________________ Conclusion This should be kept in mind, because there prevails much misunderstanding about it. Some people have the tendency to underrate the importance of Nimitta. They contend that Upädän is the only real cause; when something is going to happen, Nimitta is bound to be there. Actually both of them are equally essential. For instance, the earth may be lying somewhere for millions of years, but it does not turn into a pot, until some one picks it up, cultivates it by mixing it with water, and puts it on a turning wheel. Similarly in spite of the potential to attain liberation, the worldly souls have been wandering since infinity in absence of the right guidance and the vigor to put it into practice. This stanza states that if one insists upon Upädän and forsakes Nimitta, he cannot attain liberation. By virtue of knowledge about the soul, one may think of the state of liberation to emerge out of the soul's nature and might even call for that state to emerge from within. But without heeding to and carrying out the commandments of Guru and without keeping the state of omniscience as his objective he cannot attain liberation. If someone therefore exclusively insists on Upädän and ignores Nimitta, he would merely stay bare knowledgeable. He is destined to remain under delusion, and would never attain liberation. હોટલી કી ટી ) નો આલાપ es Sલ્લી a duz vueil sa, 14 saal sle.
