GRANTHRAJ SHRI PANCH DHYAYI….34

 

Samanya form of Guru 1388-1412

1388. Shloka- In reality that Guru is Arhant only since he is preacher of Moksha Marg. He only is Bhagwan since he is leader of the real Moksha Marg.

Bhavartha- Arhant Bhagwan is called Param Guru and from  6th to 12th  Gunasthana Chhadmastha jivas ( Acharya, Upadhyaya, Sadhus) are called Guru. Guru must have Samyaktva, Charitra and external Internal Diagamber-ness for sure. Without that he cannot be Guru. Guru has primacy of preachment which is nimitta for own benefaction. The author says that Arhant Bhagwan benefits the jivas by preaching in divine Dhwani. The leader is also called Guru and he is leader of real Moskha Marg.

1389. Shloka- Below those (Arahant) the Chhadmastha Guru are there who are having attire of Arhant . There is no other guru since those have different attire. (External Internal Digamber-ness holder are called holder of Arhant form. Hence they are also Guru. This is the logic in favour of them being Guru. Other attire holders cannot be Guru.)

1390. Shloka- In the Guru-ness there is specific state is the  reason which is established by argument, own experience and Agam. With respect to  all the worldly jivas, they only are glorious. ( The reason for Guru-ness is soul experience and Veetrag Vigyan nature attained in 6th, 7th. Hence they are special compared to all worldly jivas.)

1391. Shloka- From aspect of future Naigam Naya, those going to happen are declared as happened itself and it is right also, since from 6th to 12th jivas would be Arhant as a rule. Hence from aspect of future Naigam Naya they can be called as Guru. This is logical. The jivas below  6th not having Arhant form , there is flaw in calling them Guru.

1392.Shloka- With non fruition of Mithyatva karma they have Samyak Darshan. With destruction of Charitra Mohaniya karma ( Anantanubandhi, Apratyakhyan, Pratyakhyan, Sanjwalan kashayas) the partial Samyak Charitra has been revealed. (6th to 12th)

1393. Shloka- Hence in those Gurus by nature Shuddha-ness is established since due to lack of fruition of moha karma there is impossibility of its resultant ragas etc. bhavas.

1394. Shloka- That Shuddha-ness is famous and is real cause for Nirjara. It is also reason for Samvar and in order it would result in Moksha.

1395. Shloka- In reality that Shuddha-ness only is by itself Nirjara trio form (Samvar-Nirjara-Moksha) since in those Shuddha bhavas the essential soul dravya is those three forms.

1396. Shloka- The Shuddha bhava of conscious soul is cause for Nirjara etc. That only is supremely venerable. The soul associated with that Shuddha bhava is Param Guru.

1397. Shloka- Logically the cause for Guru-ness is destruction of the flaws since those who are flawless are observer of the world and they only are leader of Moksha Marg and not others ( who are flawed) ( So long as Jiva is below 6th Gunasthana, till then he cannot be so much Veetragi to the extent it is required for Guru-ness. The one holder of equanimity only can be Guru.)

1398. Shloka- The chhadmastha nature of Muni does not harm his Guru-ness since the reason for ragas etc. form  ashuddha bhavas is only Moha karma which destroys the Guru-ness.

Doubt

1399. Shloka- The Gyanavarana and Darshanavarana karmas and the destroyer karma of Veerya ( Veeryantaraya) is surely present in those Gurus. Then how there is Shuddha-ness?

Bhavartha- The disciple believes the shuddhata of 13th gunasthana as Shuddhata and that shuddhata as cause for guru-ness . He does not accept guru-ness in chhadmastha.

Answer 1400-1404

1400.  Shloka- It is alright but it is to be noted that the bandh, sovereignty, fruition, destruction of these three karmas have universal concomitance with Mohaniya karma.

1401.Shloka-  It is this way- with bondage of moha karma the gyanavarana gets bonded since its bondage is dependent upon bandh of moha. Its sovereignty is dependent upon sovereignty of moha , its fruition is dependent upon fruition of moha and with its destruction, the destruction of these three occurs. Hence Gyanavarana, Darshanavarana, Veeryantaraya are completely dependent  upon  Mohaniya in every way.

1402. Shloka- It should not be thought that in chhadmastha state prior to destruction of Gyanavarana etc. the Moha karma is destroyed. In fact partial destruction of Moha karma causes destruction of Gyanavarana etc. also partially and complete destruction of Moha karma results in complete destruction of Gyanavarana etc. also.

1403. Shloka- Nirjara form Tattva of Gyanavarana etc. all karmas is not unestablished since with absence of fruition of darshan moha , the nirjara tattva also keeps multiplying innumerable times sequentially.

1404. Shloka- Hence although in this state the chhadmastha veetragi gurus have above described presence of three gyanavarana etc. karmas , even so in absence of raga, dwesha and moha the guru-ness is accepted.

Bhavartha- For guru-ness the amount of kshayopasham required of gyanavarana, dasrhanavarana, veeryantaraya , that much amount of Kshayopasham is present due to concomitance of absence of raga-dwesha-moha definitely.

1405. Shloka- That Guru is one type in Samanya form and in specifics it is of three types, just as fire can be called of three types those of grass, paper or that of wood.

1406. Shloka- Guru is believed to be of three types- Acharya, Upadhyaya and Sadhu. All three are existent in specific states and all three are great Munis.

1407. Shloka- All three have a common cause (state of karmas)  and deed is also same. The attire is same and externally also they are same. Twelve types of tapas are same and five kinds of MahaVritas are same.

1408. Shloka- Thirteen types of charitra is same and equanimity is of one type. The prime and secondary qualities are same and Sanyam also has been considered to be same.

1409. Shloka- The tolerance towards hardships and calamities are considered to be same. The procedure for Ahar etc. is same. The conduct, bedding, seating etc. are same.

1410. Shloka- For all the three the Moksha Marga i.e. the Samyak Darshan, Samyak Gyan and Samyak Charitra form jewel trio of soul is same internally as well as externally.

1411. Shloka- Dhyata ( worshiper ), Dhyan , Dhyeya ( objective) and Gyata , Gyan and Gyeya are same. Four types of Aradhana (worship) is same and the capability to overcome anger etc. is also same.

1412. Shloka- What is the use in telling more in this context.  Logically all three are similar and there is no difference. Now the forms  of the three are described-

Form of Acharya Guru 1413 – 1426

1413. Shloka- The term Acharya eternally exists. The sovereignty of five Parameshthis is also beginningless. Acharya is called as one who makes other Munis accept five types of conduct i.e. impart ordination.

1414. Shloka- The one who directs Sadhu to perform repentance for realigning with the Vritas again after a violation of the vritas, he is Acharya.

1415. Shloka- There is a difference between the preachment and direction. What is told in preachment is not necessary to follow. Acceptance is dependent upon disciple’s desire. But in direction such is not the case. Whatever has been told by guru should be accepted like an order. It is the resolution of the disciple that “ I accept the Vritas given by my Guru”.

1416. Shloka- House holders who are practitioner of Vritas are also eligible to direct other householders for practicing (like Acharya).

1417. Shloka- As per scriptures the non performers of Vritas cannot direct others. Also for whatever reasons they cannot give preachment  for violence.

1418. Shloka- Muni or house holder performers of Vritas should not indulge in preachment  or direction of  violence ( resulting in killing).

1419. Shloka- It should not be doubted that the Munis are practitioner of Vritas and they have the knowledge of  all the capabilities of corporeal substances like lines of palm.

Bhavartha- It is told that practitioners of Vritas do not give preachment of violence. Now someone may say that when Muni has knowledge of violent state of a person with his divine knowledge, then if he reveals it then  what is the objection. In answer it is told that the preachment of Veetragis cannot be generator of raga.

1420 Shloka- Those who are Veetragi , cannot  be given preachment incorporating Arambh (violence towards jivas). Such preachment is applicable to ragis hence to them only such preachments are made.

Bhavartha- Munis have low raga hence they are preached to give up remaining raga also. Hence preachments of Jin pooja is also negated since it incorporates Arambh. But house holders tread on ashubha as well as Shubha path hence they are preached to abandon ashubha and follow Shubha path first.

1421.  Shloka- Definitely in the context of giving charity to suitable candidates and in the pooja of Arhant neither direction is negated nor preachment is negated.

Bhavartha- Although both  activities involve Arambh since it generates raga bhava and mild himsa. However for householders it is permitted and advised.

1422. Shloka- Or for Munis only for absolutely flawless activity there can be preachment or direction. Where even an iota of pap is there the direction can never be there.

Bhavartha- In the activity which involves smallest amount of pap, it is absolutely not allowed to direct Munis towards them.

Doubt

1423. Shloka- Some people say that Acharya should inculcate relationship, dialog and friendship with Asanyami people also. The author says that those who keep relationship with Asanyami people can not be called Acharya nor is he a follower of Jina practices.

Bhavartha- The relationship of Achrayas is with Munis only and dialog is with them. The practitioner of Satya Dharma speaks beneficial words with other Munis and not non Sadhus. Hence relationship of Acharyas with non Sadhus is absolutely not proper.

1424. Shloka- In the Lok in certain faiths the Acharya is described as one nurturing the Sangh. In reply author says that it is not right since other than direction and preachment of dharma the Acharya has no other duty for other’s benefit.

1425. Shloka- If with Moha or Pramad he indulges in worldly activity then for that duration, he is not Acharya also since he is internally displaced from Vritas.

1426. Shloka- The one practitioner of Vrita, Tapa, Sheel and Sanyam etc. only is Acharya and  venerable. He is real Guru. Others are neither Guru not Acharya.

Form of Upadhyaya Guru 1427-1434

1427. Shloka- Upadhyaya provides solutions to doubts. He is knowledgeable of debates, syadvad, dwadashang , Siddhant and Agams.

1428. Shloka- Upadhyaya is poet since he  derives the meaning of sutras and knows the sweetness of their meaning. He is in forefront of preachers.

1429. Shloka- The special practice of shastras is prime cause for Upadhyaya-ness. The one who studies himself and makes disciples study , he is guru (Upadhyaya).

1430. Shloka- In Upadhyaya the other practices of Vrita etc. are common. That Upadhyaya preaches the dharma but does not direct like acharyas in any subject.

1431. Shloka- He remains in the Ashram (company) of Acharyas, practicing same attire, tapa, Shuddha charitra and the five conducts.

1432. Shloka- Like described in shastras the Upadhyaya practices the prime and secondary qualities for ever. He is conqueror of hardships , calamities  and senses.

1433. Shloka- No purpose in further elaboration. Definitely the one adopting internal and external Shuddha attire of Muni is brave, Nirgranth and leader of the group is Upadhyaya.

1434. Shloka- The Upadhyaya was properly described who is famous with his characteristics. Now the characteristics of Sadhu are being described from Agam.

Form of Sadhu Guru 1435 to 1442

1435. Shloka- The one adorned with Samyak Darshan-Samyak Gyan-Samyak Charitra who practices the charitra pertaining to Moksha Marg for attainment of soul is Sadhu.

1436. Shloka- This Sadhu does not speak anything ( speech inhibition), does not indicate by means of hand or legs etc. ( body inhibition) and does not contemplate with mind ( mind inhibition) but remains stationary within own soul.

1437. Shloka- That Sadhu remains immersed in only Shuddha Atma. He is like the ocean without waves where all the internal and external speech practices have stopped.

1438. Shloka- That Sadhu neither directs nor preaches of Swarga or Moksha Marg then where is the question of him directing or preaching marg opposite to that of swarga or Moksha.

1439. Shloka- He has  reached the pinnacle of detachment, adorned with high brightness, he is Digamber , naked like the new born and ready for compassion.

1441. Shloka- That Sadhu is Nirgranth who opened the knots of internal and external Moha, practitioner of rules; he is Tapaswi who performs Nirjara of Karmas in the sequence of Guna Shreni with the rays of the form of Tapa. 

1441. Shloka- He cannot get overcome by hardships and calamities, he has conquered Kamdeva and is fully purified with Ahar Shuddhi. He is prepared for Tyag (Pratyakhyan).

1442. Shloka- Thus he is adorned with many good qualities . Such great Sadhu is certainly venerable to Gyanis for attainment of Moksha and not others.

1443. Shloka- In this way great amongst the greats, the Muni Trio were described. But there is some difference between them which is as follows-

1444. Shloka- In the three Acharya is famous who is in forefront for imparting ordination and direction in the Muni group. He is  stationed within his soul. With logic, direction (agam) and own experience he is established.

1445. Shloka- In reality he is not unstable in his own soul since there is presence of non fruition of darshan moha. Due to non fruition of Darshan Moha the concomitance form Shuddha Atma experience is clearly  existent.

1446. Shloka- In that Shuddha soul experience the partial destruction of charitra mohaniya karma is also reason. Only by means of external objects the harm or non harm to Shuddha soul experience does not happen.

1447. Shloka- With Upadan reason the harm or non harm  to Shuddha soul experience occurs. Even then the external object ( ordination-direction-preachment etc.) are not cause for harm or non harm to Shuddha soul experience since the external object is non-cause for such harm- non harm.

1448. Shloka- The Desh Ghati ( partially damaging) Spardhak of Sanjwalan Kashaya manifesting in weak or strong forms are the reasons for harm-non harm of Shuddha soul experience.

1449.  Shloka- Definitely the harm to Shuddha soul experience is Sanklesh ( perturbation) while non harma to Shuddha soul experience is Vishuddhi ( purification) . That Sanklesh and Vishuddhi also have several types in own parts . These parts have different divisions and several types.

1450. Shloka- On account of weak or strong fruition of Sanjwalan, there may be lethargy or non lethargy in Shuddha soul experience but this alone does not imply non steadiness in soul by  Acharya.

1451. Shloka- In that Shuddha soul experience due to weak fruition of sanjwalan there is part vishuddhi for sure or in its strong fruition the part sanklesh is surely there. But that Sanklesh or Vushuddhi is not considered as reason for hindrance to Shuddha soul experience.

1452. Shloka- Due to destiny  the vishuddhhi part enhances or the sanklesh part enhances but the  Shuddha soul experience of acharya is unhindered. Only this much is the hindrance that with weakness of sanjwalan Kashaya the charitra becomes vishuddha or with strongness of sanjwalan Kashaya the charitra becomes more sanklesh form.

1453. Shloka- The strength of sanjwalan Kashaya causes Pramad but cannot be cause for displacement from soul experience.

1454. Shloka- But this is not sufficient for displacement from Shuddha soul experience since the reason for total separation from Shuddha soul experience is some other karma.

1455.  Shloka- In the gyan ( experience) of Shuddha soul the non fruition of Mithyatva karma is the cause and real hindrance is fruition of Mithyatva karma since with fruition of Mithyatva the Shuddha soul experience gets destroyed.

1456. Shloka- The non fruition of Darshan Moha results in experience of Shuddha soul.  Fruition of Charitra Avaran cannot cause hindrance to Shuddha experience.

1457. Shloka- It does not mean that fruition of Charitra Avaran is irrelevant. It is not capable of doing the job of darshan Moha but it is capable of doing own task.

1458. Shloka-The job of charitra moha is displacement of soul from charitra. But not from belief of soul since it is Drishti. (i.e. Drishti guna is different from Charitra guna) similar to second eye.

Bhavartha- If one eye stops seeing even then the viewing from second eye is not stopped. In the same way the fruition of Charitravaran results in displacement from charitra but not from Drishti. The displacement from Drishti is due to Darshan Moha only.

1459. Shloka- For example by chance someone’s one eye is alright then in spite of problem with other eye the loss of vision of that eye is not directly seen.

1460. Shloka- The non fruition of kashayas is equal to the amount of charitra. The amount of Kashaya fruition is equal to displacement from charitra.

1461. Shloka- The fruition or non fruition of charitravaran happens on its own. Hence without fruition of Darshan Moha the Atma Drishti does not get harmed.

1462. Shloka- Acharya and Upadhyaya both are equal, both are sadhu and are Atma Gyani like sadhu. They are Shuddha and Shuddhopayogi.

1463. Shloka- In both of them there is no difference and with respect to these two the Sadhu also does not have any speciality. All three are the same.

1464. Shloka- If there is even a bit of difference then it is with respect to  external activities while internally all three are the same. In spite of difference of external activities the internal purity is the same.

1465. Shloka- In all the three Acharya, Upadhyaya, Sadhu there is no certainty of weak, medium or strong fruition of Sanjwalan Kashaya. This is established with argument, agam and own experience. 

1466. Shloka- Each of Acharya-Upadhyaya and sadhus are many since they are different in respects of lowest, medium and supreme bhavas.

1467. Shloka- Some Acharya definitely attaining supreme Vishuddhi, later takes recourse to medium or lowest vishuddhi.

1468. Shloka- Why does the Vishuddhi change from supreme to medium and lowest sometimes? The reason for this is that every moment the fruition of spardhaks of Kashaya are taking place which changes the types of bhavas. In the reduction of vishuddhi the preachment of dharma and direction for dharma-external factors – cannot be called as reasons.

Bhavartha- The preachment of dharma by Acharya cannot be described as cause for reduction of vishuddhi since in that Acharya does not have any Pramad. The cause for drop in Vishuddhi is the fruition of spardhaks of sanjwalan kashayas. Those who think that in controlling the disciples the charitra of Acharya gets weakened, it is not correct. The order of Acharya is without Kashaya dharma  which cannot be called as faulty at any time.

1469. Shloka- The Upadhyaya and Sadhus also should be known by the same procedure since between them and Acharya there is no difference.

Doubt

1470. Shloka-   The preachment of dharma etc external activities are cause in the speciality of the Acharya since sometimes the external activities  are external means for internal means. (i.e.  in karma fruition form internal reasons the dharma preachment kriya should be accepted as cause.) Acharya says that such logic should not be applied.

Answer 1471-73

1471. Shloka- It is not so since in reality the complete external substance is irrelevant. But yes, for the one desirous of Acharya status out of moha , it would lead to worldly results (karma bandh).

1472. Shloka- The direction for dharma and preachment of dharma etc., his own status of Acharya and resultant pride etc. – non desirous of all these in any way, what can be said about such Acharya? ( Acharyas do not have moha in anything.)

1473. Shloka- The lack of desire in Dharma preachment kriya of the acharya is well established since logically the sensory desires only are desires . In other things the desire is not counted.

Doubt

1474. Shloka- Without kriya there cannot be desire and without desire there cannot be kriya- such is the rule. Hence  without desire kriya is not possible whether it is related to senses or not.

Bhavartha- All worldly activities whether pertaining to senses or dharma are not without desire hence the preachment kriya of acharya is with desire only. Hence Acharya is also desirous not desireless.

Answer 1475-1481

1475. Shloka- It is not so since Ksheen Kashaya and nearby gunasthanas the characteristics “ there is no kriya without desire” is over pervasive. Since in 12th if desire is accepted due to presence of kriya then  the bandh would always continue and there would be no salvation.

Bhavartha- It is not a rule that kriya cannot occur without desire. In 10th and 12th kriya is there but there is no desire since desire is paryaya of greed Kashaya which has been destroyed there. If in 10th and 12th desire is considered then there would never be end to karma bandh  and there would be no Moksha. Hence this doubt is not valid that there cannot be  kriya without desire.

1476. Shloka- Hence between Acharya, Upadhyaya, Sadhus there is internal difference from aspect of different amount of Vishuddhi , but from aspect of samanya all three are same. Hence describing difference in them from aspect of external kriya is not right.

1477. Shloka- And in Paramagam this fact is famous that without acceptance of Sadhu state, no one can attain Keval Gyan.

1478. Shloka- And in that Paramagam the omniscient who has observed all the substances directly , has told rightly that within moments of climbing the shreni he attains Sadhu state automatically.

1479. Shloka- Since that Acharya or Upadhyaya, at the time of climbing the shreni surely takes recourse to Dhyan which is of the form of prevention of all vikalpas.

1480. Shloka- Hence it establishes that at the time of shreni for both of them (Acharya Upadhyaya) without any effort the Sadhu state is attained since there is no scope of external Upayoga for sure.

1481. Shloka- It is not so either that Acharya ( at the time of climbing the shreni) firstly accepts chhedopasthapana form supreme charitra and then accepts sadhu state.

Bhavartha- If someone doubts that the Acharya after direction (to disciples) kriya takes prayashchit (repentance ) and then attains Sadhu state then such doubt is not true since kriya of Acharya are not faulty and he does not have to undertake chhedpasthapana charitra. Internally he is like sadhu only. Only external kriya are different which is not cause for differentiating between them.

1482. Shloka- Contextually the characteristics of Guru were described only name sake. The details should be known from Jinagam specifically.
