## The Sixty-Seventh Chapter
**The pavilion of the serpent-hood, adorned by Padmavati's canopy, the destruction of harmful karma, the attainment of Kevala Jnana, the attainment of a glorious body devoid of the five elements, the destruction of the cycle of birth and death, the fear of Sambhardeva, the emergence of your Tirthankara name-karma, and the destruction of all obstacles - all these manifested together. May Lord Parshvanath, the crown jewel of the fierce lineage, forever destroy the fear of Yama - may he protect us from birth and death!** ||156||
**"Is this peace due to the Lord's meditation? Or due to Dharanendra? Or due to Padmavati? Or due to the Lord's forgiveness? Or due to Indra? Or due to its own nature? Or due to the expansion of the mantra? Or due to the fear of the enemy? Or due to the Lord's auspicious rise? Or due to the passage of time? Or due to the destruction of harmful karma?" Thus, the gods, holding offerings in their hands, fearing the obstacles created by Sambhardeva, may Lord Parshvanath, the foremost among the valiant, destroy our sins!** ||167||
**Hearing his words, which were sweet to the ears, pleasing to the heart, beneficial, and based on reason, Sambhardeva abandoned his intense Mithyatva, like poison, due to his long-standing animosity. He himself came and praised him. Even though he was cruel, he attained salvation. May Lord Parshvanath, who is seated on the throne of Indra, having attained the state of Siddha, destroy our group of obstacles!** ||168||
**Parshvanath's soul was first the minister Marubhuti, then he became a deva in the Sahasrar heaven, from there he became a Vidyadhara, then he became a deva in the Achyuta heaven, from there he became the Chakravarti Vananami, then he became Ahminndra in the Madhyama Aveyaka, from there he became the king Anand, adorned with the qualities of kings, then he became Indra in the Ananta heaven, and finally he became the destroyer of harmful karma. ** ||169||
