________________ SAMAYASARA. "Sva-samaya,” and those who are absorbed in Karmic effect " Para-samaya" or non-absorbed in the self, or rather non-selfabsorbed, i. e., absorbed in the non-self. एयत्तणिछय गदो समओ सव्वत्थ सुंदरो लोगे। बंधकहा एयत्ते तेण विसंवादिणी होदि ॥ ३॥ एकत्त्वनिश्चयगतः समयः सर्वत्र सुन्दरो लोके । बंधकथैकत्वे तेन विसंवादिनी भवति ॥३॥ 3. Absorbed in oneness, the soul (is) everywhere admirable in the Universe. The predication of bondage (as being) one with it is censurable. Commentary. The self-absorption of a soul is the condition of its own real self and is synonymous with " imperturbable bliss". It would therefore be admirable so long as it adheres to circumstances native to its bright nature. A soul having capabilities so high should remain true to its real nature. To become subject to Karmic bondage and the miseries which it brings is against the Soul's nature. The Author desires to stress the point that we should not hanker after the miserable unreality of our sinful, mundane life, when we can aspire to attain the purity of our Highest status. सुद परिचिदाणुभूदा सव्वस्स वि कामभोयबंधकहा। एयत्तस्सुवलम्भो णवरि ण सुलभो विभत्तस्स ॥ ४ ॥ श्रुनपरिचितानुभूता सर्वस्यापिकामभोगबंधकथा । एकत्त्वस्योपलंभः किन्तु न सुलभो विभक्तस्य ॥४॥ 4. The discourse relating to sense-enjoyments and Karmic bondage is heard understood, and experienced by all the (mundane souls). But realisation of absolute oneness. (with its own nature) free from (attachment, etc.) is not easy of attainment. Commentary. . All the mundane souls have one or more of the senses in the outer bodies, whether physical or fluid, and are endowed with sensedesires. To the last they aim at their fulfilment.
