Thyaga/ three sacrifices – Ashtaguna of Jjani
The opponent of Dhama/self-control
Sage Santhkumara speaks “ Oh! Rajan, lack of Dhama/self- control is the togetherness of Ashtadhashadhosha/eight types of impurities, the learned say
the practice of Dhama is free from eighteen types of impurities known as
1)Anritham/falsehood and spreading rumors 2)Paishunam/wickedness 3) Thrishna/desire
4) Prathikoolyam/disagreement 5) Thamas/ignorance 6) Arathi/envy 7)
Lokadhvesham/ spreading hatred in the society and among the people 8) Abhimanam/pride
9)Vivadha/dispute 10) Pranipeedanam/cruelty to animals to satiate one’s own
desire 11) Parivadham/reproach, criticism 12) Athivadham/ usage of abusive
language 13) Parithapam/repentance, guilt 14) Akshama/impatience and inability
to face grief or happiness 15) Adhrithi/lack of control over sense 16) Asidhdhi/failure
17) Papakrithyam /sinful deeds 18) Himsa/harmful deeds. The learned and wise affirms
that the practice of good self- control protects the Jeeva from the above-said
impurities.”
The impurities of the Madha/arrogance and
pride
Sage Sanathkumara speaks “ Oh! Rajan, the
Jeeva who have no control over haughtiness do not get freed from the above-said
eighteen impurities/afflictions, that are the major obstacles in achieving the
knowledge of all-pervasive Bhramam. The learned recommends the practice of 1)
Truthfulness 2) Apaishuna/honesty 3) Athrishna/free from desires 4) Aprathikoolya/lack
of stubbornness 5) Athamass/pure knowledge 6) Arathi/free from the chase of
sensual pleasure 7) Lokadhvesham/free from creating unrest in the society 8)
Lack of pride 9) Avivadha/free from arguments and conflicts 10)Apranihimsa/abstain
from killing lives 11) Aparivadham/free from repentance 12) Anathivadham/ free
from unnecessary arguments 13) Aparithapam/ free from depression 14)Kshama
/patience 15) Dhrithi/courage 16) Siddhi / understanding 17) Apapakrithyam/abstain
from sinful deeds and 18) Ahimsa/ practice of non-violence would protect the
Jeeva from the constant grief and miseries of worldly existence.”
Thrividha Thyaga/ three sacrifices
Sage Sanathkumara speaks “ Oh! Rajan, the practice of six types of Thyaga would bring Shreyas/fortune to the Jeeva, and
the three of them are extremely difficult to practice. The practice of these six types of Thagya
would remove the miseries; as a result, the Jeeva would win over from the
afflictions of the Adhyathmika, Adhibhauthika, and Adhidheivika. Oh! Rajan, 1) Give
away children and wealth as a charity to a deserving person is the Prathamathyaga/the
first and foremost Thyaga. 2) Ishtapoorththam/
sacrifice the fruitful results of spiritual and religious rites performed and
surrender to the supreme Lord, perform all the deeds as Eshwaraththa, is the
Dhvitheeyathyaga/second Thyaga, and perform all the Shrautha and Smarththa Karma
as Eashwaraththa, it would please the deities and Pithrus 3) the third one is Kamathyaga/practice of
Virakthi/ abandon interest in interest in worldly matters and bondage. The
person who strictly follows these three Thyaga is Apramadhi/learned, wise, /which
is one of the Ashtaguna.”
Ashtaguna of Jjani –
Sage Sanathkumara speaks “ Oh! Rajendra
I shall describe the eight virtues of a Jjani 1) Sathyam/truthfulness – speak truth
and follow truthfulness in all the deeds 2) Dhyanam/meditation – the practice
of constant meditation would purify the intellect, it removes the impurities
like Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Madha and Mathshcharya 3) Samadhana/ be determined
and practice the religious and spiritual rite to achieve that all-pervasive
supreme Bhramam 4) Chodhya/curious to
learn, who am I? Where did I come from? Whom do I belong to? 5) Vairagyam/abandonment
– The practice of renunciation of objects seen and subjects heard of worldly
matters 6) Astheya/no stealing 7)
Bhramacharyam/observance of celibacy – the practice of abstaining from eight
types of Kamakeli/Maithuna such as Smaranam/constant remembrance, Keerthanam/finding
pleasure in repeating, Keli/amorous sport, Veekshanam/eye contacts, Guhyabhashanam/secret
talks, Sankalpam/determination, Adhyavasaya/clinging on to the subject,
Kriyanishpaththi/physical pleasure and last but not the least 8) Asamgraha/abstain
from begging, refusing favors from the Puthrapauthra. Oh! Rajan, I have
narrated the impurities of lack of self-control/ Dhama, should be abandoned,
the practice of Dhama/self-control is Apramadha with eight kinds of virtues.”
