peak of external conduct related to the physical body. Thus these stanzas strengthen the importance of the real point of
view revealed in the previous stanza. Question: Even after the realization of the soul as described by
the real point of view one cannot attain the liberation without undergoing renunciation process as described by the relative point of view! Does it not mean that the relative point of view
is also valuable? Answer: Yes, the relative point of is also valuable. To avoid any
confusion, it is important to keep in mind the value of the relative point of view as described by Ācārya Kundakunda in stanzas 11 and 12. Stanzas 11, 12, and 272 are not inconsistent. Further, stanza 13 is also to be kept in mind that shows that even attainment of SamyagDarśana (4th Guņasthāna) is not possible without comprehending nine Tattva as described by the real point of view. It may also be noted that earlier also in various stanzas such as stanzas 1415, 73, 151-154, 180, 186, and 206, Ācārya Kundakunda has highlighted the importance of the realization of the soul as described by the real point of view. All such descriptions become helpful in understanding the real point of view and relative point of view in proper perspective. आयारादी णाणं जीवादी दंसणं च विण्णेयं । Egvulla forats a Ta Huile arai I QUERT 1127611 आदा खु मज्झ णाणं आदा मे दंसणं चरित्तं च । 3116T YUPONT 341CT #FORT GT 11277|| Āyārādī nāņam jīvādī damsanam ca viņneyam.
