Explanation in English from 膧c膩rya P奴jyap膩da鈥檚 Sarv膩rthasiddhi:
It has been said that the votary (惫谤补迟墨) is free from stings (艣补濒测补). Wrong-belief (尘颈迟丑测腻诲补谤艣补苍补) also is a sting (艣补濒测补). Therefore, the votary who is a right-believer (蝉补尘测补驳诲峁涐梗峁璱) ought to be free from stings. Is the right-believer (蝉补尘测补驳诲峁涐梗峁璱) votary free from transgressions? It is clarified that sometimes, owing to delusion (moha), the following transgressions do occur in case of the right-believer (蝉补尘测补驳诲峁涐梗峁璱).
Qualities like freedom from doubt鈥�苍颈岣ヅ沘峁卥颈迟惫补鈥揺tc., have been explained earlier in 鈥�诲补谤艣补苍补惫颈艣耻诲诲丑颈鈥�鈥� (see 蝉奴迟谤补 6-24). Doubt, etc., are the opposites of those qualities. What is the distinction between admiration (辫谤补艣补峁僺腻) and praise (蝉补峁僺迟补惫补)? Admiration (辫谤补艣补峁僺腻) is attributing knowledge and conduct to the wrong-believer (尘颈迟丑测腻诲峁涐梗峁璱) in one鈥檚 own thought. Expression of existent or non-existent qualities in the wrong-believer (尘颈迟丑测腻诲峁涐梗峁璱) is praise (蝉补峁僺迟补惫补). This is the difference between the two. Now, eight qualities have been mentioned for right belief (蝉补尘测补驳诲补谤艣补苍补). Should not the transgressions be eight? No, it is not necessary. The author lays down five transgressions each for the primary vows and the supplementary vows. Hence, here also he mentions only five transgressions; the transgressions of admiration (辫谤补艣补峁僺腻) and praise (蝉补峁僺迟补惫补) encompass the other transgressions.
