12. Praatahakaalnee Stuti (Early Morning Hymn)
મહાદેવ્યાઃ કુક્ષિરત્ન, શબ્દજીતરવાત્મજમ; રાજચંદ્રમહં વંદે, તત્ત્વલોચનદાયકમ્
Mahaadevyaah kukshiratnam, shabdajeetavaraatmajam; Raajchandramaham vande, tattvalochanadaayakam.
The jewel born to mother Devba, the master of the word, son of Ravjibhai I render obeisance to Rajchandra, the light of whose wisdom has bestowed divine eyes to see the truth. (1)
જય ગુરુદેવ! સહજાન્મસ્વરૂપ પરમ ગુરુ શુદ્ધ ચૈતન્યસ્વામી.
Glory be to you, o divine guru! Gracefully still in your true nature, you are the supreme guru, master of your pure consciousness. (2)
Jay gurudev! Sahajaatmasvaroop paramguru shuddh chaitanyasvaamee.
ૐકાર બિંદુ સંયુક્ત, નિત્યં ધ્યાયન્તિ યોગીનઃ, કામદં મોક્ષદ શૈવ, ૐકારાય નમો નમ:
Omkaaram bindu sanyuktam, nityam dhyaayanti yogeenah, Kaamadam mokshadam chaiva, omkaaraaya namo namaha.
Yogis (spiritual seekers) constantly meditate focusing on the omkar mantra. It satisfies the noblest of all desires, namely Moksha. I repeatedly pay homage to the five supreme beings (Panch Parmeshti) symbolised by the omkar mantra. [These five are: Arihant, Siddh, Aachaarya, Upaadhyaay, Saadhu] (3)
મંગલમય મંગલકરણ, વીતરાગ વિજ્ઞાન, નમો તાહિ જાતે ભયે, અરિહંતાદિ મહાન;
Mangalamay mangalakaran, veetaraag vignaan, Namo taahi jaate bhaye, arihantaadi mahaan;
Auspicious source of true bliss, the Totally Equanimous Enlightenment of the Lord who is free from deluded attachment, Worship of this wisdom confers a glorious status such as that of Arihant. (4)
