________________ व्यवहारचारित्राधिकार 4 - THE EMPIRICAL RIGHT CONDUCT ब्रह्मचर्य व्रत का स्वरूप - The vow (vrata) of chastity (brahmacarya) – दठूण इत्थिरूवं वांछाभावं णियत्तदे तासु । मेहुणसण्णविविज्जियपरिणामो अहव तुरीयवदं ॥५९॥ जो (साधु) स्त्रियों का रूप देखकर उनके प्रति वाञ्छाभाव को छोडता है, अथवा मैथुन संज्ञा से रहित जिसके परिणाम हैं, उसी के चौथा ब्रह्मचर्य व्रत होता है। The ascetic (sādhu) who, on seeing the form of women entertains no desire for them, or, is devoid of the disposition of copulation (maithuna), observes the fourth vow (urata) of chastity (brahmacarya). EXPLANATORY NOTE Ācārya Umāsvāmī's Tattvārthasūtra: मैथुनमब्रह्म ॥७-१६॥ जो मैथुन है सो अब्रह्म अर्थात् कुशील है। Copulation (maithuna) is unchastity (abrahma). The desire of the man and the woman to touch and embrace each other owing to the rise of the conduct-deluding (caritramohaniya) karmas is called 'mithuna'and the resulting activity is called 'maithuna'. Not all activities of the man and the woman together are 'maithuna'; only the activities prompted by sexual desire are 'maithuna'. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 129
