- Tribute to Amrit - Acharya Vijayarajaratnasuri
- If the mind does not have proper and sensible control, how dangerous even a two-legged thought without activity can bring dangerous consequences is evident in this example of Tandulmatsya.
Even though a car can travel at a speed of 120 km or more, one thing is for sure, the brakes are more important than the speed of the car. If the brakes of a 'car' with a heart-pounding speed are not right, it will not feel like Ram playing in the horrible accident of the 'car' and the passengers in it. It is certain that the scientists of the experiment school should have full control over it. If it is not controlled, the spacecraft will not be left unattended without performing any useful function.
Simply put, the same thing that applies to this 'car' or spacecraft also applies to the three special powers that a person has. These three special powers are mind-body and body. The author of 'Adhyatmakalpadrum' preaches the sanvara of mind-promise-body in the fourteenth right so that these three powers do not become uncontrollable and ruin the spiritual welfare of a person. 'Sanwar' is a technical term of Jain philosophy. Which means stopping and controlling. Through various verses of this right, he presents the matter of Manasanvar-Vachansanvar-Kayasanvar in such a way that the three powers stop joining in the ominous and remain stable in the auspicious. Apart from this, he also talks about controlling kashayasamvar, i.e. angry faults, in a heartfelt manner. Come on in, take a look at these four articles:
The first point is mindfulness. As stated in the Ninth Right, the power of the mind is immense. At the same time, its opposite is to reach two conflicting ends. In that moment Kaurava can also become and in that moment Pandava can also become, in that moment Krishna can also become and in that moment Kansa can also become, in that moment Rama can also become and in that moment Ravana can also become. That is to say, when it is engaged in ugly things, it creates unimaginable depravity. The author states this persuasive verse with the illustration of Shastri explaining that: -
Mana: sanvrunam he vidvan, asvrutamna yat :,
Yati tandulmatsyo drak, saptami narkavanim.
In other words, O learned sage! You have complete control over your mind. Because Tandulmatsya, who has no control over the mind, is punished as a result of the wrong-violent thoughts of the mind, even though he has not harmed a single being by his activity. Who is this Tandulmatsya? Let us also look at the account found in the Scriptures.
This tandoori fish originates in the eyelids of giant fish-crocodiles roaming in large oceans. It is very small-about the size of a grain of rice. In Sanskrit, rice is called Tandul. This is the name given to a fish the size of a rice. Tandul Matsya. Being such a small body, it has no physical ability to characterize any of the fish in the sea. Even the life span of an incomplete one is only an intimate moment (a little less than 5 minutes). Because he does not have the physical strength to live such a short life, he cannot commit minor acts of violence.
Also. The strange thing is that since it is a noun five-sense organism, its mind-thinking power and sense power are quite 'powerful'. How many small fish-aquatic creatures enter the mouth of a large crocodile with water in their eyelids and because the big fish do not need care, these fish-aquatic creatures also go out safely. After watching this scene, the Tandulmatsya constantly thinks with intense concentration that 'this big fish is a fool. That is why Anayase carelessly lets go of these creatures that have come to swallow in the mouth. If I were in the place of that big fish, I would not let a single fish-aquatic life go back, I would hunt them all and throw them in my stomach. ' Constantly such violent thoughts are called in the terminology of scripture as Vandansubandhi Rauddhyana. As a result of this Rauddhyana, the one who does not commit direct violence against any living being, is punished at the end of Tandulmatsya's short life in the seventh hell?
The example of this Tandulmatsya clearly shows how dangerous even a two-legged thought without activity can bring if the mind is not properly controlled. That is why the author says to control the mind - control the thoughts so that they are not drawn into the inauspicious. This will prove useful in the preceding ninth right. In this right, the author concludes by saying, "I praise the sages who stabilize the mind in auspicious meditation and relieve the mind from evil choices. Do those sages seem to have passed away?"
The author now presents the promise. There is a saying for the promise that "it is up to us to create greenery or create disaster through the river of tongues flowing between the banks of the two lips." If speech is used judiciously of aptitude-aptitude, proper-improper, present, irrelevant, unreadable, etc., then it creates greenery in the life beyond itself. And if the speech is used without any such conscience, it will surely lead to disaster and loss. Speech and how many things can be related that it should be benevolent - it should be truth - it should be dear - it should be stingless - it should be adequately standardized - it should be sinless etc. The author states in this right not to utter two kinds of speech as a promise: (1) a sinful promise and (2) a promise that breaks the mind of a Sami person - a promise that creates an anti-Semitic tradition.
Sometimes we instinctively make sinful promises without intent. Such as 'If such people should be killed, their bones should be chopped off ..' Etc. Promises. Even if a person does not have a definite purpose in speaking such things. Even so, owning one is still beyond the reach of the average person. So avoid making such promises instinctively. Oops! We even say not to say words like "Cut vegetables, kill mobiles ...". Instead, use words like "vegetable repair ..., mobile tax". So that the rites of speech like killing and cutting do not get stuck in life ...
The author has written this funny verse in the context of not uttering promises that would break the minds of others and create a tradition of struggle: -
Ihamutra cha durvacho, vairaya narkaya cha,
Agnidagdhan prarohanti, Durvagdagdhan punarnhi.
In other words, the misinformation that breaks the mind of a Sami person and hurts him creates a tradition of animosity in this world, then brings the gift of hell-like misery in the hereafter. After this, in the second half of the verse, what the author says is a heart-touching thing. That is why this line of the latter half is our 'favorite'. They say that even the seeds that have been burned by fire may still germinate, but the price-relationships that have been burnt by blasphemy cannot be rekindled? Want to know what kind of irrelevant-insensitive haiyans burnt by malpractices create animosity? So read this famous incident of Mahabharata:
Duryodhana, the son of his cousin who came to see Indraprastha, the newly settled capital of the Pandavas, became enamored with the peculiarities of the place. So it happened that where there was burning, he became ridiculous by walking with the illusion of water. On this incident, Draupadi uttered a heartbreaking insult that "the son of a blind man must be blind." Delivers life.
