THE EXCELLENCE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
407
11. Mamsaņi chinnapuvvāim, utthubhamti egayā kāyam.
Parisahāim luscińsu ahavā pańsuņā avakiriñsu.. 11. (Brutally assaulting him), some people would even
mangle him, spit on him, fling heaps of dust on him,
and (thus) inflict hardships on him. १२. उच्चालइय णिहणिंसु, अदुवा आसणाओ खलइंसु ।
वोसट्टकाए पणयासी, दुक्खसहे भगवं अपडिण्णे ।। 12. Uccālaiya ņihaņissu, aduvā āsaņão khalaińsu.
Vosatthakāe panayāsi,dukkhasahe bhagavan apaļiņņe.. 12. Some would lift him up and throw him down while he
was in meditation. Some others would push him out of his seat. But the Bhagavān had abandoned all care of the body; he was wholly dedicated to the cause of the soul; he was highly tolerant of feeling of pain and anguish; and free from the desire of pleasure, (He would, therefore, never let his evenness of mind dwindle).
ANNOTATION 12. Not all people inhabiting the Lädha countryside were ill-tempered; there were, however, some good-natured people there as well. There were those who were very impulsive. These would remove the Bhagavān from his seat. Even so the Bhagavān would not be displeased. Seeing that he maintained a sweet evenness of temper, their hearts would change, and they would apologise to him for their nonchalant insolence. The ill-natured ones, however, did not evince any change of heart. १३. सूरो संगामसीसे वा, संवुडे तत्थ से महावीरे।
पडिसेवमाणे फरसाई, अचले भगवं रीइत्था॥ 13. Sūro samgamasise vă, samvude tattha sē mahavire.
Padisevamāṇe pharusāim, acale bhagavaṁ riitthā.. 13. Just as a warrior wearing the escutcheon is never
baffled at the war front, so also was Bhagavān Mahavira wearing the armour of total abstinence from sinful actions never subdued by hardships, and would never be disturbed in meditation. Unperturbed, he kept cheerfully rambling on.
