Verse 5
evam mae abhithuya vihuya-raya-mala
pahina-jara-marana /
They whom I have thus extolled, who have shaken off impurities and defilements, who
have relinquished old age and death may they, the twenty-four jinas, the
Tirthankaras be gracious to me.
cauvisam pi jina-vara titthayara me
pasiyantu //
Verse 6
kittiya-vandiya-mahiya je le logassa
uttama siddha /
They who are praised, worshipped, honoured, they who reside at the summit of the universe, the siddhas (perfect, beatified
souls), may they give me health and-enlightenment and supreme
meditation.
arogga-bohi-labham samahi-varam
uttamam dentu //
Verse 7
candesu nimmalayara aiccesu ahiyam
payasagara /
May the siddhas, purer than the moons, more radiant than the suns, and profound
as the oceans, may they show me the road to siddhi
(perfection).
sagara-vara-gambhira siddha siddhim
mama disantu //
In this case, the italicised terms designate all twenty-four Tirthankaras, although in other contexts they may stand for enlightened beings (released souls) in a general manner. However, the term jina is as a rule a synonym for Tirthankara.
