________________ प्रशमरसिप्रकरणम् Souls and non-Souls are (generally called) dravyatmans, passionate Souls are (called) kaşāyātmans, Souls dominated by actions are yogātmans and all Jivas are (in general) Upayogatmans 200 ज्ञानं सम्यग्दृष्टेर्दर्शनमथ भवति सर्वजीवानाम् । चारित्रं विरतानां तु सर्वसंसारिणां वीर्यम् ॥२०१॥ The right visioner possesses knowledge (thus he is called as Jūānātman); all Jivas have indeterminate knowledge (thus called as Darsanātmans); detached persons possess conduct (thus called Caritrātmans) and all mundane Souls have vigour (thus called Vīryātmans). 201 द्रव्यात्मेत्युपचारः सर्वद्रव्येषु नयविशेषेण । आत्मादेशादात्मा भवत्यनात्मा परादेशात् ॥२०२॥ Metaphorically, on the basis of particular view points, all substances are called Dravyātmans. Soul is Soul on account of its own nature (i. e. it exists from the point of view of its own substance, place, time, and form) and it does nat exist from the point of view of nature of other substances. 202 एवं संयोगाल्पबहुत्वाधैर्नेकशः स परिमृग्यः । जीवस्यैतत्सर्व स्वतत्त्वमिह लक्षणैदृष्टम् ॥२०॥ Thus, here, Soul is to be searched in various ways-such as (its) association (with) smallness and abundance. All these kinds of nature of Soul are known by their characteristics. 203 उत्पादविगमनित्यत्वलक्षणं यत्तदस्ति सर्वमपि । सदसद्वा भवतीत्यन्यथाऽर्पितानर्पितविशेषात् ।।२०४।। All that which is possessed of characteristic of production, destruction and permanence is substance (=Sat). Otherwise (a thing) becomes existenet or non existent (Sat or asat) on account of its peculiarity of preeminence and subordination. 204 Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
