**Āgama Sūtra 29, Payannāsūtra-6, Sanstāraka Sūtra - 11, 12**
Shree Jin-kathith Shramanatva, is considered the best benefit among all kinds of best benefits; because through its practice, Shree Tirthankaratva, Kevalgyan and Moksha, happiness is attained. And then, for the benefit of the afterlife, the root of attaining Moksha for the blood-stained and afflicted Mithyatvi soul, which is considered to be Samyaktva, is considered to be of special importance. From this, the importance of the benefit of attaining Shree Jin-kathith Shramanatva is even greater. Because, the success of the cause of liberation, which is equal to knowledge and vision, has been based on Shramanatva. Sūtra-13
And, in all kinds of Leshya, just as Shukulaleshya is considered a special quality for all vows, Yamas, etc., like the vow of Brahmacharya and for all kinds of rules, like Shree Jin-kathith five Samitis and three Guptis, similarly Shramanya is the main quality in all qualities. While the worship of Santhara is considered even greater than this. Sūtra - 14
In all the best Tirths, just as the Tirth of Shree Tirthankar Dev, the Abhishek performed by Devdevendra, like the peak of Sumeru, for the Abhishek of all castes, the worship of Santhara of a well-equipped man is considered superior. Sūtra - 15
White lotus, full Kalash, Swastika Nandavart and beautiful flower garland, all these auspicious things are also more auspicious than the worship of Santhara, which is the form of the last time. Sūtra - 16
Those great souls who destroy the karma-wood with the fire of Jin-kathith tapas, who are brave in the observance of the rules of Viraati, who are pure in self-realization through Samyaggyan, and who have attained the path of the best Dharma, ride on the elephant of Santhara and happily cross over. Sūtra - 17
This Santhara is an unparalleled support for the well-equipped soul. It is the abode of qualities, it is the form of Kalpa-Achar, and it is the root cause of the supreme Shree Tirthankar Pad, Moksha-Gati and Siddha-Dasha. Sūtra - 18
You have obtained a body adorned with nectar like Shree Jin-Vachan. The Vasudhara, which resides in your abode, is resting on the jewel of Dharma. Sūtra - 19
Because you have obtained everything worth having in the world. And by adopting the worship of Santhara, you have shown good patience for Jin-Pravachan. Therefore, you have obtained the tradition of such auspicious benefits, which are served by the best men and are supremely divine. Sūtra - 20
And, you have obtained the beautiful jewel of Samyaggyan and Darshan, adorned with the special kind of light of knowledge, and the pure Triratna Mala, with qualities like character, conduct, etc. Sūtra - 21
The well-equipped man, through whose practice, the tradition of qualities can be obtained, those souls who obtain Shree Jin-kathith Santhara, which is virtuous, have increased their brilliance in the world with the adornment of the essential jewel of knowledge, etc.
