________________ Alas! I have done nothing to save my soul, precious though the human life is, Listened I have not, the word of the Jina, caught as I was in wordly things. Oh, thus thou reflect. (3) Much I repent now, time that I did waste, lost as I was in love and hate. Listened not the word of Arihant, caught as I was in worldly things. Oh, thus thou reflect. (4) Much I repent now, Oh ! Compassionate One! show Thy mercy on me, save me from this cycle of birth; Always, may I ever have the refuge of Arihant, Siddha, sadhu and religion, birth after birth without a break : Oh! thus thou reflect. What is shown is Aradhana for the last moments of life, So take Thee to it gladly oh! every man and woman, There being no lasting benefit in this existence, True worth lies only in meditation on Arihant, Oh, Thus thou reflect. Pachakhan At the Last moment Death : Count Navkar and then recite thus to foresake all that bind us to worldly existence. धारणा अभिग्गहं पच्चखामि अन्नथणाभोगेणं सहस्त्रागारेणं । महत्तरागारेणं, सव्वसमाहिवत्तियागारेणं affers 11 The Punya Prakash Stavan Poem Whoever is born is bound to die. To pacify the mind from the torments of death, Aradhana is advised, but which is certainly restless due to intense pain; so to train an unprepared restless mind, which cannot be otherwise controlled; a practice is made to educate the mind by doing Aradhana, daily or once a week or once a fortnight or once a every month or at least once a year. Not only it improves us, in this life but also in the life times to follow, till liberation becomes a reality. Jain Education International 95 (5) For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
