**Ratnakarandaka Shravaka Achar**

This is a woman, adorned with virtues, who is the perfect wife, a beholder of the lotus-like feet of the Jinas, and a bringer of fortune. || 29 || May she bring me happiness and make me happy. Who is she? She is Dristi Lakshmi, the wealth of right vision. What is her special quality? It is said, "Jina" and so on. The feet of the Jinas, the destroyers of karma, the lords of the Ganadharas, the Tirthankaras, are worthy of worship. She beholds those feet with faith. This is her virtue. This is the meaning: Lakshmi is one who beholds the lotus, while Dristi Lakshmi is one who beholds the meaning of the words of the Jinas. What is her nature? She is a land of happiness, a place where happiness arises. How? Just as a woman is a land of love for a lover, and brings him happiness, so too may Dristi Lakshmi bring me happiness. May she nourish and protect me, like a mother to her child. What is her special quality? A mother of pure virtue protects her child, while a mother of impure virtue, a wicked woman, does not. Dristi Lakshmi, adorned with the eight virtues, the three jewels, the teachings, the vows, and the seven limbs, may she nourish me. May she purify me, free from all blemishes and stains. What is she like? She is a woman of a good family, adorned with virtues. This is the meaning: Just as a woman of a good family, adorned with virtues, purifies and brings glory, so too does Dristi Lakshmi, adorned with the eight virtues, purify me. || 29 ||

**4004**

By whom the darkness of ignorance is destroyed, all the thoughts of the worthy soul are revealed by the rays of right knowledge, the path of the ocean is made manifest, that is the glorious Ratnakarandaka, the sun that dries up the ocean of samsara, may that Samantabhadra Muni, the glorious moon, the Jina, live long. || 1 ||

Thus ends the fifth chapter of the Samantabhadra Swami's Upasaka Adhyayana Tika, composed by Prabha Chandra.
