Bhagavān Mahāvira 59. Discipline is the means of achieving liberation
(Sila-pāhuda, 20) 60. Even the noble becomes mean in the company of the
wicked, as precious necklace on the neck of a dead body.
(Bhagavati Ārādhanā, 245) 61. The ignoramous is always benighted. The enlightened is always wide awake.
(Ācāränga, 3/1) 62. The five senses of the awakened always remain inactive.
The five senses of the unawakened always remain active. By means of the active five one acquires bondage while by means of the inactive five the bondage is severed.
(Isibhāsiyaṁ, 29/2) 63. Just as every body keeps away from a burning fire, so do the evils remain away from an enlightened person.
(Isibhāsiyaṁ, 35/23) 64. Keep yourself always awake. One who keeps awake in
creases his wisdom. He who falls asleep is wretched. Blessed is he who keeps awake.
(Brhatkalpa-bhäsya, 3382) 65. He who lies idle like a python simply wastes the ambro
sia of wisdom. With the loss of his wisdom, he is no better than a bull.
(Brhaikalpa-bhāşya, 3387) 66. The yogin who is indifferent to worldly affairs remains
spiritually alret to his own duty, namely, his duty towards his soul. On the other hand, one who indulges in worldly affairs is not dutiful to his soul,
(Mokşa-pāhuda, 31) 67. Birth is attended by death, youth by decay and fortune
by misfortune. Thus everything in this world is momentary.
(Kartikeyānuprekṣā, 5)
