THUS SPAKE THE PARAMATMA
VI
Acharya Shri Kailassagarsuri Gyanmandir
The supreme benefactor, the Jineshwar Paramatma preached the dharma, for the spiritual elevation of all jivas. You should remember that your speech is the basis of your life. It is the basis of all your activities in
life.
The Paramatma's utterances are perfect, pure and absolutely free from attachments and hatred. It is not a curse but a blessing; it bestows upon us a supreme benefaction.
What the Paramatma attained by means of his endeavours; what he saw with his Kevaljnan, he revealed through his utterances for the spiritual elevation of jivas. He bestowed this benefaction upon jivas with benevolence.
There is no superfluity in the Paramatma's utterances. There is nothing inauspicious about them. They give expression to pure Tatvas which are sweet and beneficial and which possess the thirty six virtues of speech. His utterances are unexampled for their sublimity and splendour. If you hear those utterances with faith, they will inspire in you the spirit of renunciation; and they will create in you a hunger for salvation. Such is the efficacy of the Paramatma's utterances. They possess a special virtue. His utterances are appealing because they are imbued with love and because they are totally devoid of attachments and hatred.
