________________ Gunasen had ridiculed Agnisharma over and over again. He had missed out on performing his 'parana' thrice. However, Karmasatta was telling Agnisharma, "Gunasen's file should be buried in some drawer of some cupboard for the time being. Just now, I have only your file in my hand and it is filled with terrible rage, a knot of violent enmity, a 'niyanu' to kill Gunasen life after life. I can read only such things which are grave crimes. You will have to bear frightful afflictions, for infinite times in hell as a punishment for your grievous crimes. I will read and think about what Gunasen has done, when I take up his file." When a businessman has to draw up his 'profit and loss' account, he checks only his own books. Does he see the profit or loss his neighbour has incurred? Or does he see what a certain businessman's books reveal? What would a patient, who has been hospitalized, be interested in? Would he be interested in the file of the patient lying to his right or to his left or would he be interested in his own file? He would get irritated if an expert doctor discussed his neighbour's health instead of discussing his own case. On our day of judgement, Karmasatta takes up our file for inspection. Karmasatta turns to the golden page on which there is a note of all our good deeds. However, if at the time, it overlooks the same and starts taking even the slightest interest in someone else's file, would we like that? When a poor speaks, he receives taps on his head and when a rich speaks, he receives claps. 118
