________________ 155 Ginas have taught, (thinking) they are of this and not of a different nature, believes by nature. (18) 2. But he who believes these truths, having learned them from somebody else, either a Khadmastha1 or a Gina, believes by instruction. (19) 3. He who has got rid of love, hate, delusion, and ignorance, and believes because he is told to do so, believes by command. (20) 4. He who obtains righteousness by (the study of) the Sûtras, either Angas or other works 2, believes by the study of Sutras. (21) 5. He who by correctly comprehending one truth arrives at the comprehension of more-just as a drop of oil expands on the surface of waterbelieves by suggestion. (22) 6. He who truly knows the sacred lore, viz. the eleven Angas, the Prakîrnas3, and the Drishtivâda, believes by the comprehension of the sacred lore. (23) LECTURE XXVIII. 7. He who understands the true nature of all substances by means of all proofs (pramâna) and nayas1, believes by a complete course of study. (24) 8. He who sincerely performs (all duties implied) 1 A khadmastha is one who has not yet obtained Kêvala, or the highest knowledge; he is in the two gunasthânas (the fourteen stages in the development of the soul from the lowest to the highest) characterised as 1. upasântamôha, and 2. kshînamôha; viz. 1. that in which delusion is only temporarily separated from the soul, and 2. that in which delusion is finally destroyed. 2 Bâhira; apparently the same works are intended which are elsewhere called anangapravishta. The original has the singular. The seven nayas are 'points of view or principles with reference to which certain judgments are arrived at or arrangements made.' Bhandarkar, Report, p. 112.
