* 85
केसिमेव बुवंतं तु गोअमो इणमन्यवी । विष्णाणेण समागम्म धम्मसाहणमिच्छ्रिअं ॥ ३१ ॥
31. Késimèvam buvantam tu Goamo inamabbavi; Vinnānéņa samagamma dhamma sahaṇamicchhiam.
31. To Šramana Kési Kumāra asking in this way Gaṇadhara Mahārāja Indrabhūti Gautama replied thus:-The Tirthamkaras having ascertained विष्णाणेण Vinnānéna विज्ञानेन Vijnanéna, by Kévala Jnana, whatever is appropriate for their ascetics, have permitted the use of materials necessary for the fulfilment of their, various duties.
The ascetics of the time of Tirthamkara Bhagavan Shree Rishabha-léva Swami and of the time of Tirthamkara Bhagavan Shree Vardhamana Swami were not allowed the use of coloured and costly garments, under the fear of their undertaking the preparation of these articles involving the death of many small animalcules during the process or having these articles prepared for themselves by others, because they were crooked and dull. The ascetics of the time of Tirthamkara Bhagavan Shree Parsva Nath were straight-forward and wise and hence there was no objection in allowing them the use of such beautiful and costly garments.
पचयत्थं च लोगस्स,
नाणाविहविगप्पणं ।
जत्तत्थं गहणत्थं च, लोए लिंगप्पओअणं ।। ३२ ।।
32. Pachchayattham cha logassa nānāviha_vigappanam; Jattattham gahanattham cha loé lingappaoanam.
अह भवे पइण्णा उ, नाणं च दंसणं चेव,
मोक्ख सन्भू साहणो ।
चरितं चैव निच्छुए ॥ ३३ ॥
33. Aha bhavé painnā u MokkhasabbhŪasāhnno; Nānam cha damsa nam chéva charittim chéva nicchhaé.
