C. Prabhāsa:--Jnāna and sukha of a siddha being. are a-nitya firstly because they are produced by means of the painful observance of penances etc, and secondly, because they are susceptible to production, like ghata. Bhagavāna:--Your argument is absolutely unfounded. Q Prabhāsa! Jnana and sukha of a muktātmā would be a nitya only if they vanished. By means of jñānāvaraņas, jñāno would be obscurad and hence destroyed and with the rise of sinful deeds, sukha would vanish. Both these obstructions jñānāvaragas and papa-karmas are bound by the hétus of mithyatva etc, muktātmā being free from such hétus, it is free from jñāuāvaraṇas and papa-karmas also. Consequently, its jnana and sukha do not meet destruction, and hence they are never called a-nitya. Secondly, all the qualities of cétana are not a-nilya Dravyatva and a-mūrtatva are nitya. Therefore, the argument that jñana and sukha are a-nitya because they happen to be cétana-dharmas, is anékāntika Similarly, the hétu of kṛitakatva etc is also anékäntika. Indestructiblity of ghaţa is a-siadha inspite of its being kitaka. This hétu is a siddha also, because jnana and sukha of a siddha being, are natural. Since there is no reason for the existence of avaranas and badhas, that which is in obscuri, becomes manifest Thus, they are not factitious Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
