Girnar ke baare me jo baat aapne suni – “Girnar tirth par pakshiyon ki chhaya bhi padti hai to ve 8ve bhav me moksh jate hain” – ye Jain shastron ka siddhantik niyam nahi hai, balki lok-vyavahar / lok-varta jaisi baat hai.

Jain drashti se kuch saaf baatein samajhni jaruri hain:

1. Moksh ka nischit niyam

- Har jiv ko moksh ke liye - Samyak darshan (sahi shraddha) - Samyak gyan (sahi gyan) - Samyak charitra (sahi acharan) aur - Kshayopsham adi vishesh karm sthiti chahiye. - Sirf kisi tirth ki dharti, chhaya, ya sparsh se bina in sab ke moksh nischit ho jaye, aisa Agamon ya tattv-granthon me kahin nahi kaha gaya.

1. Pakshi ki chhaya wali baat ka swaroop

- Aisi baatein aam taur par tirth-mahatmya batane ke liye boli jati hain – matlab: “Is tirth ka itna mahatva hai ki yahan januaron–pakshiyon ko bhi bahut bada punya milta hai.” - Iska arth shabdik (“literal”) lena sahi nahi hai ki har pakshi 8ve bhav me nischit moksh hi payega.

1. Jain siddhant ke anusaar kya manna chahiye?

- Girnar mahān siddha-kshetra hai, yahan - Neminath Bhagwan ka moksh, - anek muni ka moksh, - atyant pavitra sadhana hui hai. - Isliye: - Yahan aane, shraddha se darshan–pooja, tapa–jap–dhyan karne se asankhyat punya hota hai. - Yahan rehne wale, yahaan se guzarne wale, yahaan ke jiv (pakshi adi) bhi apne yogya anusaar punya ke adhikari ho sakte hain. - Parantu nischit 8ve bhav ka moksh sirf kisi “chhaya padne” se bandha hua ho, aisa Jain tattv-darshan nahi manta.

1. Agamik / paramparik sthiti

- Shwetambar ya Digambar dono ke mool siddhant granthon (Tattvartha Sutra adi) me aisa koi spasht niyam nahi milta ki – “Falane tirth par pakshi ki chhaya padne se uska 8ve bhav me moksh nischit hai.” - Isliye ise lok-prasiddh kahavat / mahatmya-vachak vaakya ke roop me hi dekhna chahiye, na ki shastriya siddhant ke roop me.

1. Sahi drashti kya rakhen?

- Aisi baaton se tirth ke prati shraddha badhe – ye achhi baat hai. - Lekin dhyan rahe: - Humein apna samyak darshan–gyan–charitra badhane par zor dena hai. - Tirth hamari sadhana ko bal dete hain, hamare punya ko anant guna kar dete hain, par kewal svatah moksh ki guarantee nahi dete.

Girnar ke baare me saral jankari yahan mil sakti hai

Isliye nishkarsh: “Pakshi ki chhaya pad jaye to 8ve bhav me nischit moksh” – ye kaheen bhi pramukh Jain shastron me likha hua niyamit siddhant nahi hai, ye tirth ke mahatva ko badha-chadha kar batane wali lok-varta hai, jise bhavarth se samajhna chahiye, shabdanusar nahi.
