दोहा
आरत-रौद्र विचारतें, दुख-चिन्ता अधिकाय । जैसें चढै तरंगिनी, महामेघ जलपाय ॥२४॥
By meditating on the Painful and on the Harmful we get a lot of sorrows and worries, in the same manner that a river grows because of the rain falling from big clouds.
चौपाई
आर्त रौद्र कुध्यान बखाने । धर्म- ध्यान अब सुनहु सयाने । केवल भाषित वाणी मानै । कर्म-नाश को उद्यम ठानै ॥२५॥
We talked about the bad meditations on the Painful and on the Harmful. Listen now, O wise man, to the meditation on the Moral: to have some consideration for the speech of the Omniscients; to keep the effort to destroy the karma;
पूरब-कर्म उदय पहिचानै । पुरुषाकार लोकथिति जानै । चारों धर्म ध्यान के पाये । जे समुझे ते मारग आये ॥२६॥
to identify the manifestation of karma accumulated previously; to know the structure of the world shaped as a man: these are the four categories of meditation on the Virtuous.' Anyone who knows them follows the Path [of Liberation].
"The four categories of meditation on the Virtuous are: discerning the command of the Jina (ajnavicaya), discerning the nature of what is calamitous (apāya-vicaya ), discerning the consequences of karma (vipāka-vicaya ), discerning the structure of the universe (samsthāna-vicaya ). See Williams p. 239-240.
