Ratnakarandaka-śrāvakācāra
नहि सम्यग्व्यपदेशं चरित्रमज्ञानपूर्वकं लभते । ज्ञानानन्तरमुक्तं चारित्राराधनं तस्मात् ॥ ३८ ॥ Conduct based on ignorance can certainly not be termed "right". It is for this reason that adoration of conduct is preached to be proper subsequent to the attainment of right knowledge (samyagjńāna). चारित्रं भवति यतः समस्तसावद्ययोगपरिहरणात् । सकलकषायविमुक्तं विशदमुदासीनमात्मरूपं तत् ॥ ३९ ॥ Right conduct (samyakcāritra) is achieved by abjuring all sinful activities of the body, the speech, and the mind. It is devoid of all passions, untainted, unattached to any alien substance, and very nature of the soul.
