Bhagavān Mahāvira, the wise, Māhana, (Brahmana, non-violent) Great Seer, born in the clan of Kaśyapa, followed without any reservation the aforementioned code of conduct.
- Thus I say.
ANNOTATION 23. During the last two years of homelife and twelve-and- a half years of sådhana, Bhagavăn Mahāvira austerely practised freedom from desires. He had no inhibitions or reservations relating to food, place, and tinie for sleep. Thus he remained completely unaffected by tre demands of the body. He would calmly and cheerfully accept anything that came his way and which was congenial to the accomplishment of his sadhana.
