(Aph.) Non-abstinence from (acts of) injury, and the like is non-restraint. (XIV) (Gloss) Non-abstinence from injury, falsehod, stealing, non-celibacy and possession is called non-restraint. In other words, it consists in) the non-renunciation of sinful activities. (Note) This non-restraint prevails upto the fifth state (inclusive) of the soul's development (jīvasthāna). The fifth state, although technically known as samyamasamyama, is virtually a state of asamyama. 88. apfarfa: 89#: 1 हिंसाविरतिः संयमः । 15. tad-viratiḥ saṁyamah. hiṁsāder viratiḥ samyamaḥ. (Aph.) Abstinence from the same is restraint. (XV) (Gloss) Abstinence from (acts of) injury and the like is restraint. (Note) This restraint is achieved at the sixth state and continues onwards. Our discussion on the concept of compassion proper terminates here. Another important concept concerned with charity is explained in the next sütra. १६. स्वपरोपकारार्थ वितरणं वानम् । स्वस्य परस्य चोपकारार्थं स्वकीयवस्तुनो वितरणं दानम् । 16. sva-paropakārārthaṁ vitaraṇam dānam. svasya parasya copakārārtham svakiya-vastuno vitaraṇam dānam. (Aph.) Charity consists in offering food, drink, etc., for the benefit of one's own self as well as others. (XVI) (Gloss) Offering of one's own articles for the benefit of one's own self and others is charity. (Note) Charity may be pure as well as impure. 89. fratgaca fatay I येन स्वस्य परस्य वा संयम उपचयं याति तन्निरवद्यदानम्--धर्मदानमिति । तच्च संयमिने यथोचितान्नपानादेवितरणम्-संयतिदानम्, Jain Education International For Personal & Private Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
