न चित्ता तायए भासा
कुओ विज्जाणुसासणं
कुओ विज्जाणुसासणं
Ornamental languages can also not shield (one with misconduct from his lowly birth) then what can be said about intelligence
It is clear from this that enhancement of knowledge has nothing to do with language but with literature. As much as one studies, that much intelligent he would become. However, with reference to get away from misconduct, neither the language nor the scholarly attitude is helpful.
Things which save the soul from wrongdoing are – good conduct, exemplary character, benevolence etc., neither the language, nor intellect.
- Uttaradhyayana Sutra 6/11
Jai jinendra. Here it not the language that is referred to Chita. Here a very important difference is cited between Vidya and Knowledge.According to my thinking the question of language in terms of either English or any other language is not here.
