one of them is by the leading Jain saint, Acharya Tulsi. This prayer is from original Jain sources, one stanza of the prayer is as below:
You are purer than the moon and more brilliant than the sun. You are deeper than the oceans. Oh, God, grant me perfection. Looking with the light of wisdom within, we grow to a vision serene Let ultimate knowledge blossom forth, In the soil of conduct fertile, Steadfast be our faith in truth, And the mind uncrossed by doubt, We are drops of water and the ocean too, Let all complexes dissolve, Devotee and divinity at once. From songs of gratitude Jain prayer leads to one's mind being fully awake.
