CANDRAVEDHYAKA PRAKĪRŅAKA : 45
106.
Those persons, who having received the ordainment (i.e. monkhood) practice it with three yogas ie. By body, mind and speech) and do not give it up, do not have to repent later just as a sailor with an undamaged ship at his command.
107.
To get human birth is not easy. After getting the human birth, too, it is difficult to gain the right knowledge and even after gaining the right knowledge, it is difficult to gain ordainment in monkhood.
108.
After gaining ordainment as a monk, too, it is difficult to learn the right knowledge of scriptures and after gaining the scriptural knowledge, again, it is difficult to gain purity of conduct.
109. Some persons praise right-belief, some the purity of
conduct and, likewise, some praise the right knowledge.
110.
When both, the right-belief and the right conduct, are achieved at the same time, what should the wise accept?
