गई उपधि के विषय में तो क्या अपने शरीर के विषय में भी किसी प्रकार का ममत्वभाव नहीं करते॥२२॥
22. The ascetics who have complete knowledge of the fundamentals do not nurture any feeling of attachment even for their body, what to say of the protective equipment. ६. रात्रि-भोजन-निषेध २३ : अहो निच्चं तवोकम्मं सव्वबुद्धेहिं वण्णियं।
जा य लज्जासमा वित्ती एगभत्तं च भोयणं॥ ___ अहो ! (आश्चर्य) सम्पूर्ण तत्त्वों के जानने वाले तीर्थंकर देवों ने साधुओं के लिए संयम के अनुकूल देह-रक्षण रूप वृत्ति में केवल एक बार ही भोजन करने का नित्य तपःकर्म के रूप में प्रतिपादन किया है।॥२३॥ 6. NEGATION OF EATING DURING THE NIGHT
23. Oh! The Tirthankars, the knowers of all fundamentals, have ordained, as an austerity, for the shramans just one meal a day being all the subsistence necessary for pursuance of discipline.
