Panchidiya Sutra

The preceptor effectively controls five sense organs and observes nine guidelines (limitations) of celibacy: he/she is free from four passions (of anger, ego, deceit and greed). he/she is thus equipped with these eighteen attributes. He/she practices five great vows (of non-violence, truth, non-accepting any thing unless specifically offered, celibacy and non-possession); he/she is capable to observe five-fold code (of knowledge, perception, conduct, austerity and vigor); he/she observes five carefulness (pertaining to movements, utterance, desires, acceptance and disposal); he/she effectively controls three aspects (of mind. speech and body). (In all) my preceptor is thus embedded with these 36 attributes.
