The Daśavaikālika expects the calmness and quietness of mind in a monk because it is a natural culmination of the Jinaśāsana. (311427 7 "TOUT Heali furgui - Daśavaikālika 8.25) The Uttarādhyayana advises a monk to remain unperturbed in any type of adversity because he has heard the order (or preaching) of the Jinas (Uttarādhyayana 2.6). The same text mentions that king Sanjaya abadoned the kingdom and became a member of the realm of the Jinas (Uttarādhyayana 18.19). The word Jinaśāsana is repeatedly used in the 18th chapter of the Uttarādhyayana.
It is very curious to note down the traditional slogan of all the Jainas despite of sects and subsects viz. जैनं जयति शासनम् । [ii] Adhikaraṇa :
Kautilya uses the word ‘adhikaraṇa' for the chapters in his Arthaśāstra. There are 15 adhikaraṇas and 150 adhyāyas in the book. Seven different meanings are noted of the word ‘adhikaraṇa' in common Sanskrit dictionaries. The word is normally used in the judicial matter or in the grammar.
Tattvārthasūtra, the Jaina phylosophical text uses the word “adhikaraṇa' in different sense. It says -
3Tfc Tuj salsiat: (Tattvārtha 6.8) “The instrument of long-term karmic-flow are both - sencient and non-sencient entities.”
The later writers simply say that there are 108 varieties of the karmic bondage, viz. hiṁsā (violence). The commentator of Mūlācāra has located two different meanings of 'adhikaraṇa' and says that, “The adhikaranas (chapters) of Arthaśāstra are in true sense the instruments of karmic-bondage due to violence involved in
it.'
