Trans. 70-71. Or, just as you worship the image of a Tirthankara for the sake of blissful result in spite of your knowing that the image of Tirthankara has no qualities of the Tirthankara, in the same way, why (should you) not respect a sadhu also? In the form of an ascetic, (real) qualities of a sadhu may or may not be (found ). But thats is altogether absent in the image. Why is the image, then, taken as worthy of worship, and what makes the form of an ascetic unworthy of respects? 2365-2366.
