## Chapter Thirty-Four **Verse 8:** Four *manosh* (units of time) for five *aryas* (days), sixty for eight, and fifteen for nine, with sixteen added for the *shikhar* (peak). **Verse 8:** Twenty *anushtup* (days), thirty-three, and sixty-one *paranas* (days of fasting). The *jghanya* (lowest), *madhyama* (middle), and *utkrista* (highest) *singha nishkridit* (lion play) vows are performed in sequence. **Verse 8:** This vow is like a diamond, with infinite strength, like a lion. The person who performs it will soon attain *siddhi* (liberation) with the power of *anima* (the ability to become small) and other *gunas* (qualities). **Verse 4:** The *harini* (deer) *chhandas* (meter) is used for the *dadhi mukha* (yogic practice) vow. There are four *dadhi mukha* in each direction of the *Nandi Shwar* (Nandi Shwar) island. There are eight *dadhi mukha* in total, where the *vasaras* (days) are nourished. There are six *dadhi mukha* in each direction, and the *janakas* (parents) are also included in this vow. This vow is the best, as it is performed by *Nandi Shwar*, the *jina chakra* (wheel of the Jinas). **Verse 81:** The author has also explained a simple method for counting the number of *singha nishkridit* vows and *paranas* of all three types. In the *jghanya singha nishkridit* vow, write down the numbers from one to five and add them together. Then multiply the sum by four. For example, the sum of the numbers from one to five is fifteen. Multiplying this by four gives us sixty, which is the number of fasting days. In the *madhyama singha nishkridit* vow, write down the numbers from one to eight and add them together. Then multiply the sum by four and add nine for the *shikhar*. For example, the sum of the numbers from one to eight is thirty-six. Multiplying this by four gives us one hundred and forty-four. Adding nine for the *shikhar* gives us one hundred and fifty-three, which is the number of fasting days. In the *utkrista singha nishkridit* vow, write down the numbers from one to fifteen and add them together. Then multiply the sum by four and add sixteen for the *shikhar*. For example, the sum of the numbers from one to fifteen is one hundred and twenty. Multiplying this by four gives us four hundred and eighty. Adding sixteen for the *shikhar* gives us four hundred and ninety-six, which is the number of fasting days. **Verse 82:** The *paranas* for the *jghanya*, *madhyama*, and *utkrista* *singha nishkridit* vows are twenty, thirty-three, and sixty-one respectively. **Verse 83:** As a result of this vow, the person becomes a holder of *vajra vashabha narach* (diamond, bull, and arrow) strength, fearless like a lion with infinite power, and endowed with *anima* and other *gunas*. They will soon attain *siddhi*. **Nandi Shwar Vrat Vidhi:** The *Nandi Shwar* vow is performed on the *Nandi Shwar* island, which has four *dadhi mukha* in each direction. **Yantra:** (Diagram of the *Nandi Shwar* island with its *dadhi mukha*.)
