Opening lines

जैन परम्परा के आचार नियमों के अन्तर्गत सल्लेखना एक महत्त्वपूर्ण बिन्दु है। सल्लेखना शब्द सत् + लेखना का निष्पन्न रूप है।

The summary

लेख पं. आशाधर के सागारधर्मामृत के आधार पर सल्लेखना का विवेचन करता है। इसमें सल्लेखना शब्द की व्युत्पत्ति, उसके पर्यायवाची नाम, समाधि-साधक का लक्षण, बाह्य-आभ्यन्तर तथा द्रव्य-भाव भेद बताए गए हैं। लेखक कषायों को कृश करने पर बल देते हुए स्पष्ट करते हैं कि सल्लेखना आत्मघात नहीं, धर्म की रक्षा का साधन है।

Written by the archive’s cataloguers, not by the author.
