Means of Self-Realization means,“(the aspirant) ceases to have attachment even to his body." Whoever has attachment either auspicious or inauspicious for substances other than the soul, the conduct of such a person is corrupt (bhrasta). Therefore he says that whoever is free form all associations and is uninterruptedly stable in nature of the soul and is only a knower and a seeker, can be called a practitioner of self-conduct(sva-caritra) and such a person becomes entitled to self-realization.
Main obstruction in the unfoldment of right conduct is the deluding (mohanīya) karma, which is of two types : faith - deluding (darśana- mohaniya) and conduct-deluding(cāritra - mohaniya). After destruction of faith- deluding karma, one attains great love for the path of the conquerors. As the conduct - deluding karma gets destroyed, passions are destroyed and total interest, acts and efforts, mental, oral and physical are directed towards sefl-realization.43 In his Vyākhyānasāra Srimad Rajchadra again says : There cannot be right knowledge (of the soul) without good thoughts, and there cannot be right knowledge, without right faith and in the absence of right knowledge and right faith there cannot be right conduct without which again there cannot be omniscience (kevalajñāna) and liberation. **
