________________ पूर्वपुण्यवशतोऽखिलं हि तल्लभ्यते यदि सुकर्मपाकतः । दुर्लभस्तदपि कल्पवृक्षवयोग्यसंयमिगुरोः समागमः ॥८६॥ Meaning :- Suppose one gets through the fruition of his good Karmas and due to the religious merit hoarded up in past births all the facilities described before, still, however, they are of no practical utility as long as one does not come into contact with a selfless preceptor who is well stabilizer in self-restraint. Is an association with suuch a bonafide saviour easily obtainable ? No, .never. It is obtainable with very great difficulty like the wish-begetting tree. It cannot be had without high merit and exceeding luck. (86) 86 Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
