THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS,
400. Material substance has been modified into words. If its attribute is different from the soul, then thou art not described at all. Why art thou angry? O unenlightened.
भसुहो सुहोव सहो ण तं भणदि सुणसु मंति सो चेव । रणय एदि विणिग्गहिदुं सोदु विसयमागदं सदं ॥४०१॥ भशुभः शुभो वा शब्दः न त्वां भणति शृणु मामिति स एव । न चैति विनिर्ग्रहीतुं श्रोत्रविषयमागतं शब्दम् ॥ ४०१ ॥
401. Bad or good word does not tell thee " hear me." And also that word does not come to be seosed (by thee). The word is the subject matter of the ear.
असुहं सुहं च एवं ण तं भणदि पेच्छ मंति सो चेव । णय एदि विणिग्गहिदुं चक्खुविसयमागदं रूवं ॥४०२॥ अशुभं शुभं वा रूपं न त्वां भणति पश्य मामिति स एव । न चैति विनिर्ग्रहीतुं चक्षुर्विषयमागतं रूपम् ॥ ४०२ ॥
402. Bad or good form does not tell thee "see me.” That also does not come to be sensed (by thee). The form is the subject matter of the eye.
असुहो सुहोय गंधो ण तं भणदि जिग्घ मंति सो चेव । णय एदि विणिग्गहिदुं घाणविसयमागदं गंधं ॥ ४०३॥ अशुभः शुभो वा गन्धो न त्वां भणति जिघ्र मामिति स एव । न चैति विनिहीतुं घ्राणविषयमागतं गन्धम् ॥ ४०३ ॥
403. Bad or good smell does not tell thee "smell me." That also does not come to be sensed (by thee). Smell is the subject matter of the nose.
असहो सुहोय रसोण तं भणदि रसय मंति सो चेव।। णय एदि विणिग्गहिदु रसणवि सयमागदंतु रसं॥४०४॥ अशुभ: शुभो वा रसो न त्वा भणति रसय मामिति स एव । नति विनिर्गहीतुं रसनविषयमागतं तु रसम् ॥ ४०४॥
