________________ 96 Letter 14 (6) Once we know that one attribute can not transform into another attribute, then the fact that the attribute of belief or Shraddha becomes totally pure (Real Right Belief) before the attribute of Charitra or conduct, which takes more time to be so; this fact is understood logically. (7) Infinite attributes of any substance can not split and separate from one another. This also means that where we can prove the existence of one attribute, at the same time the existence of all the other infinite attributes in the same substance must be there, this fact is automatically proved. Once we know the knowledge attribute of the soul all the other infinite attributes are proved at the same time. Here is the verse describing the attribute of Agurulaghutva. यह गुण अगुरुलघु भी सदा रखता महत्ता है महा, गुण-द्रव्य को पररूप यह होने न देता है अहा ! निजगुण-पर्यय सर्व ही रहते सतत निज भावमें कर्ता न हर्ता अन्य कोई यों लखो स्व स्वभावमें ॥ We will discuss the Pradeshatva ( narra) attribute in our next letter. With love. Your Mom. ********************************** * * * Chiefly one should make effort to engage one's Upayog in the ascertainment of Tattvas. Non-ascertainment of Tattvas is not the fault of any Karma but your own fault only ; but you pretend to remain faultless and want to put the blame of your fault on Karmas. You wish to continue indulgence in sensual pleasures ; therefore, you are lieing, why should one put up such argument if one has real urge for Moksha ? Even when you do not seem to attain your objective in worldly affairs, you continue making efforts in that direction, but here you do not want to make effort, therefore, it is concluded that you are praising Moksha by following others. It is impossible that one may not make effort for achieving an objective which is ascertained to be beneficial. Pt. Todarmalji — Moksha Marga Prakashak '. **********************************
