What is this sound that is resounding like the roar of the ocean, and the smoke that is rising up? The sound of the victorious drums of the Jinas, spreading far and wide, is filled with the essence of the Jinas. ||6||
The entire world, surrounded by the radiance of the Jinas, is filled with the light of the Samavasarana. What wonder is there in the brilliance of the Lord, which is filled with the Devas, Asuras, and humans? ||15||
The radiance of the Jinas' bodies, surpassing the brilliance of the midday sun, eclipses the radiance of millions of Devas, and spreads throughout the world, revealing the great glory of the Lord. ||66||
The Devas, Asuras, and humans, filled with joy, see their own seven births in the pure and radiant aura of the Jinas' bodies, which is like a mirror reflecting all the auspiciousness of the world. ||67||
Seeing that the moon has quickly attained the state of the three umbrellas of the Lord, the radiant sun, as if deceived by the brilliance of the Lord's body, began to serve the ancient poet, Lord Rishabhadeva. ||18||
Meaning: The three umbrellas of the Lord are:
1. The Samavasarana, which is born from the body of the Jinas.
2. The Samavasarana, which is the ground of the Samavasarana. The extent of the eleven Samavasarana grounds, in order, is as follows: "Each of the twenty-four parts, two of the four, half of the two that are struck twice, the eighth part of the three, the three, the two, the eight parts, the five, and the rest." The Samavasarana grounds of the Tirthankaras, starting with Rishabhadeva, are mentioned here. The twenty-four parts are the extent of the Samavasarana ground. The extent of the Bhavanabhumis is twice the extent of the Vallivanas, etc., which are four parts of the twenty-four parts. The extent of the Ganabhumis is half the extent of the Bhavanabhumis. The extent of the Ganabhumis is one-eighth of the two, and the extent of each of the two Pithas is one-eighth of the Ganabhumis. The extent of the Ganabhumis is one-eighth of the two, and the extent of the last Pitha is half the extent of the Ganabhumis. The extents of the eleven grounds, in relation to the first Tirthankara, are written in order. 3 Yojanas, 3 Kha, 1 Shiva, 1 Up, 1 Dhwaja, 1 Kalpa, 3 Bhava, 3 Abhu, 4 Gun, 4 Pitha Dandas.
3. "Ruruche" is a variant reading in the "P" manuscript.
4. The Devas, Asuras, and humans are together.
5. "Nu" is in the sense of "in the argument."
6. "Tejamshi" means "radiances."
7. "Mahomay" means "unparalleled radiance."
8. "Maladarpana sadase" means "like a mirror reflecting all the auspiciousness."
9. "Deepa-" means "radiant."
10. "Deha prabha byajat" means "born from the radiance of the body."
