– The Jewel-casket of Householder’s Conduct

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Ācārya Samantabhadra’s (circa 2nd century CE) Ratnakaraõçaka-śrāvakācāra,

comprising 150 verses, is a celebrated and perhaps the earliest Digambara work dealing with the excellent path of dharma that every householder (śrāvaka) must follow. All his efforts should be directed towards the acquisition and safekeeping of the Three Jewels (ratnatraya), comprising right faith (samyagdarśana), right knowledge (samyagjñāna) and right conduct (samyakcāritra), which lead to releasing him from worldly sufferings and establishing him in the state of supreme happiness. Giving up of the body in a manner that upholds righteousness on the occurrence of a calamity, famine, senescence, or disease, from which there is no escape, is called the vow of sallekhanā. All persons with right faith, the ascetic as well as the householder, look forward to attaining voluntary, passionless death at the appropriate time. The

treatise finally describes the eleven stages (pratimā) of the householder’s conduct.
