________________ 50. मन्नहजिणाणसज्झाय- Mannaha Jinanam Sajjhaya 50. Introduction This sutra describes the 36 essential duties of a layperson. As described in this hymn all recommendations are self-explanatory and easy to understand. Since a layperson does not give up worldly possessions completely, these activities should be performed as they are beneficial to one-self. They help a person to become righteous and bring equanimity. Other people who are in close contact with them will also be attracted to join the congregation. 50. मन्नहजिणाणंसज्झाय मन्नह जिणाणमाणं, मिच्छं परिहरह, धरह सम्मत्तं. छव्विह-आवस्सयम्मि, उज्जत्तो होइ पइ-दिवसं... पव्वेस् पोसह-वयं, दाणं सीलं तवो अ भावो अ. सज्झाय नमुक्कारो, परोवयारो अ जयणा अ. ... जिण-पूआ जिण-थणणं, गुरु-थअ साहम्मिआण वच्छल्लं. ववहारस्स य सुद्धी, रह-जत्ता तित्थ-जत्ता य....... .........3. उवसम-विवेग-संवर, भासा-समिई छजीव-करुणा य. धम्मिअ-जण-संसग्गो, करण-दमो चरण-परिणामो. ..........4. संघोवरि बहु-माणो, पुत्थय-लिहणं पभावणा तित्थे. सड्ढाण किच्चमेअं, निच्चं सुगुरू-वएसेणं.. ............................5. 50.
