श्रीमजिनसेनाचार्यविरचितम् आदिपुराणम्
प्रथमं पर्व
श्रीमते सकलज्ञानसाम्राज्यपदीयुषे । धर्मचक्रभृते भत्रे नमः संसारभीमुषे ॥ १ ॥
जो अनन्तचतुष्टयरूप अन्तरङ्ग और अष्टप्रातिहार्यरूप बहिरङ्ग लक्ष्मीसे सहित हैं जिन्होंने समस्त पदार्थोंको जाननेवाले केवलज्ञानरूपी साम्राज्यका पद प्राप्त कर लिया है, जो धर्मचक्रके धारक हैं, लोकत्रयके अधिपति हैं और पंच परावर्तनरूप संसारका भय नष्ट करनेवाले हैं, ऐसे श्री अर्हन्तदेवको हमारा नमस्कार है।
विशेष—इस श्लोकमें सब विशेषण ही विशेषण हैं विशेष्य नहीं है। इससे यह बात सिद्ध होती है कि उक्त विशेषण जिसमें पाये जायें वही वन्दनीय है। उक्त विशेषण अर्हन्त देवमें पाये जाते हैं अतः यहाँ उन्हींको नमस्कार किया गया है। अथवा 'श्रीमते' पद विशेष्यवाचक है। श्री ऋषभदेवके एक हजार आठ नामों में एक श्रीमत् नाम भी है जैसा कि आगे इसी ग्रन्थमें कहा जावेगा-'श्रीमान स्वयंभूर्वृषभः' आदि । अतः यहाँ कथानायक श्री भगवान् ऋषभदेवको नमस्कार किया गया है। टिप्पणकारने इस श्लोकका व्याख्यान विविध प्रकारसे

## The Adi Purana Composed by Shri Jinaseanacharya
**First Chapter**

Salutations to the glorious one, who has attained the kingdom of all knowledge, who is the upholder of the Dharmachakra, the lord of the three worlds, and the destroyer of the fear of the world, which is in the form of five transformations.

**Special Note:** All the adjectives in this verse are themselves the subject, not the object. This proves that the one in whom these adjectives are found is the one worthy of worship. These adjectives are found in the Arhant Devas, therefore, they are being saluted here. Alternatively, the word "Shrime" is the subject. One of the thousand and eight names of Shri Rishabhdeva is also "Shrime," as will be mentioned later in this text: "Shriman Swayambhuvrishhabha" etc. Therefore, the hero of this story, Shri Bhagwan Rishabhdeva, is being saluted here.

The commentator has explained this verse in various ways:

1. Salutations to the glorious one who is the first Tirthankara. Om Namo Vakragrivacharyaya Shri Kundakunda Swamine.
2. This is the beginning of the great story of the three and sixty-six lakh Purusha Charitra, which is composed by the great poet Shri Jinasean Muni Indra, who is adorned with the crown of the great king Amoghvarsha Maharaj, and whose feet are adorned with the moon-like nails of the great king Amoghvarsha Maharaj. This is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part of the great Purana, which is the first part
