YOGAVIMŚIKĀ तित्थस्सुच्छेयाइ वि, नालंबणमित्थ ज स एमेव । सुत्तकिरियाइ नासो, एमो असमंजस विहाणा ॥१४॥ tillhassuccheyāi vi, nalambañamittha jam sa emeva /
sutlakiriyāi nāso, eso asamañjasavihāņā ||14|| Even in the name of maintaining the continuity of the religious tradition should one not impart religious trajning to an upfit person ; for an iniproperly undertaken religious observance verily results in an end of the religious observance as laid down in the scriptural texts, and that, in turn, means an end of the religious tradition itself.
Note : The idea is that one who, with a view to maintaining the continuity of the religious tradition, encourages an improperly under taken religious observance will find his purpose defeated in the long run.
सो एस वंकओ चिय, न य सयमयमारियाणमविसे सो । एयं पि भावियवं, इह तित्थुच्छेयभीरूहि ॥१५॥ so esa vankan ciya, na ya sayamayamāriyānamaviseso / eyan pi bhāviyadvař, iha tilthuccheyabhtrūhim ||15||
Tous an improperly undertaken religious observance is certainly conducive to (spiritual) disaster. Again those who are afraid of the likely termination of the religious tradition, let them also reflect over the fact that it is no matter of indifference whether one dies in natural course or is killed by somebody else.
Note : The idea is that if we have to chose between the termination of a religious tradition as a result of nobody practising its precepts and its termination as a result of people practising its precepts improperly the former should be preferred as the lesser evil.
मुत्तण लोगसन्नं उड्ढण य साहुसमयसमावं । सम्मं पयट्टियव्वं, वुहेणमइनिउणवुद्धीए ॥१६|| multūra logasannañ uddhūņa ya sāhusamayasabbhāvan | samman payalligarvan, buhenamainiunabuddhie 111611
Thus giving up the pathetic desire to please the commonfolk and grasping the true import of teaching of the noble opes an intelligent person, appiying his keen wit, should pursue what is the proper path.
Note : Sañjna is the technical name for a certain group of patbetic fecling (enumerated as ien - sometimes as four). Loka-sanjña is a member of this group.
