आयारादीणाण जीवादीदसण च विष्णेय ।
'छज्जीवणिकाय च तहा भणइ चरित तु बवहारो ॥ २७६ ॥ | Ayarādinānam jivädidamsanam cha vinneyam Chhajjīvānıkayamcha taha bhanayi charittam tu vavahāro (276) आचारादिज्ञान जीवादिदर्शन च विज्ञेयम् ।
षट् जीवनिकाय च तदा भणति चरित्र तु व्यवहार ॥ २७६ ॥

आदा खु मज्झ णाण आदा मे दसण चरित्त च । आदा पच्चक्खाण आदा मे सवरो जोगो ॥ २७७॥ Ada khu majjhananam ādā me damsane charitte ya Adā pachchakkhanam ādā me samvaro jogo
(277)
आत्मा खलु मम ज्ञानमात्मा मे दर्शन चरित्र च । आत्मा प्रत्याख्यान आत्मा मे सवरो योग ॥ २७७ ॥ 277 Whereas the Self is my night knowledge, the Self is my night farth, the Self again is my night conduct The Self is renunciation, the Self is the stoppage of karmas and yogic meditation (These constitute the mischaya moksha marga, or Path of Salvation from the real point of view)

Do they result from direct manifestation of the Self or are they caused by alien influences? This question is answered in the succeeding gāthās जह फलियमणी सुद्धो ण सय परिणमइ रायमाईंहि । रगिज्जदि अण्णेहि दु सो रत्तादीहि दव्वेहि ॥ २७८ ॥
'छज्जीवाण च नहा ।
