Having performed the household dharma, the five who attain samadhi at the time of death, attain the state of a Sudeva, having fallen from the state of a Sumanyuṣya. ||203|| Having thus performed the observance within the eight existences, becoming free from the bonds of the three jewels, they attain siddhi. ||204|| Having attained the state of a human, which is difficult to obtain, he who is unable to perform the prescribed conduct, yet has faith in the teachings of the Jinas, is also a temple of Shiva. ||205|| Even by the attainment of right faith alone, a human being, being the most excellent of all beings, is freed from the fear of the terrible path. ||206|| He who naturally performs prostrations to the Jinas, is the foundation of merit, and even a small amount of sin does not attach to him. ||207|| He who even remembers the Jinas with devotion, his evil karma is destroyed. All that was earned through countless existences is immediately destroyed. ||208|| The houses, dreams, and birds of omen of that person are always auspicious, who holds the Jina, the jewel of the three worlds, in his heart. ||209|| He who utters the words "I bow down to the Arhant," with devotion, is undoubtedly freed from all karma in a short time. ||210|| The pure heart-lotus of the worthy being blossoms forth from the contact of the rays of the story of the Jina-chandra. ||211|| He who performs prostrations to the Arhant, Siddha, and Munis, is to be known as one who has abandoned the world, dear to the followers of the good teachings. ||212|| He who makes an image of the Jina, draws a picture of the Jina, worships the Jina, or praises the Jina, will not find anything difficult to obtain in the world. ||213|| Whether he be a king, a householder, wealthy or poor, he who is devoted to dharma is worthy of worship in all the worlds. ||214|| Those who are endowed with great humility and are wise in the knowledge of what should be done and what should not be done, are the leaders of householders through their association with dharma. ||215|| Those who do not use honey, meat, and liquor, are established in the beauty of householders. ||216||
