________________ 144 THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS. जो सो दुहभावो ह्नि गरे तेण तस्स रयबंधो । च्छिदो विष्णेयं कायचेहाहिं सेसाहिं ॥ २५५ ॥ यः स तु स्नेहभावस्तस्मिन्नरे तेन तस्य रजोबंधः । निश्चयतो विज्ञेयं न कायचेष्टाभिः शेषाभिः ।। २५५ ।। एवं मिच्छादिट्टी तो वहुविहासु चेहासु । रागादी उवोगे कुव्वतो लिप्पदि रयेण ॥ २५६ ॥ एवं मिथ्यादृष्टिर्वर्त्तमानो बहुविधासु चेष्टासु । रागादीनुपयोगे कुर्वाणो लिप्यते रजसा ।। २५६ ।। struments. 252-256. When a man besmeared with oil performs exercises with weapons in a very dusty place; and when he cuts and breaks palm, Tamala, plantain, bamboo and Ashoka trees, and destroys living and non-living things. To him (thus) causing destruction by means of many kinds of inThink correctly, what is the reason of that man being besmeared with dust. Consider what reason there is for his being covered with dust, when he has been making such onslaughts by various weapons. It is the presence of oil which makes him coated with dust. Know, that this is certainly not caused by the (other) movements of his body. Similarly, a wrong believer engaged in many kinds of activity, aud having attachment, etc., in his conscious attention, is smeared by the dust (of Karmas ) . Commentary. Wrong belief, vowlessness, passions and vibratory activity are factors which like oil help in the coating of the dust of Karmas. Otherwise the rising Karmas would fall like dust off a dry surface. If a wise man is walking carefully with the intention of not hurting any living being, and if by chance a being is hurt or destroyed by his bodily movements, he will not be guilty of such harm, because of a total want of intention to cause injury. He will rather gather virtue because of his compassionate thought-activity. जह पुण सोचेव परो गेहे सव्वा अवणिये संते । रेणुवहुलम्म ठाणे करेदि सत्थेहि वायामं ॥ २५७ ॥ Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
