SECTION II
ON APUNARBANDHAKA
(1) His Nature:
भवाभिनन्दिदोषाणां प्रतिपक्षगुणैर्युतः । वर्धमानगुणप्रायो अपुनर्बन्धको मतः ॥१७८॥ bhavābhinandidoşāņām pratipaksagunair putaḥ / vardhamānaguna prāyo apunarbandhako matah |/178/]
.' The Apunarabandhaka is described as possessed of those meritorious qualities which stand in opposition to the defects of a 'welcomer of the worldly existence'; besides, he is described as one whose meritorious qualities are in most cases ever-jncreasivg
अस्यैषा मुख्यरूपा स्यात् पूर्वसेवा यथोदिता । कल्याणाशययोगेन शेषस्याप्युपचारतः ॥१७९॥

nāsannopy asya bahulyad anyathaitatpradarsakah //18011 We have mentioned 'preliminary performance' even in the case of certaju 11on-Apiparbandhakas in view of the fact that in their case (even if itself figurative) it acts as a cause of the real 'preliminary performance'; this way we have demonstrated that even that man who is only on the verge of becoming an Apunarbandhaka does not usually behave in a much different fashion from an Apunarbandhaka,
' शुद्धयल्लोके यथा रत्नं जात्यं काञ्चनमेव वा ।
गुणैः संयुज्यते चित्रैस्तदात्माऽपि दृश्यताम् ॥१८१॥ suddhyal loke jatha ratnam jālyaṁ kūñcanam eva vā / gunaih samyujyale citrais tadvad älmā'pi dịśyatām i1181/1
