GRANTHRAJ SHRI PANCH DHYAYI …37

Conclusion

1611. Shloka- (it establishes that)  whatever gyan foursome of Chhadmastha jiva exists ( Kshayopashamik Gyan) as a rule it is sequential and hence it is having Upayoga Sankranti.

Bhavartha- The questioner had the doubt that Samyak Darshan has two divisions of Savikalpa -Nirvikalpa. In reply it is told that one meaning of Vikalpa is Sankranti and Sankranti occurs in all four gyans of all Chhadmastha jivas. If for this reason you call Samyaktva as Savikalpa then it is your mistake since-

1612. Shloka- Just because its characteristics is Sankranti , such  Kshayopashamik Gyan Shakti does not cause any flaw due to which Samyaktva should be divided into Savikalpa and Nirvikalpa. The reason is that though it is Vaibhavik form even then it is still a shakti like Gyan Shakti.[Just as Gyan shakti is gyan form, the same way it is also gyan form. It is not raga form or some other form which generates some faults due to which the Samyaktva be called as Savikalpa.]

Bhavartha- Just as with destruction of Gyanavarana all the gyan gets revealed, in the same way with kshayoapasham of Gyanavarana some gyan gets revealed. Just as Kshayik Gyan is Gyan form, the Kshayopashamik gyan is also Gyan form. All that incomplete gyan is not hindrance to Samyaktva nor does it cause any flaw in it. It is still gyan form. If in reply it is said that gyan is swabhava form and this is vibhava form then the answer is that the vibhava is of two types. One is Samyaktva being in Mithyatva form  or charitra in raga form – such vibhava is converse of swabhava hence is harmful- but in gyan such is not the case. Swabhava gyan is complete knowledge and vibhava gyan is incomplete knowledge. Vibhava gyan is not any converse form which may be harmful but is gyan form like kshayik gyan. Hence it does not generate any flaw due to which the samyaktva may have two divisions of Savikalpa and Nirvikalpa. Now the second doubt is answered-

1613. Shloka- Here vikalpa does not mean raga but gyan with sankraman. All four are Kshyopashamik gyan. That Kshayopashamik gyan cannot hinder Gyan Chetana since that too is paryaya of gyan. The paryaya of gyan is gyan form only. Hence vikalpa (Kshayopashamik gyan with sankraman ) is not enemy of gyan Chetana.

Bhavartha- The other doubt was that Savikalpa Samyak Drishtis do not have Gyan Chetana. In reply it is told that Kshayopashamik Gyan is also Gyan form only and Gyan Chetana is also Gyan form. Both are generated with Kshayopasham of gyanavaran. Both are gyan form. Hence Kshayopashamik gyan is not hindrance to Gyan Chetana. How can both be enemy of each other with both being gyan form. It is not possible. The opposing karma to Gyan Chetana , its fruition can be hindrance to gyan Chetana. Vikalpa form gyan is paryaya of gyan only. Hence it is not opponent of gyan Chetana in any way. Therefore not accepting any kshyopashamik  Samyak Drishti to have gyan Chetana is major mistake.

Bhavartha ( again)- For Gyan Chetana being generated  with Samyaktva , the sankraman of all four gyans is not hindrance since hindrance to gyan Chetana can be fruition of gyanavarana only and not kshyopasham. Just as Shuddha paryaya of  kshayik gyan form generated with destruction of opponent karmas is not hindrance to gyan Chetana , in the same way the kshayopashamik gyan form paryaya of gyan generated with Kshayopasham of gyanavarana karma is not hindrance to gyan Chetana even though it is Vaibhavik by nature. Since the Gyan paryaya of Kshayopshamik Gyan form are gyan form only in certain  aspect. Therefore vikalpa of Kshayopashamik gyan cannot be hindrance to gyan Chetana.

Doubt

1614. Shloka- If you say that the Gyan of Samyak Drishti while traversing from one substance to another remains in Gyan Chetana form then does the gyan Chetana exist in another substance different from soul also?

Bhavartha- The questioner does not know the difference of Labdhi and Upayoga form divisions of gyan Chetana. He says that he has heard that gyan Chetana occurs in self only i.e. during gyan Chetana the upayoga is within self – it does not go else where . But you say that whether the Upayoga of Samyak Drishti be in self or others , the gyan Chetana remains at all times. Then does gyan Chetana occur in others also? In reply it is explained that it is right that Gyan Chetana occurs in self and not others. But knowing others has no relationship with gyan Chetana. At that time Upayoga form Gyan Chetana does not occur in others but upayoga form Gyan Chetana gets destroyed- but even at that time in his own soul the labdhi form gyan Chetana generated with specific kshayopasham of gyanavarana obscuring labdhi gyan having concomitance with samyaktva is present. On the basis of it only we can say that in spite of upayoga going into others the gyan Chetana is present.

Answer 1615-1624

1615. Shloka- Acharya says that it is right to say that with means going in opposition side the means gets corrupted , but here the means is not in opposite side. Since with the engagement of gyan Chetana in own shuddhatma different from other substances, the traversal of upayoga occurs in other substances also and still gyan Chetana does not engage in opposition.

Bhavartha- Some person was engaged in knowing different substances. Then diverting his gyan from them he directed it towards Shuddha Atma subject. At the time of experience of Shuddha atma, his gyan is Gyan Chetana form only and being diverted from external substances to own soul, it is sankraman form also. That Gyan Chetana form gyan does not have engagement in external substances also hence there is no transgression also.

1616. Shloka- All Samyak Drishtis always have gyan Chetana which is in continuous stream form or in an unobstructed flow form. ( This statement is from aspect of Labdhi form gyan Chetana).
Bhavartha- Such is the Siddhant that when the Darshan Moha karma is not under fruition, at that time the Gyanavarana karma obscuring the labdhi form gyan Chetana also undergoes kshayopasham for sure. Due to joint non fruition of the karmas obscuring samyaktva and gyan Chetana, the availability of both also occurs together only. So long as Samyaktva is present till then the labdhi form gyan Chetana also exists in undivided form . Hence along with Samyaktva, the gyan Chetana is said to have permanent relationship and the gyan Chetana of Samyak Drishti is called Nitya.

1617. Shloka- The reason for all the Samyak Drishtis to remain in gyan Chetana continuously is that the Gyan Chetana Labdhi which remains in concomitance form with Samyak darshan – it always remains with Samyak darshan due to removal of its obscuration. ( With generation of Samyak darshan there is specific kshayopasham of Mati Shruta Gyanavarana karma. That Kshayopasham is named Gyan Chetana Labdhi. This labdhi always remains with Samyak darshan in concomitance form and the same labdhi is cause for Upayoga form Gyan Chetana. )

Bhavartha- It has been told earlier that all Samyak Drishtis have nitya Gyan Chetana in indestructible stream form. The reason is that at the time of generation of Samyak Darshan itself the Gyan Chetana Labdhi gets generated since the mati-shruta gyanavarana karma obscuring this labdhi has concomitance with specific kshayopasham Samyaktva. Where the samyaktva is not existent, there is no kshayopasham of labdhi avaran karma. This is trikaal unhindered rule. Hence there is no gyan Chetana in others but even with upayoga going into others, the gyan Chetana is labdhi formn remains in self only. Now it is told that even if the upayoga goes from self into others and even if upayoga form gyan Chetana is destroyed ,  the labdhi form gyan Chetana cannot be destroyed.

1618. Shloka- Although the Upayoga form Gyan Chetana within self is impermanent and occurs rarely, even then it is not capable of destroying the labdhi form gyan Chetana since it does not have concomitance with it.

Bhavartha- Samyak Darshan is necessarily accompanied with specific kshayopasham of mati-shruta gyanavarana which is termed as Labdhi. With this labdhi only the soul experience directed towards own soul is own Upayoga. Labdhi and own upayoga have cause effect relationship. After attainment of Labdhi only, the own upayoga form gyan is accomplished , otherwise not. But such a rule is not there that after labdhi the own upayoga form gyan should definitely occur.  The own upayoga form gyan is Anitya. Labdhi form gyan is Nitya. At the time the soul is engaged in experience of self , at that time the own upayoga form gyan is attained. But labdhi form gyan remains existent. Hence own upayoga and Labdhi both have one sided pervasiveness. Upon attainment of own upayoga the labdhi is must but with labdhi the own upayoga form Chetana may or may not be there.

1619-20. Shloka- Here Labdhi and Upayoga have one sided pervasiveness since where labdhi is destroyed, the upayoga also gets destroyed. But where upyoga is destroyed, the labdhi may or may not be destroyed. The reason is that the kshayopasham of karma obscuring labdhi does not have pervasiveness with Upayoga but it has pervasiveness with Samyaktva. Hence with loss of Samyaktva the labdhi surely gets destroyed . Hence in spite of upayoga of Samyaktvi going into others the labdhi form gyan Chetana continues to be there.

 1621-22 Shloka- It is established fact from Jinagam that after attainment of Samyaktva the kshyopasham of karma obscuring labdhi form gyan chetana surely occurs and without attainment of Samyaktva the kshayopasham of karma obscuring labdhi form gyan Chetana also does not occur. At that time definitely the Chetana is engaged in Karma and karma phal. Gyani in spite  of being in Chhadmastha state continuously manifests in swamy form of gyan Chetana. He is not swamy of karma and karma phal Chetana. Here the weakness of present charitra paryaya has been made insignificant. Since Pratyaksh (direct) Praman is most powerful of all the Pramans ( i.e. we do not see karma Chetana and karma phal Chetana in Gyani but in Agyani in Pratyaksh.)

Bhavartha- This is seen by Keval Gyani in his divine gyan and is written in Agam that Samyaktva has symmetric pervasiveness with kshayopasham of labdhi Avaran karma. Based upon this we say that Samyak Drishti has gyan Chetana at all times. Second thing which is experienced in Pratyaksh is that when the samyaktva is absent along with Kshayopasham of Labdhi Avaran karma – at that time jiva has karma Chetana and Karma Phal Chetana. He is directly seen as karta-bhokta of karma. From this Pratyaksh praman it is known that so long as jiva has samyaktva till then the kshyopasham of labdhi avaran is also there and till then the Gyan Chetana is also there. Hence all Samyak Drishti have gyan Chetana.

1623. Shloka- From this it is established that Labdhi whose characteristics have been described earlier, is not upayoga form and is Nirvikalpa form ( without Sankranti).

Bhavartha- Labdhi is not upayoga form but is unobscuration of gyan form. When it is not upayoga form then it does not have vikalpa ( Sankranti) – it is nirvikalpa. Hence this Chetana is within self and not in others. Further it is told now that at the time of upayoga form gyan Chetana, the gyan Chetana is not within others but within self-

1624. Shloka- The Shuddha Upayoga in soul is upayoga form gyan Chetana. That upayoga also is free of sankraman from one subject to another and is therefore Nirvikalpa. ( It is free of Sankranti with respect to other substances). ( The Shuddha soul experience form gyan Chetana in Upayoga form is also really Nirvikalpa since so long as the Shuddha soul experience is there , for that period the gyan Chetana is upayoga form and at that time the Shuddha soul does not deviate towards other substances. Hence since there is no Sankranti hence the Upayoga form gyan also has been said to be Nirvikalpa.)

Bhavartha- The shuddhopayoga in own soul is Upayoga form Gyan Chetana. It is fully engaged in self only and in that there is no Upayoga Sankranti pertaining to other substances. Hence it is Nirvikalpa i.e. it is devoid of upayoga Sankranti pertaining to other substances. Hence there is no scope for gyan Chetana being in others. It was asked in 1614 that whether gyan Chetana exists in other substances , which was answered that labdhi form gyan Chetana and upayoga form gyan Chetana do not have any relation with other substances. Chetana is always in self only and not in others. Knowing others does not have relation with gyan Chetana.

Here the doubt may be raised that all Kshayopashamik Gyans have been called as Sankraman form while here the own Shuddha upayoga has been called as Nirvikalpa (without sankraman) , why? It should be understood that here the repetition of upayoga within same Shuddha atma is called as Sankraman form gyan and at the time of gyan Chetana form Upayoga without manifestation of gyan into another substance from Shuddha atma has been called as Nirvikalpa ( without sankraman) . Why so? The answer is that there the swabhava of kshayopashamik and Kshayik gyan was to be decided and here it has to be proved that gyan Chetana is not there in other substances. Both places there is difference of subject hence the meaning of Sankraman word is different.

Doubt

!625. Shloka- When the Upayoga of Samyak Drishti goes towards other external substance other than soul, then is there a loss?

Answer 1626-1663

1626. Shloka- It is fruition of glory of nature of Gyanopayoga that it is illuminator of both own and other’s forms like lamp.

Bhavartha- The task of gyan is knowing self and others all. Knowledge of self causes more samvar nirjara and knowledge of others causes less- such is not the case. It is not that knowing self does not cause bandh and knowledge of others causes bandh- such is also not the case. By nature it is knower of self and others. Hence with gyan of self or others, the samvar-nirjara or bandh-non bandh have no relationship. Just as lamp illuminates the self, in the same way it illuminates others also without residue. The same is the case with Gyan .

1627. Shloka- Just as Gyan knows the soul without specifics , in the same way it knows other gyeyas also. In Gyeya substances it knows corporeal and non corporeal also.

Bhavartha- Just as nature of gyan is to know self, in the same way it knows Pudgala, dharma, adharma, akash, kaal all. Hence there is nothing which gyan does not know. It knows Corporeal and non corporeal also.

1628. Shloka- Sometimes it is engaged in own nature and sometimes it is not engaged in own form. In the same way it is sometimes engaged in other substances and sometimes it is not engaged. ( i.e. the Kshayopashamik gyan knows self sometimes and sometimes it knows others. )

Bhavartha- The nature of Keval Gyan is to know self and others all in one samaya. There is no change of Upayoga. But the nature of Kshayoapashamik Gyan is such that sometimes it knows self and sometimes it knows others. Knowledge of self or others do not result in loss or benefit- this is explained-

1629. Shloka- That Upayoga engaging in self does not cause any benefit and engaging in others does not cause any harm.

Bhavartha- Whole world believes that it is better for Upayoga to remain in self and it is bad for it to go into others. Acharya says, it is a great mistake. The gyan does not have relation with loss or benefit.

1630. Shloka- Hence do not be miserable with desire of remaining in own soul,  departing from other substances so as to remain in self. Know the objective .

Bhavartha- With the bhava that knowing self is beneficial and knowing others is harmful- you do not be sorry for knowing others. This is mistake. Knowledge of self or others do not have relation with loss-benefit. Firstly know the objective- i.e. first decide that what is called as Guna(benefit)? Which are they? Due to what reason they are generated? What is loss?  Which are they? Due to what reason they are generated? Then you shall know if there is loss or benefit with upayoga going into others. Or this imagination itself is false.

1631. Shloka- Gyan keeps roaming in substances. Knowing each substance is really not for the loss or benefit. Knowing each substance is dharma of gyan. It does not have any relation with loss-benefit. Knowledge of self generates benefit and knowledge of others cause some loss, such is not the case.

Bhavartha- One should remember the rule that the nature of gyan is not to know just self but self and others both and the nature does not result in loss.

Description of faults 1632-1634

1632. Shloka- Loss is (1) complete loss of Samyak darshan (2) partial loss ( 3) damage to Nirjara with Samvar is also Fault.

Bhavartha- The forgoing  of Samyak Darshan is loss . The partial reduction of purity of Kshayopashamik samyaktva is loss. Due to partial loss of Samyaktva the reduction of Samvar Nirjara is loss.

1633. Shloka- (4) Separately or jointly destruction of Samyaktva and Nirjara is loss or, (5) reduction of (despicable) punya bandh is loss.

Bhavartha- Samyaktva and Nirjara have concomitance. Hence the destruction of both together is loss. Guna is called as one which is cause for salvation but punya is cause for bondage hence really it is not guna. It is despicable. Even then under certain conditions it is coexistent with Shuddhi hence reduction of that punya is also loss. It should not be misunderstood that due to punya the Shuddhi was present.

1634. Shloka- (6) Or the generation of pap bandh (7) increase of pap bandh is loss or, (8) the Udwelana of Samyak Prakriti and Samyak Mithyatva Prakrit into  Mithyatva form is also loss.

Bhavartha- When jiva becomes Aupashamik Samyak Drishti from eternal Mithya Drishti then the Mithyatva Prakriti gets divided into three parts on its own. When the jiva becomes Mithya Drishti from Samyak Drishti then of the three parts, paramanu of two of those Prakriti become Mithyatva form on their own. This is called as Udwelana of those two. Since the intensity of these two Prakriti enhances by converting into Mithyatva hence it results in generation of pap and enhancement of pap both. These two are also loss for soul.

Description of Gunas 1635-1636

1635. Shloka- Guna is (1) generation of Samyaktva or (2) enhancement of its purity partially (3) occurrence  of new Nirjara (4) occurrence of new Samvar

Bhavartha – Generation of Aupashamik Samyaktva from beginningless Mithya Drishti is Guna . Then attaining Kshayik samyaktva from  Aupashamik or Kshayopashamik samyaktva is Guna. The enhancement of fractions of purity of Kshayopashamik Samyaktva is also Guna. Beginning of new Nirjara with generation of Samyaktva is guna and occurrence of samvar along with is also Guna.

1636.  Shloka- Or (5) enhancement of Samvar and Nirjara both partially or (6) enhancement of one of them (7) occurrence of punya bandh (8) enhancement of that punya bandh (9) reduction of pap is Guna.

Bhavartha- In fourth gunasthana with the increase of Shuddhi of Gyani , accordingly the Samvar or Nirjara or both also enhance- this is guna. Tirthankara, Aharak, Anudish and Panchottar etc. there are some Prakritis which are bonded by Gyanis only- their bondage is Guna. In 4th to 10th the Anubhag of punya Prakritis keep increasing – this is guna. From 4th onwards the duration, intensity of bonded pap prakritis keep reducing – this is guna.
