…मुख्तलिफ़ धारणाएँ हैं। बाज़का ऐतक़ाद है कि दिव्यध्वनि निरक्षरी न होकर अक्षरी ही होती थी।

The summary

लेखक तर्क देते हैं कि तीर्थंकर की दिव्यध्वनि अक्षरी नहीं, निरक्षरी होती है। पशु और शिशु भी निरक्षरी वाणी से ज्ञान पाते हैं; अक्षरी वाणी सीखे बिना समझ नहीं आती, इसलिए सबको एक साथ बोध न होता। श्रोता सुनी बात को अपनी मातृभाषा में अनुवाद कर ग्रहण करते हैं, और पूर्णज्ञानी भाषा से अतीत होते हैं।
