Ratnakarandaka-śrāvakācāra
Whenever Jīva has desires high and noble, thoughts based on love and sympathy and in whose mind there are no evil impulses towards the same, the Karmic matter that causes merit flows in as conditioned by the above mentioned springs of righteousness. तिसिदं बुभुक्खिदं वा दुहिदं दठूण जो दु दुहिदमणो । पडिवज्जदि तं किवया तस्सेसा होदि अणुकंपा ॥ १३७ ॥ If anyone moved at the sight of the thirsty, the hungry and the miserable, offers relief to them, out of pity, then such behavior of that person is love or charity. कोधो व जदा माणो माया लोभो व चित्तमासेज्ज । जीवस्स कुणदि खोहं कलुसो त्ति य तं बुधा वेति ॥ १३८ ॥ Whenever anger, pride, deceit and covetousness, appear in the mind of a Jīva, they create disturbing emotion, interfering with calmness of thought. This emotional agitation of thought is called impure thought by the wise.
चरिया पमादबहुला कालुस्सं लोलदा य विसयेसु । परपरितावपवादो पावस्स य आसवं कुणदि ॥ १३९ ॥ Inordinate taste for worldly things, impure emotions, hankering for and indulging in sensual pleasures, causing anguish to fellow beings, and slandering them openly or covertly; these constitute the spring of evil. सण्णाओ य तिलेस्सा इंदियवसदा य अत्तरुद्दाणि* । णाणं च दुप्पउत्तं मोहो पावप्पदा होंति ॥ १४० ॥
