Agam Sutra 24, Payannasutra-1, 'Chatuh-Sharan' Sutra-23
**Sutra 24:**
One who has reverence for the Siddha, the Supreme Soul, whose pure form has been revealed through the purification of karma by taking refuge in the Arihant, joins their hands in a gesture of respect, like the stem of a blooming lotus, with a bowed head and says, "I take refuge in the Siddha."
**Sutra 25:**
I take refuge in the Siddha, who has become a Siddha through the destruction of the eight karmas, who is rich in innate knowledge and vision, and who has attained all that is worthy of attainment.
**Sutra 26:**
I take refuge in the Siddha, who resides in the crown of the three worlds, who has attained the supreme abode, Moksha, who is of inconceivable power, who is auspicious, who is in the Siddha state, and who bestows infinite happiness.
**Sutra 27:**
I take refuge in the Siddha, who has uprooted the enemies of attachment and aversion from their roots, who is the direct witness of the Kevalis, who are always useful and have a clear target, who experiences innate happiness, and who is the supreme liberator.
**Sutra 28:**
I take refuge in the Siddha, who despises the enemies of attachment, etc., who burns the karmic seeds, which are like whirlpools, with the fire of complete meditation, who is worthy of the shelter of the Yogeshwar, and who is worthy of being remembered by all beings.
**Sutra 29:**
I take refuge in the Siddha, who has attained supreme bliss, who is like an ocean of virtues, who has completely destroyed the root of existence, who has dimmed the sun and moon with the light of his perfect knowledge, and who has destroyed the duality of attachment, aversion, etc.
**Sutra 30:**
I take refuge in the Siddha, who has attained the supreme Brahman (supreme knowledge), who has attained the rare benefit of liberation, who is free from all kinds of beginnings, who is like a pillar in sustaining the house of the three worlds, and who is without beginning.
**Sutra 31:**
The Bhavy being, who is filled with love due to the Nay (knowledge) and Brahman, which are the causes of the virtues of the Sadhu, who has taken refuge in the Siddha, places their head on the ground and says:
**Sutra 32:**
I take refuge in the Sadhu, who is the relative of the Jiva-loka (six life forms), who has crossed the ocean of misery, who is very fortunate, and who has attained the happiness of liberation through knowledge, etc.
**Sutra 33, 34:**
I take refuge in the Sadhu, who are Kevalis, who have perfect knowledge, who are of vast intellect, who are omniscient, who are Shrutadhar, who are the Acharyas and Upadhyayas of the Jain teachings.
I take refuge in the Sadhu, who are fourteen-purvi, ten-purvi, nine-purvi, who possess twelve angas, who possess eleven angas, who are Jin-kalpi, who are Yathalandi, who are Parihar-vishad, who are of good character, who have attained the knowledge of the Kshira-ashrava, who have attained the knowledge of the Madhyashrava, who have attained the knowledge of the Sambhinna-shrota, who have attained the knowledge of the Kostha-buddhi, who are Charan-muni, who have attained the knowledge of the Vaikriya, and who have attained the knowledge of the Pada-anusari.
