an object of affection, a pleasure for the mind, my sole Support, my confidant, whom I value most, like a box of jewellery, like a costly stone, like festivity to the living, my joy, only son. Like the udumvara flower (which is not visible), I deem it to be a rare fortune to hear your name, what to Speak of being able to fix my eyes on you. I connot bear even for a moment the separation from you. Hence I Suggest that so long as I am alive, you stay at home and Serve the line, when I am dead and gone and you too are advanced in age, when the line is securely established, you may renounce the life of a householder and be a monk.”

Jamāli said, “My dear parents ! I appreciate the sentiment expressed by my mother ; but think for a moment that this human life is tortured by birth, old age, death, physical ailment, mental pain and a thousand other troubles. This life is transcient, short and brief. Like the colours on the evening sky, like bubbles on water, like dew drops on the kusa tip ; like a dream or the flash of lightning, human life is restless and fleeting. Its nature is to rot, to fall, to decay, to die. Sooner rather than later, it has, to go. Who can say, my dear parents, who from amongt us is go earlier and who later ? .So please be good enough to give me permission to join the order of Bhagavan Mahavira as a monk." ...,
