________________ Biaṁ Ajjhayaņam Chapter 2 Summary A person who is a slave of his worldly desires and is constantly striving to fulfill them meets with unhappiness at every step in his life. He becomes a slave of the world and is constantly tormented by worldly attractions. Therefore, if one wants to follow the path of spirituality, one must know the tendencies of all his desires and let go of them. According to Lord Mahavira, one who has nothing to give up is not a renunciate. A renunciate is the one who, having all the comforts and pleasures of the world at his disposal, gives them up to follow the path of spirituality to attain the truth. He is the only true ascetic.
