JAINISM----FIVE OPTIONS FOR A SOUL-----!!!.

Friends, last week has bought a sad news of demise of my senior  member from Jalgaon. He got a "Santhara Maran " due to old age. His passing gave me a flashback of his achievements. Religion and social in both field he contributed a lot .It reminded me Gurudeo's  lecture for molding of our soul. Here is the coverage from my diary.

"Devanupriya, you all know power of a single soul. Each and every soul has got a tremendous potential. It depends upon his upbringing, culture and religious training. Bhagwan Mahaverswami has in 12/09 chapter of Bhagwatisutra given in "Bhavya-Deoaadi of five types " description. I will explain it in popular terms . Please refer the sutra

for original meaning. We have also studied six Leshaya of a soul which express it's sentiments. We have also seen eight types of soul. A soul can be turned into " Aatma Duratma, Mahatma, Dharmatma and finally into Deva-Dhi-Deo " or Parmatma.

(Simple soul, demon, great man, saint and Finally God. First one is a simple soul living life in a routine way not doing any harm to others. Second one is a bad guy with number of versions from killer to cruel dictator. Human history is full of such examples. Only seventh hell can accommodate them. Next one soul is doing Dharma and helping others to do it within society he is Mahatma. For Mahatma the area of their horizon varies. Some are doing service of community others for broad one like state, country or world. They contribute for lifting masses' lives and acting as a sure helping hand. My departed relative was from this category. Any one facing difficulty can approach him

and get his helping hand, Arranging Chaturmas, Dikha, wedding all functions, he was first to reach. There were in all three Dikha from his own family. We all meet such 2 or 3 Mahatma in our life time. I pray for his early salvation and his soul to rest in peace for ever. The fourth one is Dharmatma. A true monk, Only engaged in spiritual guidance for devotees without involving money of any selfishness.

He make effort to get salvation for himself and guide devotee for it.  

In Bhagwatiji  Mahaveer swami used following terms and features. 1.-Bhavdrava Deo-Human or animal eligible to get birth in Deolog. 2.-Nardeo-A chakravarty or human king ruling earth with ethics..      3.-Dhrmadeo-Jain monks following exact path of Mahaveerswami.    4.-Devadhi Deo- Arihant Thirthankar Bhagwan. 

5.-Bhavdeo-Souls who are living term as any four types of Devloga. I end up the write up by a pray to his soul to bless us and guide to serve the society with all possible sources to maximum as he did.I hope readers will pick up suitable option  and carry on the mission.

JAINISM---WHAT IS MISHRA-DRASHTI- GUNASTAN---14.---------!!!.

 Friends the mix reports of second pandemic wave in my state put hold on my travel trip plan to have "Gurudarshan". It made me to visit again to my diary to refresh memories of Gurudeo's question answer session. One question attracted my attention. Samkit is my interest subject and I keep reading on  quality material on it. Here is summarized version for my blog readers. Hopefully it turn out good. 

A devotee requested Gurudeo to explain "Mishra-Gunstana" to him. Gurudeo started the answer " It is the third Gunastana.Mishra  means combination of more than one faith. The particular soul has moved up from first and second stages. Now the third one is crucial stage to decide his future course of salvation. If the soul has been guided by Suguru he can enter forth Gunastana or back to the first "Mitthyatva" one for a longer time delaying his salvation. I hope before going into the subject you all know by this time what is correct faith or darshan.

In forth he can have faith in Jinwani but cannot go for Pachkan.Five can make him true Shrawak from 6 to 14 he can become Sadhu and can walk on path of Jinedra Bhagwan provided monk is not Kuguru.

In Bhagwatisutra Bhagwan has termed  Kuguru "Asanvrut Angar".  Mahaveerswami has given details how Kuguru increases his cycles for misguiding devotees and not following Jinwani in disguise of a monk in white dress. One can refer chapter 01/01 of Bhagwatisutra. 

Mishra soul's faith is mixed .He believes in both. Kudeo or Sudeo. He can worship Mahaveer Swami and God of other religion equally. He do not bother to verify their teaching or nature. He do not want to check if other Gods are free from love, hate or killings. He also visit

Stanak, Jain temples or Upashray. To end personal sufferings he can offer visit all astrologers, numerologist or so called Godman to get the solution. He have no hesitation to bow down to tree or any statue  fixed on roadside .He is aware of Karma theory but also used to try all available options to solve problems faced.

The soul happily perform "Yadnya",offer oil lamps flowers, Chader to famous holy places of all religions. He keeps "Upwas" on  week's particular day to please planets and put on particular ring to please the unfavorable Graha. At the same time he chats Navkarmantra ask friends and relatives to participate in "Shantijaap" arranged at home.

Using Navkarmantra for material gain is not Samkit. He also donot have problem to pluck flowers or lit number of lamps for festivals. By birth he is Jain. Has kept a day in a year for "Sawastari" to follow Jainism. But taking Pachkhan ,not going to mix hotels not followed.

At some point of time he visits even few Jain "Kuguru" for the paid astrological services to future prediction. He does not care that such

attempts will bring disgrace to Bhagwan's teachings and Jaindharma. He and the Kuguru do not find anything is wrong for Samkit. If one really care to protect or make Samkit stronger, he must have a deep study. For it one has to read 10/25 Mitthyatva from Pratikaman or 25 Bol and 29th chapter "Samyaktva Parakram of "Uttaradhayan Sutra.

Dear devotees two things carve in your mind for ever. Salvation is not possible without Samkit. Second once you fall to Mitthatva you will have to pass through more life and death cycle to regain it. Hope you will understand it and leave Mishra or Mittyatav as early as you can do. Check you are not worshipping Kudharm, Kuguru or Kudeo  When ever possible add quality Sham. Saveg, Nirved,Anukampa and Aastha. Aastha is to care it is a good tool  for adding to Samkit

A soul do not build next life while at this stage. Reason being one must be of a single faith right or wrong. Hopefully my lecture can help you to look within soul and correct flaws "Gurudeo concluded.
