आम्नाययुक्तियोगैः समुपास्य नित्यमात्महितैः ॥ ३१ ॥ Those who have thus attained right faith, and are ever intent on self-evolution should devote themselves to the acquisition of right knowledge, after having tested it carefully, according to the system of Jain Philosophy and the rules of logic.

Samyaktra (Argfra) right faith has already been defined and explained wat length in the preceding chapter. In this chapter the author deals with Samyak Gyan. Knowledge acquired previous to the attainment of Right faith could not be called Right knowledge. When the faith becomes clear, and certain, the knowledge which was till then hazy and doubtful becomes luminous and well-defined. ... पृथगाराधनमिष्टं दर्शनसहभाविनोऽपि बोधस्य ।
लक्षणभेदेन यतो नानात्वं संभवत्यनयोः ॥ ३२ ॥

The Lords Victorious have called Right knowledge the effect, and Right faith the cause. Therefore it is proper to devote oneself to the acquisition of knowledge after attaining
Right Faith. Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara, Surat
