Friends, here is coverage of Gurudeo's lecture attended by me last full moon day. I am sharing it in brief as I feel, it covers almost and
most needed guidance for salvation of soul for all of Jain devotees.
"Dear Devanupriya Shramanopasak ( Lovely followers of Shraman Bhagwan Mahveerswami who are loved by heavenly Gods. I always makes a point to motivate all of you to study Jain Aaggams. Basic
reason behind my intentions needs to be explained. As you all know,
Bhagwan has specified four steps for salvation--knowledge, faith,
conduct and fast. All steps are serial. Knowledge builds faith, faith
makes to change conduct as advised by Bhagwan combined with
fast as a tool to control needs of organs ,mind and living.
Today, I will try to elaborate first step knowledge. In your physical
world, you know the vast differences made by knowledge. A worker
earns hardly Rs 1,000 in a day after putting much of hard work. On the other hand a Supreme Court advocate engaged in defending for murder or property dispute case may earn Rs 1,00,000 per day. This
is mainly due to latter's efforts to gain knowledge than former who
rely on body for earning his daily bread and butter around clock.
To emphasis gain of knowledge, I share story of a cat taken in court.
Four partners of a cotton warehouse decided to keep a cat to take
care of rats. All of fours have decided to take care of cat's four imaginary parts with mouth as a common part for all. One day the
cat's one leg got injured. The care taker of that leg got the leg duly
bandaged with cotton gauge. Same day in the warehouse.one leg of
cat cached fire. To save life the cat ran here and there, As a result
the fire spread in whole warehouse causing tremendous losses. The
three partners attributed the loss to owner of injured leg and the coverage of cotton strip and demanded compensation. The matter
went to court. The defending advocate told the Court, that leg of his client was injured and cannot allow the cat to run. Hence there
is no fault of his client and he owes the compensation. Court agreed
for his argument and granted compensation. This is how knowledge
helps. In spiritual world, knowledge helps to reduce 18 sins and to keep away from sins and to accumulate good deeds. Hence to gain
correct knowledge, study of Aagams is a must for early salvation.
Swa means self or soul. Adhay means study. Thus Swadhaya is self study leading to discovery of soul. If you acquire in current life
correct knowledge through 32 Aagams, it will accompany you up to
next three lives as told by Bhagwan in 01/01 of Bhagwatisutra.
In lecture of monk, they cover knowledge but mostly as story as
in interest of larger gatherings within limited time. So the books can
impart you what has exactly been told by Bhagwan Mahaveerswami.
Jain knowledge through thirty two Aagams can be classified in four
categories of Anuyog as given here under the for easy understanding. 1.-Dravyanuyog--------It covers living and other five basic Draya.
2.-Ganitanuyog---------It covers details of four Gati.
3.-Charankarnanuyog--It covers conduct and behavior.
4.-Dharmakathanuyog- It covers religion based advice. Thus for real
and true knowledge go for Aagam Swadhya Gurudeo concluded".
