Padasth Dhyaan |
When one takes the support of the pure letters and performs meditation then it is known as Padasth Dhyaan. Here the main support taken is of the words because words get generated from vowels and consonants. Therefore it is also known as varna maartrukaa dhyaan. In the beginning from the center of the navel one establishes a lotus with 16 petals. And on each petal, he meditates 16 vowels in succession. These 16 vowels are: अआइईउऊऋलृएऐओऔअंअः Thereafter on the heart he establishes a lotus with 24 petals and then he meditates on following 25 consonants: क ख ग घ ङ च छ ज झ ञ ट ठ ड ढ ण त थ द ध न प फ ब भ म Then the aspirant soul imagines the third lotus in his mouth with eight petals and then imagines the remaining eight consonants: They are: य र ल व श ष स ह. In this way the aspirant soul meditates on these vowels and consonants. With this type of meditation, he now becomes the knower of the scriptural knowledge shrug gnaan. Thirty five, sixteen, six, five, four, two and one letters are manta representing five supreme beings. Aspirant soul meditates on these mantra. They are:
नमो अरिहंताणं नमो सिद्धाण नमो आयरियाणं नमो उवज्झायनम नमो लोए सव्व साहूणं 35 letters.
अहंतसिद्धाचार्यपाध्यायसर्वçसाधुभ्योनमः, अरहित सिद्ध आयरिय उवज्झाय साहू 16 letters

अ सि आ उ सा, नमो सिद्धाण —five letters
अरहित, अ सि साहू —four letters.
ॐ ह्रीं, सिद्ध, अ सि — two letters
ॐ, ओ, अ, सि one letter.
With this padasth dhyaan, one ends up knowing the eternal substances and with the worshipping of the deities he is progressing towards the liberation. He also ends up with manifestation of super sensuous knowledge.

Paksha |
, subject, wind, side, aspect, side of an argument, jo saadhya se yukt hokar hetu aadi ke dwaaraa vyakt kiyaa jaaye use paksh kahte hai,Saadhya dharma se yukt dharmi ko paksha kahate hai. Mountain is the paksha (in which fire saadhya is present) that is why mountain is called saadhya yukt dharmi , where there is presence of saadhya fire dharm. It is known as minor term (in syllogism), subject, probandum, Jisko hum prasiddh karnaa chaahte hai usko paksh kahate hai. one which we are trying to show is known as paksh. Fire is there because there is smoke. Where is the smoke.? It is on the hill. Therefore hill’s fire is subject that we want to prove. Fire is also present in the kitchen and on the hill but at present our subject paksha is hill’s fire. So we are not talking about fire present in the kitchen. We are talking the fire present on the hill. Therefore hill’s fire is the paksha. Fire itself is not paksha but the hill’ fire is our paksha. Kitchen’s fire is not our paksha in this discussion.There is presence of raag and therefore there is soul. One says that the siddh soul has no raag. For that person we can say that we are not talking about the siddh soul. We are talking about the transmigratory soul with the raag. So the transmigratory soul’s raag becomes paksha. My paksh is transmigratory soul. By saying presence of raag I am not talking about siddh soul. My paksha is transmigratory soul. jahaan dharm paayaa jaataa hai use dharmi kahate hai. Wherever attributes dharma are perceived is known as dharmi that which supports. Dharmi is known as paksha. e.g raag waalaa atma. Here the dharmi is atma and raag is dharma. One is talking about the fire on the hill and ignorant soul now starts talking about the fire in the kitchen. One is talking about the soul with bonded karma and ignorant soul ends up talking about the soul with no karma bondage at all. The nischyayaabhaasi is born in this situation. The fallacy of absolute point occurs in this situation. One must know which soul is been discussed and concentration has to be there. If the discussion is for the bonded soul then one has to understand that perspective and not to confuse with mixing up the discussion of the pure eternal soul. Its that in which the presence of probandum is not known for certain and is yet to be proved; e.g. the mountain is probandum when smoke is probans. Paksh means aashray, refuge. |

Paraavartan |
cycle of change, independence, Since time infinite the mundane soul keeps on wandering in cycle of transmigration due to wrong faith is known as paraavartan, parivartan, paribhraman, and transmigration. One which shows the transmigration is known as transmigratory souls. Cycle of change is also known as transmigration. Cycle of change is of five types:1: Cycle of matter Dravya Parivartan related to matter particles’acceptance and renunciation.
A: quasi karma cycle of matter no karma
B: Karma cycle of matter karma
2: Cycle of space Kshetra Parivartan To touch the space points of the space related cycle.
3: Cycle of time-Kaal Parivartan-cycle related to having birth and death related to the time cycle.
4: Cycle of incarnation-Bhav Parivartan-to accept birth and to die related to infernal etc realms
5: Cycle of thoughts-Bhaav Parivartan.-Having changes occurring due to passions and yog related births and deaths
(Ref: Kartikey Anuprexa gaathaa 66). Dravya Paraavartan:-Cycle of Matter:
Living being keeps on accepting karma particles like knowledge obscuring karma etc in a given samay. Thereafter he keeps on discarding those particles time to time. Similarly he also keeps on accepting quasi karma particles in a given samay and then keeps on discarding throughout the life. Now in the counting of the paraavartan, in first samay, living being accepts such material particles with their own intensity of greasiness, dryness, color, smell, taste, intense, medium or mild intentions. When this living being ends up accepting same intensity of these particles in exact same proportions and with same intensity as before then it is counted as one cycle of matter-dravya paraavaran. This living being has made infinite such cycles in the past.
Nokarma Dravya Paraavartan: Quasi karma Cycle of Matter:
One includes gross body with electric and karma bodies, and also fluid body with electric and karma body-these types of three bodies.
Also one has to include six capacity to development. They are: food particles (ahar vargana), speech particles (bhasha vargana), mind particles (mano vargana), senses particles (indriya vargana), body particles (sharir vargana), and respiratory particles (swashochchhwas vargana). They are able to give the soul the power to make a proper body and senses in their fullest form of development.
Living being accepts the material particles for these three bodies and six types of capacity to development in a given moment and again the same numbers and types of material particles with their same characteristics of touch taste smell and color are accepted in future then he has completed one quasi karma cycle of matter.
Karma Dravya Paraavartan-Karmic particles cycle of matter:
A living being accepts eight types of karma with their own characteristics. When the same living being accepts the same number of karma particles with the same characteristics of touch taste smell color etc then there is one karma dravya paraavartan. Time for the Nokarma and Karma Dravya Paraavaran is same.
Kshetra Paraavaran-Cycle of Space:
The relations with the living being’s deluded state and the space points of the space is mentioned in this cycle of space. The center eight space points of the cosmic space and center eight space points of the body of the subtle one sensed incompletely developed minimal body and with lowest possible birth-sukshma nigod mein aparyaapt sarva jaghanya sharir vaalaa aur shudra bhav ko praapt hua-are taken in to consideration. Such living being takes birth here and thereafter in sequence he takes birth in adjacent space point. When the living being finished touching all the space points
of the cosmic space then the first kshetra paraavartan is done. The living being made infinite such cycle of space in the past.
Kaal Paraavaran-cycle of time:
A time cycle is of two types: ascending and descending. Both are of ten krodaa krodi saagaaropam years. So total time cycle is of 20
Krodaa Krodi Sagaro Pam-KKSP years. When the living being takes birth in the first samay of the time cycle and in sequence finishes taking birth in total 20 KKSP years, and similarly he dies in each samay in sequence in all of the 20 KKSP years then one kaal paraavartan is done.
Bhav Paraavartan: Cycle of Incarnation:
The minimum age for infernal and celestial beings is 10,000 years and maximum is 33 saagaaropam year. Minimum age of humans and subhumans is intra indian hour-antarmuhurt to the maximum of three palya ( palya is very long period of time with the example of the ditch of one yojan long, width and deep and fill with hairs pieces of the newly born sheep and take one piece out every 100 years. Time taken is one palya). When the living being takes birth in each realm in sequence with each samay and the time taken for completion of these periods is known as one bhav paraavartan-cycle of incarnation.
Bhaav Paraavartan:-cycle of thoughts:
Karma bondage is of four types: 1. Prakruti bandh-types of karma bondage e.g. knowledge obscuring karma etc. different types, 2. Pradesh bandh-amount of karma particles bondage. 3. Anubhaag bandh-at the time of karma bondage the intensity of fruition is decided and that is anubhaag bandh 4. Sthiti bandh-at the time of karma bondage the duration is decided and that is sthiti bandh.
The prakruti and pradesh bandh are related to the vibratory activity of the space points of the soul-yog-and sthiti and anubhaag are decided by passions of the soul. Therefore yog and passions of the soul become the instrumental cause for karma bondage. Therefore yog and passions determine the four types of karma bondage. These inclinations of the soul are infinite in numbers. When soul take birth with each of these inclinations in sequential order then one cycle of thought is completed. One must remember that the order of the yog and passions have to be in sequential order starting from minimal to maximum.
Karma get bonded in four forms:
1: Prakruti-types ( e.g. knowledge obscuring etc. eight types),
2: Pradesh-amount of karma particles getting bonded,
3: Duration-how long karma will stay with the soul, (minimum time to maximum time-e.g. knowledge obscuring karma minimum time is intra indian hour and maximum is 30 krodaa krodi sagaropam)
4: Intensity at the time of fruition-anubhaag. With each of the four karma bondage types there are corresponding thought process-adhyavasaan occurring in the soul.
Soul’s vibratory activity of the space points occurring corresponding to the “types and amount” of karma bondage is known as yog sthaan.
Soul’s thought process corresponding to the duration of the karma bondage is known as Sthiti bandh adhyavashaan sthaan.
Soul’s thought process corresponding to the intensity of karma bondage is known as anubhaag bandh adhyavasaan sthaan.
For each yog sthaan there is corresponding sthiti and also anubhaag sthaan has to occur in sequence. That means there has to have permutation and combination of the three forms in the soul’s sphere has to occur. One must remember that these permutation combination has to be in sequence only. For example with first yog sthaan, there has to have corresponding first sthiti and anubhaag sthaan and thereafter sequence continues in order only.
In between time when out of sequence the thought process occurs at the time of birth of this fully developed sential five sense wrong faith living being (sangni panchendriya paryaapt jiv) is not counted. All these changes in sequence are to be observed in the sential five being livings only When one finishes these corresponding yog sthaan, sthti bandh sthaan and anubhaag bandh adhyavasaan sthaan in sequence in fully developed sential five sense wrong believer living being (sangni panchendriya paryaapt jiv) then one bhaav paraavartan is completed. In these five cycles, the cycle of thoughts is the absolute conception-nischaya-and remaining four are conventional conception-vyavahaar.These five cycles of changes are only occurring to wrong faith living being. With right faith there is no cycle of changes seen. There are so many living beings presently living as permanent status in the lowest form of life-nitya nigodh-but they have capacity for these five cycles. They have not entered all those cycles but have capacity. So with conventional usage-upchaar-they are been said to be in five cycles. There are also some living beings who have yet not accepted all the matter particles of the universe. But because of having inclination of attachment and aversion, they have capacity to accept those particles and that is why it is been said that they have accepted particles infinite times. A living being keeps on wandering in these five cycles due to his own doing. With his own inclinations he keeps on wandering.

1: From perspective of Shuddh Nishchaya Naya, it is the support for the inherent nature of pure attributes like knowledge etc. Therefore it is also known as kaaran suddh jiv-soul with causes of purity.
2: From absolute point of view the living being is living with its eternal existence,-satta, consciousness-chaitanyatva, and knowledge etc attributes. These are his vitalities-praans.
3: One who meditates-dhyaataa-has contemplations-bhaavnaa-that he is completely unobstructed-sakal niraavaran, indivisible-akhand, having oneness-ek, direct experiencing-pratyaksha pratibhaasmay, non destroyable-avinashvar, of pure inherent nature-shuddh paarinaamic, having supreme virtues-param bhaav lakshanwaalaa, and I my self is god. I am not having any fragmentation of knowledge.

They are six in numbers:
1. Food power (Aahaar paryaapti)-the soul has the capacity to act as an instrumental cause in collecting food particles in the form of large quantities around the soul and also to liquify them.

He imagines that the flame burns these eight karma.Then it burns the body and rest of the lotus and thereafter it become quiet now. This is Aagneyi Dhaaranaa.
3: Maaruti (Vaayavi) Dhaaranaa: Now he thinks about the major stormy cyclone which has made the ocean greatly disturbed. The storm which had burnt the lotus and the body takes away the ashes. Now this storm becomes quiet. With this episode the aspirant soul now meditates on mystic syllable of “So-yam” “સોઙયમ”
4: Vaaruni Dhaaranaa: In this concept the aspirant sul meditates up on the cloud with nectar type of rain. He thinks about this type of sky full of rainbow as well as thunder.

5: Tatva Rupvati Dhaaranaa: Here aspirant soul meditates on the nature of the pure soul devoid of any matter attached to it. He now meditates on the pure nature of the soul with all its grandeur. In short, there is waking up of all the strength of the soul and as a result the out side negative forces come under control.

|
Pramaan gnaan |
right knowledge means determination of nature of a substance. A pramaan takes the whole of real as its subject matter, the knowledge of reality which enlightens the whole of it simultaneously is the pramaan. nayas are the part of pramaan, total comprehension of reality is the knowledge of pramaan type. A pramaan has different taste (essence) from aggregate of nayas, ( panchastikaya verse 675). The negation is preceded by affirmation and vice versa. The knowledge which comprehends the union of these two is the pramaan (panchastikaya verse 665). Acharya Akalanka defines pramaan as follow: its the nature to reveal itself as well as its object. and there is harmony as the true mark of cognition. by which, a substance is getting known is known as pramaan.(Kashay Paahud, JayDhavala book 1, chapter1, stanza 27,)
Praman definition: According to Pariksha Mukh Shastra: स्वपूर्वार्थ व्यवशायात्मकम ज्ञानं प्रमाणं
अपना और अपूर्वार्थका निश्चयात्मक ज्ञान प्रमाण कहलाता है
श्री माणिक्यनंदि स्वाम Chapter 1, sutra 1. Pariksha Mukh.
According to Pariksha Mukh, The comprehensive knowledge consists of five things:
1: One should know the self in detail, then only he can know the alien things-
SWA. If one does not know the self then he does not
know the alien things. So to know the other universal substances it is prerogative that he knows the self first. Then only he can know the alien substances of the universe in their real form. Knowledge has swa par prakaashak swabhaav. Knowledge has nature of knowing the self and alien things. Therefore to start knowing, one has to know the self. The knowledge of self is right knowledge-samyag gnaan.
When one directs his attention to the self then he experiences the self and this is swa vyavashaay-determined knowledge of the self. Word Swa refutes the Mimaansak who believe knowledge is
always indirect in nature. It also refutes Naiyaayik theory of knowledge occurs due to other knowledge-kaarak saakalya
and also of Vaisheshik philosophy of believing in saanikarshvaad-anya gnaan se use graahak maanane waale Naiyaayiko ke kaarak saakalya aur Vaishashiko kaa sannikarshvaad kaa khandan kartaa hai.
2,3: The thing for which there was never been any determination with true knowledge in the past is called APURVAARTH. The thing has to be unprecedented. APURVAARTH-It should be always new in nature. ARTH means it should be present in the universe. It has to be a real substances in the universe-ARTH.
a:The thing which was not known before and now is known is known as knowledge of
unprecedented thing-apurvaarth.
b:The continuous contemplation of knowledge makes object of knowledge as one thing only and
therefore it is not unprecedented knowledge. Dhaaraaavaahik gnaan ek hi vastu ko vishay banaataa hai, is liye vah apurvaarth nathi kahaa jaataa. This type of continuous contemplation of knowledge-dhaaraavaahik gnaan-does not help in fruition, in the form of removal of the wrong knowledge.-Dhaaraavaahik gnaan mein agnaan ki nirvrutti rup koi phal nahi paayaa jaataa hai.
c:The thing which was known in the past but now there is doubt, illusion or indecision about this thing, then also this knowledge is known as unprecedented knowledge-purva mein jaane
hue padaarth mein yadi samaarop arthaat sansay, viparyay aur anadhyavasaan hotaa hai to padaarth apurvaarth ban jaataa hai. For example, one
sees something and has doubt, or illusion or indecision about it. He can not make determination whether it is snake or the rope.
This knowledge is known as apurvaarth, unprecedented knowledge as there is doubt, illusion and indecision. One can have doubt about body and soul. Whether they are
different or the same entity. This is also known as unprecedented knowledge. Even though he may be end up believing wrong way about soul and body to be one only, still it can be said that it is unprecedented knowledge.
d: From self perspective-swarup se-or with characteristic form-vishesh rup se-if something is not specific-nischit-then that object is known to be unprecedented one.-swarup se athavaa vishesh rup se jo nischit nahi hai vah sampurn padaarth apurvaarth hai. If one has knowledge of tree but now he knows that this is mango tree. Then this additional knowledge i.e. specific knowledge-vishesh gnaan is known as apurvaarth.
The question comes that Arihant and Siddha have Omniscient knowledge and knows every thing of the universe in one moment then where is the new thing in next mode? From time perspective-kaal apexa-He knows that the present mode become past and
the future mode becomes present in next moment. This is His newness of knowledge.
Word Apurva refutes the dhaaraavaahi gnaan. It refutes the belief of gruhit graahi dhaaraavaahi gnaan ki pramaantaa-acquired form of same knowledge keeps on coming again and again.
Arth means the substance which is present in the universe. One can not have knowledge which does not exist in universe e.g the flowers blooming in the sky or the
horn of donkey etc. They are apruva-unprecedented but it has to be a thing in universe too. If it is not present in universe then it is not called arth.
Arth refutes the Vignaan Adwaitvaad and Chitraa
Adwaitvaad.
Mimansaa darshan has one branch called Prabhaakar. In every way they believe apurvaarth is only the subject of valid knowledge-sarvathaa apurvaarth ko hi pramaan kaa vishay maante hai. Above paragraph refutes that belief. In Jain philosophy in valid knowledge they believe apurvaarth from certain point of view.-Jain darshan ke pramaan vishaya mein kathanchit apurvaarthtaa swikrut hai.
4: The knowledge has to be judgmental. The knowledge has to have capacity for judgement-VYAVASHAAYAATMAK. It is also known as nischyaatmak gnaan.
Wrong believer also has knowledge and he also knows the universal substances but his judgement is wrong. He believes the rope to be the snake. This is apurvaarth-unprecedented knowledge-as there is doubt, illusion and indecision present. But, this is wrong judgement on his part. There is unprecedented knowledge-apurvaarth-but there is no right judgment-no vyavashaayatmak gnaan, it is known as non judgmental knowledge. To know the presence of snake in a rope is unprecedented knowledge-apurvaarth, but it is non judgmental knowledge-anischayaatmak gnaan, avyavashaayatmak gnaan. One has to have correct judgment-vyavashaayatmak-about the knowledge. Therefore the judgmental knowledge-vyavashaayatmak gnaan-has to be with no doubt, illusion or indecision. That
is why it is pramaan gnaan. In non judgmental knowledge-avyavashaayatma gnaan-he believes the body to be the soul. Even the Omniscient lords told him that the body and soul are two different things but his judgement regarding body and soul to be the same is very strong judgement even though it is wrong. So the knowledge which is apurva and has arth (knowledge with doubt, illusion and indecision) to it,
has to be judgmental-vyavashaayatmak-too. Otherwise it is not valid knowledge-pramaan gnaan.
Is it rope or snake, is body and soul are different or same? One has to have judgment regarding these facts. Wrong believer has apurva knowledge of the substance of the universe but has wrong judgmental knowledge. He does have judgment but is wrong one. He believes the rope to be snake and body and soul to be the same. So the judgmental knowledge will rightfully know that the snake is not rope or vice versa. He will have judgmental knowledge that body
and soul are two separate entities.
Wrong believer’s knowledge is with doubt-sansay, viparyay illusion and with indecision-anadhyavashaay. Therefore his knowledge is not judgmental.
Buddhisht philosophy believes that the inference-anumaan-is the reason for making determination of an object and believes that the direct knowledge-pratyaksh is non judgmental-pratyaksha ko nirvikalpa yaani anischayaatmak maante hai. They believe that when the liberation occurs
then there is no knowledge. As the knowledge is with reflective thoughts, there is absence of reflective thoughts in liberation. There is no knowledge so there is no reflective thoughts. They believe that in liberation there is no thought process. There is nirvikalpataa only. Jain philosophy believes that all the parts of comprehensive knowledge is the reason for making judgment for knowledge of self and others-sarva pramaan ko swa aur par kaa nischya karne waalaa maanaa hai. According to Jains, there is presence of knowledge forever in liberation state. This knowledge is with its abstraction property-vikalpaatmak panu-.
(Ref: personal swadhyay with Pandit Yogeshji, the author of
Pariksha mukh book, Aliganj, India)
Therefore Vyavashaayaatmak word refutes the nirvikalpavaad-anischayaatmak-of Buddhisht.
5: The capacity for judgement occurs only in the knowledge. That is why knowledge-GNAAN is in itself the basis for integrity-honesty-Gnaan hi praamaaniktaa kaa aadhaar honaa chaahiye. The use of word “Gnaan” refutes the sannikarsh belief of Naiyaayik and kaarak saakalyavaad of Vaisheshiks. With knowledge one gets happiness and removes his misery and that is why knowledge is considered as pramaan-comprehensive knowledge. The removal of unhappiness is not the work of the knowledge attribute. It simply knows the nature of happiness or misery. The endurance of the feeling occurs in the conduct attribute-chaaritra guna.
The knowledge which knows the object without sanshay (doubt-e.g. doubt about silver and shell.), viparyay (illusion e.g to think that shell is silver.) and anandhyavashaay (uncertainty, inconclusiveness e.g. to know whether he is touching the grass while walking.)-(ref: parisksha
mukh sutra 2) is known as pramaan gnaan (pariksha mukh sutra 2)
To know a substance the associated knowledge is known as pramaan gnaan. (darshan shastra definition, epistemology perspective)
Position of knowledge-gnaan pad-is given here to refute ignorance type of sannikarsh and kaarak saakalya and also to have knowledge occurring due to senses. Sannikarsh means knowledge occurring with association of physical senses and objects only.
Pramaan means with which there occurs authentic knowledge
( pramiti).
Pramaan gnaan is of two types:
1:Pratyaksha-direct cognition
2:parox-indirect cognition
Pratyaksha pramaan-The knowledge which has clarity is known as direct cognition. One is acquiring direct knowledge with the support of one’s own soul i.e. atma na asraye. The knowledge which is clear, pure and transparent is known as pratyaksha pramaan. Vishad gnaan ne pramaan gnaan kahe chhe. The direct knowledge’s
purity can be known with experience only. Pratyaksha pramaan ki nirmaltaa anubhav se jaani jaati hai. Over here word “vishad” is used to refute Buddhism philosophy which believes that the direct knowledge can also be unclear-aspasht or avishad in nature. The word “vishad” is also used to make sure one does not include knowledge occurring with senses and light-indriya ane prakaash. Characteristics of pratyaksha pramaan: (According to Akalakdev): The knowledge is clear-vishad and it is without following three faults like:
1:Non comprehensive fault-Avyapti.
2:The fault of Including what is not intended to be included within a proposition-Ativyapti, and.
3: An improbable fault-Ashambhav.
During soul’s self experience all the reflective thoughts about valid knowledge, partial point of view and analysis of truth-pramaan, naya and nikshepa disappear. Atmaanubhti ke samay par pramaan, naya nikshepa ke vikalpa kaa vishraam hotaa hai.
Pratyaksha Pramaan gnaan has two divisions:
1: Saamvyavahaarik Pratyaksha Pramaan-direct knowledge in conventional sense:
One which knows a thing clearly but partially with the help of senses and mind is known as saamvyavahaarik pratyaksha gnaan. For example, I did see clearly that person with my own eyes.
Over here one must not include knowledge occurring due to a matter or the light. Because they are the object of knowledge and can not be the reason for knowledge. The matter can not be the reason for knowledge as they both do not have positive and negative concomitance-anvay vyatirek sambandh. smoke is there because there is fire-anvay-positive concomitance-and there is no fire and therefore there is no smoke-vyatirek-negative concomitance. An object does not have positive or negative concomitance with other object then it can not be its reason-jiskaa jiske saath anvay vyatirek sambandh nahi hota hai, vah uskaa kaaran nahi hotaa hai.
There are hairs on the top of the head but one does not have knowledge for it and there is no mosquito on the hair but when there is wind blowing, one thinks of mosquito on his hair. This example is the example of absence of positive and negative concomitance-anyavy vyatirek kaa abhaav. Therefore object can not be the reason for knowledge.
Similar way, during day light, owl cannot see and during night time in dark, he can have knowledge. This also proves that the light is not the reason for knowledge.
Furthermore, if matter is the reason for the knowledge then when that matter is not present then knowledge should not happen. But that is not the case. In the same token if light is the reason for knowledge then in darkness at night no one should have any knowledge. But this is not true, as there is knowledge that here is darkness. So with these two examples, one can definitely say that matter-object and light can not be the reason for knowledge. Yes, they could be the object of knowledge, but one certainly can not say that knowledge occurs due to matter-object or with light. Knowledge does not occur due to a thing but still the knowledge illuminates the thing just like the lamp illuminates the objects.
The direct knowledge in conventional sense-saamvyavaahaarik pratyaksha gnaan-is part of cognitive knowledge-mati gnaan. Mati gnaan by itself is considered as indirect knowledge as there is need or senses and mind.
The knowledge occurs due to self and not due to object. This fact refutes the theory of Buddhisht who believe that the knowledge occurs only due to presence of object.
2:Paarmarthic pratyaksha-transcendental knowledge:
One, which knows the thing, clearly, without any help from instrumental cause is known as paarmaarthic pratyaksha. For example, clairvoyance, telepathy and omniscient knowledge. The clairvoyance and telepathy knowledge are known as partial transcendental knowledge-vikal pratyaksha and omniscient knowledge is known as perfect transcendental knowledge.-sakal pratyaksha.
Any knowledge if having obstruction like knowledge obscuring karma then there is limitation. Furthermore when knowledge is dependent on physical senses then there is also limitation due to capacity of the sense organ only. Therefore this type of knowledge is called indirect. Direct knowledge is super sensuous and is without any obstruction.
Parox Pramaan-indirect knowledge:
For benefiting the self, the knowledge takes help from other knowledges then it is known as parox pramaan-indirect knowledge.
Indirect Knowledge-paroksha pramaan:
Knowledge obtained with the help of senses and mind is known as indirect knowledge.
The knowledge in which there are direct knowledge etc are instrumental cause is known as indirect knowledge. This indirect knowledge keeps expectation from preceding valid knowledges.-Parox pramaan apni utpatti mein purva varti pramaan gnaano ki apexaa rakhte hai.
Prior to memory (smaran), there is retention of knowledge of an object (pratyaksha gnaan) is present. Therefore direct knowledge is the instrumental cause for memory.
In recognition type of indirect knowledge ( pratyabhi gnaan) there is need for direct knowledge as well as memory. Because the object which was seen before, comes in memory and then one decides that definitely that is the same object seen before. This is recognition knowledge-pratyabhi gnaan.
In logic (tark) there is need for direct knowledge, memory and recognition. As the teacher saw the smoke in the mountain, he told his student that does he remember the smoke associated with the fire in the kitchen? By listening this, the student remembers the smoke and fire in the kitchen. He then tells the teacher that definitely he remembers the smoke and fire in the kitchen. And this smoke on the mountain is the same. In this example, first there is direct knowledge of the smoke on the mountain occurred. Thereafter he had memory of the smoke from kitchen. Then he recognized the similarity of the smoke of mountain and kitchen (saadrashya pratyabhi gnaan). Then he makes decision that wherever there is smoke there has to have presence of fire. This is called logic. So here direct knowledge, memory and recognition all three are needed. After this logical knowledge he draws the inference ( anumaan) on the mountain, there has to have fire present. In this inferential knowledge there is presence of logic etc all four prior knowledges. In scriptural knowledge there is presence of word and one comes to conclusion that this is the meaning of the word. Memory is also present. Therefore in these five indirect knowledges keep expectation from preceding valid knowledges.-Pancho parox pramaan apni utpatti mein purva varti pramaan gnaano ki apexaa rakhte hai. There are five divisions of this paroksha gnaan:
1: Memory,-smaran,
2: recognition-pratyabhignaan,
3: logic-tark,
4: inference-anumaan and
5: scripture-aagam.
1: Memory-smaran: Smruti:The knowledge which occurs from manifestation from faculty of recollection from past is known as memory.-sanskaar ki pragataa se hone waale gnaan ko smaran kahate hai.
Thing which was known in the past and now one remembers it, is known as memory. The direct knowledge is the instrumental cause for memory, as there is need for retention of known object-dhaaranaa gnaan is prerequisite for memory. Therefore the direct knowledge is the instrumental cause for memory. For example, I knew Devdatt from before and now I remember the same person. This is memory. Memory illuminates the past experience as its subject.
2: Recognition-pratyabhi gnaan:With the illustration one makes decision about a thing. For example, by seeing a thing in present time, he says that this is the same thing that I had seen in the past. To connect memory with the present thing is known as recognition-pratyabhi gnaan. For recognition, one has to have need for memory and direct knowledge. There are five parts to it.
1: ekatva-oneness: This is same as before. This has to be Devdatt only
2: Saadrashya-similar: this is similar to one I knew before. The roz is similar as cow.
3: Vilakshan: different: this is different than what I knew from before. This buffalo is different than cow.
4: Prati yogi-counterpart: by looking at a some thing nearer, one makes determination that the other substance is away from this thing is the example of prati yogi pratyabhi gnaan.
5:-saamaanya pratyabhi gnaan: general nature of recognition By looking at a tree, one remembers the general nature of the tree and now he ends up knowing that this is the tree. In the recognition-pratyabhignaan-there is experience and this experience makes the present mode as its subject. Jain philosophy is only the one which accepts recognition knowledge-pratyabhi gnaan as part of comprehensive knowledge-pramaan gnaan. Buddisht etc philosophies do not believe in recognition knowledge as part of comprehensive knowledge.
3: Logic-Tark-Vyaapti gnaan:
It means deliberation on an unknown thing to discern its real nature. It consists of seeking reasons in support of some supposition to the exclusion of other suppositions. It is employed whenever a doubt is present about the specific nature of anything. By looking at a sign, one says that “over here the thing with the same sign has to present”. To achieve a thing-saadhya-remedy for achieving-saadhan-is required. The remedy-saadhan-is not there if there is nothing to achieve-Saadhan rup vastu saadhy rup vastu hovaa thi j hoy chhe. Saadhya rup vastu nahi hova thi saadhan rup vastu pan nathi hoti. For example for presence of smoke presence of fire is essential and if there is no fire then there is no smoke. By seeing smoke one knows that fire has to be here. Where there is no fire, there is no smoke. For logic, one needs help of direct knowledge, memory and recognition. Tark is also known as vyaapti gnaan-invariable concomitance, universal pervasion between middle term and major term. For example: a student and teacher are walking and saw smoke coming from mountain. Teacher tells student, that “do you remember, that in your kitchen when there is smoke there is always fire present?” The student remembers that event. And then he says, “yes, sir, this smoke in the mountain is the same type.” In this example, first there was smoke seen directly in his kitchen. Then he remembers it and then he recognizes it to be the same kind- saadrashya pratyabhi gnaan. Thereafter he makes determination that wherever there is smoke, there is fire, because without fire there is no smoke. This is known as vyaapti gnaan or tark or logic. (vyaapti gnaan means from a specific experience one refers to the general thing). Vyaapti ke gnaan ko tark kahate hai. Vyaapti means inherent relationship. e.g. Fire and smoke have inherent relationship. While fire and pot do not have inherent relation. Vyaapti gnaan means invariable concomitance, universal pervasion between middle term and major term. The exquisite efficiency-saadhaktam-for removing the wrong knowledge regarding the means-saadhan-and the object to be achieved-saadhya-is known as tark. Saadhya ane saadhan sambandh vishayak agnaan ne dur karvaa rup phal maa je saadhaktam chhe tene tark kahe chhe. (Nyay dipika pagee 180)
The knowledge which shows the inherent relationship with two things for all the time and in all area-sarva kaal ane sarva desh-is known as tark. In tark, one makes association of saadhan-the means to achieve a thing-with saadhya-things to be achieved. This inherent relationship is known as “tark”-logic. Smoke is seen, then fire has to be there. This is anvay-positive concomitance. If there is no fire, there is no smoke. This is negative concomitance-vyatirek. The instrumental cause for vyaapti gnaan is positive and negative concomitance-vyaapti gnaan kaa nimitt anvay vyatirek maanaa gayaa hai. Avinaabhaav sambandh ko vyaapti bolte hai. Wherever there is inherent relationship, is known as vyaapti-
contemporaneity, invariable concomitance, universal pervasion between middle term and major term.
What is avinaabhaavi sambandh-inherent relationship?
It is present when some thing else is present and some thing else is not present then it is not present. This is inherent relation. For example, wherever there is smoke there is fire and when fire is absent then smoke is absent. Therefore the smoke and fire have avinaabhaavi sambandh-inherent relationship. The knowledge of the inherent relationship-vyaapti ka gnaan-is tark-logic. Saadhya kaa saadhan ke saath jo avinaabhaavi ho, vah gnaan ko vyaapti gnaan kahete hai aur usko tark kahate hai. Fire is the saadhya and smoke is the saadhan. Wherever there is raag there is atmaa. Wherever there is no aatmaa then there is no raag seen. Over here raag has vyaapti with atmaa. Atmaa does not have vyaapti with raag. Smoke has vyaapti-inherent relationship-with the fire. Fire does not have vyaapti with smoke. Fire can be there without smoke too. Soul can be there without raag too. Raag has anvya vyaapti-positive concomitance-with soul. Soul has vyatirek vyaapti-negative concomitance with raag. Where there is no soul, there is no raag. The knowledge of positive and negative concomitance is known as vyaapti gnaan-tark-logic.-Anvay aur vyatirek vyaapti ke gnaan ko tark kahte hai. In Indian philosophy, Jain philosophy is only the one which accepts logic-tark as part of comprehensive knowledge. Because except for logic, there is nothing which can prove the inherent relationship. And logic is only the one which can prove inherent relationship.Therefore one has to accept logic as one of the comprehensive knowledges.-tark ke sivaay pratyakshaadi kisi bhi pramaan se vyaapti kaa nirnay nahi ho saktaa. Tark vyaapti kaa nirnay karne mein purnatah samarth hai. Is liye tark ko pramaan rup mein swikaar karanaa hi padegaa.
4: Inference-Anumaan: Seeing the attributes, one makes the decision about the substance. For example, wherever is knowledge, there is soul. There is fire because there is smoke present. On seeing the smoke on the mountain, now the student makes inference that there should be fire. Therefore in inference-anumaan-one needs direct knowledge, memory, recognition and logic. The knowledge of the things to be achieved (saadhya) occurs with the knowledge of the means present (saadhan), is known as inferential knowledge (anumaan gnaan). Saadhan thi thavaa vaalaa saadhya naa gnaan ne anuman kahe chhe. Smoke is the saadhan and with that one knows the saadhya fire. This is inferential knowledge-anumaan gnaan. Spiritual discipline-saadhan has inherent relationship with the liberation asultimate goal to achieve. This ultimate goal-saadhya-is with three characteristics of :Isht-Beneficial. The thing in which the proponent wants to prove is known as isht-beneficial. If proponent does not want to prove it then it is non beneficial thing. Student needs to understand that there is presence of fire on the hill. The fire is asiddh to him. If one believes anisht as saadhya then there is the fault of taking too much liberty beyond intimacy. anisht ne saadhya maane to atiprasang no dosh aave chhe.
In Nyaay dipikaa it is also called abhipret. Abhipret means meant, intended; desired, wished; accepted, approved. It means that it is desirable for proponent to prove. Abhipret vah hai jo vaadi ko siddh karane ke liye abhimat hai. One has to know that the saadhya is isht means beneficial to him. For example, questioner says that he wants to know rose flower. The teacher also knows rose flower. so rose flower is isht for vaadi-. Soul’s inherent nature is super sensuous bliss. This is the fact accepted by proponent. Therefore it is isht to him. To believe the soul to be always permanent-sarvathaa nityapanaa-in nature is not beneficial to Jains. That means it is anisht-non beneficial. :Asiddh-Unestablished reason. The thing which is yet not been proven by any valid knowledge is known as asiddh-unestablished reason. When there is
presence of doubt, illusion and indecision ( sanshay viparyay and anadhyavashaay), then only a thing needs to be proven. If there is no doubt, illusion or indecision about the thing then it does not need to be proven. It is self proven thing. This is the nature of word asiddh. Sansay, viparyay aur anadhyavashay padartho ki saadhyataa saabit karne ke liye saadhya ke lakshan mein asiddh pad diyaa gayaa hai.-to prove a substance in which there is suspicion, indecision and inconclusiveness present then to prove the substance there is asiddh characteristics inserted in saadhya. If one believes accomplished thing-prasiddh-, to be saadhya then inference will be useless. Because for accomplishing the achievable thing, one does inference. So prasiddh is the fault.-kaaran ke saadhya ni siddhi maate anumaan karvaamaa aave chhe. So for saadhya, the asiddh unestablished reasoning is the characteristic. The thing is asiddh-unproved-for questioner-prati vaaadi-but it is siddh-accomplished, fully understood-for the person who is answering- vaaadi (speaker).. Prativaadi (listner) is confused and wants to remove his confusion. The teacher-vaadi-has already removed his own confusion. So this is characteristics of asiddh.-unestablished reason. The thing which is asiddh to one, can be explained with the help of tark and anumaan-logic and inference. Because it is siddh to teacher, but is not
siddh to the student. So he can be explained with tark and anumaan. He needs to have inference that there is fire on the hill. The fire is asiddh to the student. The teacher explains to him about the inherent relationship of fire and smoke. Now as there is smoke on the hill that means the fire has to be present. Student ends up using this logic and makes his own inference of presence of fire on the hill. In Nyaay Dipikaa it is also known as aprasiddh-unknown. Aprasiddh voh hai jo sandehaadik se yukt hone se anischit hai-The thing is unknown when there is uncertainty due to suspicious etc types of faults. (sansay, viparyay and anandhyavashaay types of faults.) If the saadhya is considered siddh-proven, then there is nothing to prove. So the saadhya has to be asiddh-not proven, not obtained. Jo prasiddh ko saadhya maanaa jaay to anumaan vyarth ho jaayegaa, kyoki saadhya ki siddhi ke liye anumaan kiyaa jaataa hai. If one thinks that the thing which is published is to be achieved then there will be no need for inference, as the inference is used only for fulfillment of the things to be achieved.:Abaadhit-Non contradicted-The thing can be proven as it is unimpeded from direct etc valid knowledges. This is the non contradicted property of saadhya-things to be proven. pratyakshaadik pramaan thi abadhit hovaathi siddh thai shake chhe (baadhit padartho no saadhya panaa ma nishedh karva maate) te abaadhit lakshan chhe. For example, one can not prove the flowers blooming in the space or the horn of donkey. These facts can not be proven. These facts can be impeded by valid type of knowledges. If one says that soul’s inherent nature is with misery and prove it. Then the teacher will say that it is not possible. Because there is no misery in the inherent nature of the soul. This fact of soul having misery as its inherent nature is contradicted from conventional wisdom. Soul is having eternal inherent nature of super sensuous bliss. So soul having inherent nature of misery fact is inappropriate, inconsistent-baadhit. Therefore it can not be proven. The fact which needs to be proven has to be non contradicted from conventional wisdom. If soul has misery as its own true nature then why will he be trying to be misery free? Therefore soul’s inherent nature is never been misery. It is always with super sensuous bliss. They are not baadhit-contradicted from pratyaksha etc pramaans-any valid knowledge.. One which can be proven by having it to be impeded from direct etc pramaan gnaan is called abaadhit. If one believes that obstructiveness is also the nature of saadhya then one has to believe the non warmth also to be the characteristics of fire. But it is not true. So abaadhit is the nature of the saadhya.
The rose flower is also pratyaksha pramaanaadi se abaadhit hai. The rose flower is the fact which is without any contradiction from valid knowledge. So it is abaadhit and this is one of the three characteristics of the saadhya. Rose flower is not lok viruddh.-it is not against the conventional wisdom. It is generally known thing in the population. Ref: Nyay dipika third section page 185 hindi, Pariksha mukh page 49 gatha 17-18. According to Nyaay dipikaa, Abaadhit is also called shakya. One which can be proven without any inconsistency with valid type of knowledges-pramaanaadik gnaan-is called shakya.-possible. Yadi ashakya (baadhit) ko saadhya maanaa jaay to agni mein anushnataa aadi bhi saadhya ho jaayegi. If one takes inconsistency (baadhit) as the things to be achieved then one will end up accepting coolness (anushnataa) as the characteristics of fire. Saadhya has to be non bonded with anything else. It does not have to have any dependency on any thing else.
To believe the words have nature of inaudibility is directly contradicted-shabd ko ashraavanatva maannaa prayaksha baadhit hai.
Words to be considered as permanent is inferentially contradicted-shabd ko nitya maannaa anumaan baadhit hai.
The righteous nature to be considered as producing misery in next life is scripturally contradicted-dharma ko parlok mein dukdaayi maannaa aagam baadhit hai. To say that “My mother is infertile woman” is self spoken words contradictoriness.-meri maataa vandhyaa hai eisaa kahnaa swa vachan baadhit hai.If above three things are not understood then there are three faults as follow:
1: Anisht-non beneficial-it will give atiprasang dosh. fault of taking too much liberty beyond intimacy.
2: Prasiddh-manifested thing-anumaan vyarth ho jaayegaa. Inference will be useless.
3: Baadhit-inappropriate, inconsistent-Agni mein anushnataa aadi kaa dosh aayegaa-in the fire non warmth etc faults will occur. Above three are saadhyaabhaas.-fallacy for things to be achieved. Because with these three fallacies can not become the subject of instrument for achieving ultimate goal. Ref: Nyaay dipika and Pariksha mukh. From a sign-ling-one ends up knowing the one which is having a sign-lingi. From knowing smoke( ling) one knows the fire (lingi). This is inference-anumaan. For all practical purpose th |

Pramaanaabhaas |
with wrong knowledge one can not make determination of a nature of a substance is known as pramaanaabhaas, pseudo organ of knowledge Pramaanaabhaas Fallacy of comprehensive knowledge: This definition of comprehensive knowledge has five parts to it: Swa knowledge of the self. Apurvaarth-unprecedented knowledge of the substances present in the universe. Vyavashaayatmak-knowledge has to be judgmental. Gnaan-knowledge GNAAN is in itself the basis for integrity-honesty-Gnaan hi praamaaniktaa kaa aadhaar honaa chaahiye.Anything against this definition is fallacy of comprehensive knowledge. So the fallacy of comprehensive knowledge is:
1: The knowledge which does not know the self is non self experienced knowledge-aswasamvidit. This knowledge does not make determination of the self.
2: The knowledge which was known in genuine form-yathaarth gnaan-in the past and now to know the same knowledge again is known as perceived knowledge-gruhit gnaan. In this knowledge, there is no removal of ignorance and therefore it is fallacy of the comprehensive knowledge. Therefore continuous contemplation of knowledge-dhaaraavaahik gnaan is fallacy of comprehensive knowledge.
3:The knowledge with abstraction-vikalpaatmak gnaan is part of the comprehensive knowledge. When one believes-like Buddhist-that in liberated state there is absence of knowledge and that is why there is absence of abstraction-vikalpa, then it is the fallacy of comprehensive knowledge. Absence of abstraction-nirvikalpataa-is the fallacy of comprehensive knowledge. Nature of the knowledge is always with abstraction.
4: From certain perspectives even the knowledge with doubt, illusion and indecision is known as unprecedented knowledge-apurvaarth, but is not the judgmental knowledge-avyayashaayatmak gnaan. In judgmental knowledge-vyavashaayatmak gnaan-there is no doubt, illusion or indecision. Therefore knowledge with doubt, illusion and indecision is the fallacy of the comprehensive knowledge. |
