Pravacanasăra
Owing to his deep understanding of the subject, he could mark major flaws and infelicities, attributable to my ignorance and inadequacy. The realization dawned on me that in order to wholly understand the profound tenets contained in 'Pravacanasara', one must adopt the status of the digambara ascetic (nirgrantha muni). Only the ascetic who observes excellent restraint (samyama), austerities (tapa) and equanimity (samyabhāva) can grasp fully the Truth contained in this Holy Scripture.
I am unable to express my gratitude in words; I just seek his continued auspicious blessings.
