should not indulge in laxity. When there is non-vigilance of the nature of non-enthusiasm in the practice of the discipline, there is predominance of inauspicious activities and consequently there is premature realization and transference of karma. As a result, there is suppression of auspicius karma and transference of the auspicious into the inauspicious. Therefore it is a truism that wherever there is non-vigilance, there is fear. The reverse takes place in the state of vigilance. There is elimination of inauspicious karma due to premature realization of the auspicious, and also transference of the inauspicious into the auspicious. 5.24 jāņittu dukkham patteyam sāyam
One should not indulge in negligence, knowing pleasure and
pain of the individual himself. Bhagyam Sutra 24
Pleasure and pain are confined to the individual alone. none else can take upon himslef the pleasure and pain of others. Knowing this, one should desist from 'non-vigilance.2.3 5.25 pudho chamdā iha māņavā, pudho dukkham paveditam.
People have diverse motives, and sufferings are also said to
be diverse. Bhāyyam Sutra 25
That the pleasure and pain are confined to each particular individual is due to the fact that the psychic mood which is the substantial cause of pleasure and pain belongs exclusively to the individual. This truth has been expounded here. The people in this world have different interests and multiple moods. This is the reason why pleasure and pain are differently wished for by different persons. Some people regard violent indulgence as pleasure and some regard it as pain. Similarly some people consider non-violence as pain, while others regard it as pleasure. In this way, the thought about pleasure and pain is not absolute. Therefore, the awakened person should lead a life of non-violence, knowing that pleasure and pain are confined to the individual himself.
