The sacred doctrine which ends the sorrows of birth, old age, and death and that which brings everlasting bliss, which is worshiped by gods, demons and kings. How can, one who understands its essence, ever become careless in following it? ........... ............3
Oh wise men! Pay respectful salutations to the scriptures (shruta dharma) of the Tirthankaras, which are proven to be the most superior doctrine, and the most beneficial in the path of right conduct, and are faithfully worshiped by empyrean gods (vaimänik deva), mansion dwelling gods (bhavanapati deva), luminous gods (jyotishka deva) and forest gods (vyantara deva). Let this sacred doctrine, which includes a detailed description of all the six substances, all the three worlds and the living beings in each, be triumphant. May it be victorious and may it promote the dignity of the other tenets like minor and major vows....

Note - for Kausagga during Pratikraman Oh god of sruta! To worship the scripture, I will perform meditation posture. (kayotsarga)
Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as ever you can.
- John Wesley Mindfulness is waking up and living in harmony with oneself and with the world and appreciating the fullness of each moment of life.
Lord Buddha Religion does not guarantee that there shall be no sorrow or suffering. But it does guarantee that there shall be strength to face them calmly.
