Bondage! How bad this word is? Who likes this? Who wants to be entrapped in this? None. Opposite of this is the word ‘freedom’, which is liked, wished for by all. Those who are in bondage of any type, they also strongly wish for release. Those who are in jail, they want to come out; […]]]> https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/who-is-free/feed/ 0 https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/neither-bonded-nor-free/ https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/neither-bonded-nor-free/#comments Mon, 30 Mar 2026 19:00:13 +0000 Tattva Gyan http://tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/bonded-free/
Here, wise man has been described in an ornamental language. One who is in bondage cannot be free, and one who is free cannot be in bondage. Man can either be in bondage or free. He cannot be in both the conditions, simultaneously. Thus, one who is not bonded, surely he is free; and one […]]]> https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/neither-bonded-nor-free/feed/ 0 https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/attachment/ https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/attachment/#comments Mon, 30 Mar 2026 06:44:36 +0000 Tattva Gyan http://tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/attachment/
World is transitory. Its all things are impermanent, unstable; hence, things of sense gratifications are also like that and attracted to them living beings wander here and there. Even after doing very hard work, in trying to procure wanted things, what do they get ultimately? Pleasure derived from them is momentary but the struggle is […]]]> https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/attachment/feed/ 0 https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/high-low-caste/ https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/high-low-caste/#comments Sat, 28 Mar 2026 05:51:31 +0000 Tattva Gyan http://tattvagyan.com/?p=1333
Having been born in high caste man thinks himself to be great and being born in low caste thinks himself to be low and pitiable; both of these states of mind are wrong because many times man has been born in high and low castes. Hence, one should not be proud of having been born […]]]> https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/high-low-caste/feed/ 0 https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/old-age/ https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/old-age/#comments Mon, 17 Feb 2025 15:04:00 +0000 Tattva Gyan http://tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/old-age/
After having taken birth, each man passing respectively through childhood, youth and adulthood attains to old age. If a young man does not want to become an adult, it is not in his hand. After young age, adulthood is must. Similarly, old age is also must, which ruins the beauty, weakens the senses, depletes the […]]]> https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/old-age/feed/ 0 https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/violence-basis-karma/ https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/violence-basis-karma/#comments Sun, 19 Jan 2025 05:18:32 +0000 Tattva Gyan http://tattvagyan.com/?p=1340
‘Chana’ word is made of those roots, which mean violence. As it is this word has many meanings – fourth part of blinking act, festival, opportunity etc; but in this verse, its appropriate meaning seems to be violence. Violence is the foundation of Karma like compassion is the basis of religion.

Fools are lethargic only; but those who are not, who are intelligent, wise, who understand, it is not expected from them that they be un-vigilant and waste their life. Nonetheless, sometimes, things happen against hopes. Wise men are also seen in the grip of unvigilance. Senses are very powerful. Mind is fickle; bad habits are […]]]> https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/avoid-unvigilance/feed/ 0 https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/weapon-weaponless/ https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/weapon-weaponless/#comments Sun, 22 Dec 2024 18:26:06 +0000 Tattva Gyan http://tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/weapon-weaponless/
In this world, there are many instruments of violence and they are one better than another. Sword, lance, arrow, gun, canon, bomb and atom bomb (hydrogen bomb) are progressively horrible weapons of destruction. If selfishness is not removed from the consideration of nations, then manufacture of more deadly weapons is possible in the future.

Those who are victims of inferiority complex – think low of themselves, they are not able to advance properly in this world. They dare not develop themselves, tread the path of progress; throughout life they think themselves as incapable and also remain incapable. Opposite to this mentality are those who think others below themselves and […]]]> https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/neither-ill-treat-yourself-nor-others/feed/ 0 https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/dont-speak-in-between/ https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/dont-speak-in-between/#comments Sat, 14 Dec 2024 03:45:11 +0000 Tattva Gyan http://tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/dont-speak-in-between/
Virtue only is a real gem, not the shining stones. For those who are more qualified than us, ‘ratna’ (gem) word is used in the scriptures. When gurus who are more qualified are speaking, discussing or preaching then it is the duty of a humble disciple that he does not speak in-between. Civility requires that […]]]> https://www.tattvagyan.com/jain-stotra/acaranga-sutra/dont-speak-in-between/feed/ 0
